Connect Newsletter
December 2020

Dear friends,

As we look back on 2020, we thank God for many wonderful ministry opportunities during this challenging year. In this newsletter, you will find beautiful stories of God’s goodness as he moved through his people in the U.S. and overseas.

We also hope you’ll look ahead with us as we prayerfully discover new ways we can partner with the Lord. Below you will find materials to encourage and lead us as we step into 2021 and beyond.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Brethren in Christ U.S.!
