Dear Beryl and Alistair

We have tried to contact you a number of times now by phone and haven’t succeeded, which of course can possibly mean that it is best so. It isn’t easy to know about all of these things. The thing that I believe neither of us can deny is that, at the moment, things between us aren’t really what either of us wish they were. In one sense the reasons behind it all are less important than the fact that before our fellowship with each other can be what the Lord would hope it could be, the feelings that separate us at this point need to be dealt with – whatever this may entail.

My suggestion is that we could get together with each other to somehow try to get a better understanding for each others feeling on these things with the hope that ‘understanding’ will bring about the mutual respect and appreciation that perhaps is one of the basic conditions for the love that true fellowship demands.

Timing is important and it is possible that now isn’t the suitable time – I am sure you folks have suggestions as to this. Perhaps you have other suggestions as well as I don’t feel I really know what to suggest. All I know is that my prayer is that we could have the fellowship with you folks that we have felt we have had in times past, and that this fellowship could be a strength to our families in our endeavours to be true to God.

Hoping for a reply,

Edgar

Greetings from the family and also from my mom and dad.
