As I am sure you all know, John Bloom passed away August 15 after a lifetime of serving the Lord. This is an update from his wife Ruth.

Dear Friends,

I am so grateful for your support of me. As I adjust to my new single life I am having to do many things that I was happy to let John do. I want to be careful to let you know how much I value your support in prayer and gifts for my living expenses.

I have resumed my work as bookkeeper. I have always felt that God gave me this job even though I did not seek it…at all. I have learned so much about the Lord during my time handling the funds for the Mission. Some of the lessons were very exhausting emotionally. But God is faithful and I am much more in love with Him thru the things I have suffered.

So thankful,

Ruth
