We want to wish you a wonderful Christmas and Joyous New Year.  2021 has been a great year of ministry for us.  We are thankful to the Lord for His goodness and grace. This month I had a new experience.  I was traveling across country headed east for church planting and for the first time in my life I hit a deer.  In over a million miles of lifetime driving it was a rude awadening.  To continue reading the update from Paul Hoover, please click on the link below.
