The April 2020 issue of the Pacific Union Recorder was delayed due to printing and mailing difficulties related to the coronavirus crisis, and this has also impacted the release date for the May 2020 magazine. Our editorial staff of the Recorder join with the officers and staff of the Pacific Union Conference in recognizing the extraordinary response to this crisis from our members, churches, schools, hospitals, and ministries. Our prayers are with those whose lives have been disrupted by COVID-19. We
remain steadfast in our hope and faith, remembering the words of the prophet Isaiah:
But those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
—Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)
