        As much as I've tried to include every single details, there were events, photos and people which I have missed out.  I am thankful to God for everything that happens, and every person we met.  Needless to say, the most important event in year 2015 is the passing of my father-in-law.  Till this day, we are still missing him.  Yet, there are so many things we are grateful to God for.

        We pray for God's grace to continue to abound richly in our lives in year 2016.  That we may continue to grow into the likeness of our dear Lord Jesus.
