Dear Friends of Estonia

Your partnership and support through the Friends of Estonia in 2020 has been a testimony to God’s mission and to the strength of the body of Christ, and I want to thank you and celebrate our friendship leadership during this challenging time.

In so many ways this Christmas will be different, and many will need to hear the “good news of great joy for all people”, to help them not to lose heart but to embrace the future. In the midst of this Jesus Christ calls his church to be a visible sign of his presence in the world – I am grateful, we are able to respond to His call together. For some time we have only seen each other on the screen – I sincerely hope and pray we will be able to meet in person in 2021.

I wish You and Your loved ones a merry Christmas and a New Year of exceeding joy and hope.
