Secret Stuff and Jesus Stuffies!

Where We Stand
Hello friend, I hope this finds you well. I realize I haven't written in a while, which will make tonight's letter seem unusual as it is of a more serious note than I normally send, but I've got the state of the world on my heart and I wanted to reach out to this community to discuss where we are, as I see it.
