As I write this column, Maudine and I are filled with gratitude and love. We are grateful to the Metro Church of Christ in Gresham, Oregon for sponsoring and partially supporting us as we develop WEI.
We are grateful for our co-workers Debbie Henry, Tom and Angie Langley, Bob and Jan Towell and their grandson Jonathan.
We are grateful for our WEI board of directors, Doug Davis, Art Edwards, Jim Fox, and Bill Morgan.
We are grateful for our WEI teachers (postal, Internet, and short-term missionaries), and for the national preachers who use WEI to seek and save the people in their communities around the world.
We are grateful to YOU, our supporters who have sacrificed so much to fulfill the great commission. Without you, WEI would not exist.
We are grateful to President David Burks and Vice-President Bruce McLarty for honoring us at the Harding University Bible Lectureship.
We are especially grateful to David and Lola Crouch for surprising me with a belated 80th birthday party at the annual WEI dinner at Harding. They submitted to us a huge printed check to WEI (see picture below) totaling $3,966.25. This will help offset our current deficit. Thank you, beloved teachers and supporters.
God is good, and so are his people. We are praying that God will raise up more people like you.
Thank you, and God bless you.
Love,
—Dick & Maudine Ady
