December 2018

We just had our annual harp concert on the 7th of December at Garden Spot Village in New Holland, with 27 harps (the most we’ve had thus far!). I told the audience that we were short one harp (because in Revelation 5:8 it says that God has 28 harps around His throne!). We were also privileged to have a guest harpist come from Canada (Paraguayan harpist Eduard Klassen).

It’s been a good year with Lyme disease behind us now... both Alex and Paul are done with treatments and are in good health. Sue struggles with high blood pressure, and visited the ER a couple times, but has it under control with some medication. We had a nice family gathering in September (Joanna & family came from CO),and we were able to celebrate Alex’s special birthday (he’s officially a senior citizen now- 65!). Thankful that Alex is now enjoying good health right now and is busy making lots of harps.

Shortly after the picture was taken (above) with all our grandchildren, we were blessed with the birth of another grandchild: Anaya Juliette on October 26th to Dena & Nate. The harp business is doing well, and Alex keeps busy with making harps for customers all over the world. Sue continues as secretary to the business and enjoys this season of life with grown children and grandchildren. The boys are still living at home... Anthony and Mark continue to help Alex in the shop making harps, and Paul enjoys being part of the cast at Sight & Sound Theater. We thank God for His many blessings to us, and look forward to what He has for us in 2019.
