Recently

here

at

the

BOULEVARD CHURCH OF CHRIST in Toledo,

OH

our pastor started bringing sermons on praise.

He

suggests

that

in this

season particularly

we

should praise

God for new

life,

for

color

for

joy

and for

peace.

The

messages have

been great

encouragement to

us—especially in

helping us to

see God

at

work

amid trials and

problems.

For instance the last week in May our youngest daughter

Sheri,

was

badly injured in a freak

automobile

accident. We

praise God

that

no lives

were

lost,

and

we

see

how

He

is work

ing

even

in all this.

You may remember that when we wrote to you last, Ivia

was

be

ginning

to

walk again after

a

long struggle

with

arthritis. In

early Hay we travelled to the

Midwest so

Charles could perform

the wedding

ceremony

in

Tulsa

which united

our grandson

Clif

ford and his lovely fiancee Susannah. On the

trip,

we managed

to see most of

our

children, grand-, and

great-grandchildren.

Ivia made the trip just fine, but while in Missouri

"threw

her

hack out"

which brought on

a

severe case

of

sciatica. Thanks to

the

Lord and good doctors, she

is making

a

slow

but

sure re

covery.

WE

MOVED/ The

Lord

opened to

us

a place

to live with

one

wore

room, giving

us a place for

office

work.

Here, we

also have

the

space we needed

for

Ivia's

hospitality ministry,

and

to have

family and friends put their feet under

our

table. On

May

30, a

host

(29

helpers ) of our Boulevard family

rallied around

to

move us from our one-bedroom

apartment

to this larger

one

in

the same

complex. We're

now

at 4913

Heatherdowns Blvd, Apt 6.

Reason

for the

Season

December 1993

Dearest Christian friends

As

another

year

comes to

a

close/

we as

always/

stop to

thank God

for

all of you/

who by

your prayers and

suppor t let us

continue in the Lord's work here in Toledo

at

Boulevard Church

of Christ

and in

Italy

with

the

Xtaliano family.

Guiseppe

is

as

always,

a

true

and faithful servant of

the

Lord, as is his

whole

family, and we

praise

God for them.

Our support

being

much lower

this

year

has

forced us to cut

down on Italy dollars also,

but

we know God

is

able and

Boulevard is doing all

it

can so your

continued

support is

needed to keep

us

here.

Again thank you

for

caring and sharing as

together

we

serve

HIM Hebrews 13:24

— They of

Italy

salute

you.

The

"Phipps"

Charles & Ivia

The Italiano family

Rosetta,
