The pestilence continues here in Korea.  However, the work goes on!  Covid is bad but for Joy and I watching our people leave is worse.  Since our last letter we have had two more families rotate out.  I have been a missionary to the military for 22 years and the pain of seeing our people leave never gets any better.  To continue reading the update from David Lewis, please click the link below.
