Dear Bryce,
|
|
Greetings in the Name of Christ. Over the
past three months, we have had ten mission teams
serving in Costa Rica, Nepal, St. Lucia,
Estonia, Russia, and Nigeria. God has blessed
us with many amazing opportunities to make a
difference for His Kingdom. Below are three
brief summaries so you may be blessed to know
how to praise God and pray for His work around
the world this fall.

Costa Rica Family Mission
Trip 2007 |
|
The numbers don't tell the
whole story. A total of 48 people went to San
Pedro, Costa Rica, in July. Most had never
before been on a mission trip. Seventeen
families were represented by 21 adults and 27
middle and high school age children. The team
conducted Vacation Bible School (VBS) at two
separate locations. Each day the number of
children that attended grew and grew! We began
with 80 children until we shared the Gospel of
Jesus with over 275 children the last day!
What a mighty God we serve! We
can't wait for 2008!!

Can
you imagine not being able to read the Bible in
English because it had not been translated? For
many people around the world, they are not yet
able to read the Bible in their own language.
For several years, we have been providing
financial support to translate the Bible for the
Komi people in Russia. We are excited to share
that we expect the New Testament to be completed
this next year! Please pray that our Komi
brothers and sisters
in Christ will soon
celebrate that they may read God's Word in their
native tongue.
