December 2019 Update
As we reflect on God’s goodness over the past year, we want to say a big word of “THANKS” to each of you who make up our prayer and support team. We echo Paul’s sentiments in Philippians 1:3-5, “I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy, For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;”
We are thankful for a wonderful month visiting several more churches and sharing what the Lord has been doing in the UK. Over Thanksgiving, it was a blessing to spend a good amount of time with Teri’s family. Also, we really enjoyed having some friends from London visit with us this month and bring us some of our favorite snacks from the UK!
Please pray especially for Northwest Baptist Church in Derry, Northern Ireland this month and next. They are planning to move into the new building in January. There is still some renovation work to be completed, but they are planning to begin holding services during the last stages of work. Please pray for God to provide the remaining $16,500 they need to finish the work. Mark any donations for this: “Derry City Building.”
Also, the Our Generation Training Center based at our home church is growing and in need of more space to house and train future missionaries. They are raising money right now to purchase land and build housing and classrooms for up to 100 students. Please pray and consider giving an end-of-the-year donation toward this exciting project. If 400 people gave $5000 toward the need, the project would be complete. To find out more and give toward this, please visit www.worldevangelismcenter.org.
We are looking forward to a good month of meetings and ministry, as well as spending time with family over Christmas. Thank you so much for your faithful prayers and support.
