2015 EASTER GREETINGS
FROM THE STEVE CRANE FAMILY
We wish you
all the blessings of our living Lord Jesus this Easter holiday and always.
It’s hard for us to believe, but in June we will have lived in our house in Coatesville for 10 years. It’s the longest period of time either of us has lived in the same house during our lifetime. Are we finally becoming stable?
In February Steve completed his ministry at Maple Grove Mennonite. The church gave us a meaningful and tearful send-off. Currently Steve is exploring missionary service in Cuba and Caribbean. He will travel to Cuba on June 1st. Pray that the visa process will be positive. In the meantime, Steve has taken on more home duties; he continues in ministry with pulpit supply, counseling, consulting, and writing.

On a fun
side, Steve joined the Happy Days Ukulele Band which meets at Tel Hai. Along
with his brother, Bob, he also provides music programs at adult day care and
retirement communities.
Francesca continues with Bridge of Hope Lancaster and Chester Counties (bridgeofhopelancchest.org). In December she completed 10 years as executive director.
We both enjoy our grandchildren; Daniel (10) and Hannah (8) Jacke live nearby. We don’t see Morgan (6), Maya (4) and Mercy (1) Mangrich as often because they live in Evanston, IL.

David continues to work at Brian’s House
Enterprises (brianshouse.org/brians-house-enterprises/vocational-services). He
leaves home each day about 8:30 am and rides Rover to the work facility in
Exton. His work includes sorting and shredding. Last year Brian’s House
Enterprises moved from Downingtown to the Exton facility. It was a rough
transition for David, but he’s finally made the change. We appreciate the work
of Robin, David’s supervisor.
We wish God’s Grace and Peace in your lives,
