Trusting God in Trying Times Dear Pastor, congregation and friends,
I t never ceases to amaze me how in moments of necessity and difficulty I tend to draw nearer to God and I realize my total and complete dependence on Him. This has certainly been the case with many of the churches that we have visited in recent months. In a time when all we hear is doom and gloom about the financial state of our country and when many people are losing their jobs we have seen churches grow in their faith and confidence in God. I cannot begin to express my gratitude for all of the churches that have been faithfully supporting us while on deputation. We would like to inform our supporters as well as those who plan to support us in the near future that we are working as hard as we can to raise our support to be in Spain in 2010 and we will continue to work while in Spain to see souls saved, churches established and leaders trained. We will serve Him until he takes us home. Thank you for your liberality in this time of recession!
Deputation NewsThese past two months we have had the wonderful opportunity to visit 18 new churches in our endeavour to arrive in Spain in the spring of 2010. As of now we are at 42% of our needed support. We look forward to sharing with all of you that we are past the half way mark. All we need is a push from many of the churches that we have visited and we know that we will arrive at our goal in no time. All we need is to complete our deputation and we will be able to get right into the work. We won't have to learn the language or adjust to the culture in any extraordinary way. Please pray how you could have a part in helping us make it to Spain.
This month I had the wonderful blessing of being ordained at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church. The reason we chose this month is because my parents are leaving for the field March 31st and they wanted to be in my ordination. During the ordination I had the privilege of hearing my father present the charge and my pastor, Lamar Rackley, preach the message. I was blessed to have my uncle, Lee Lawrence, in the ordination council. He used to be a missionary to Spain and is now the assistant pastor at my church. I was also able to have my other uncle, Carlos Arce, who is a missionary to Venezuela. Both of these men have known me from when I was young and they have had a great influence in my life. One of the pastors that came was Alberto Puente. He was saved under my father’s ministry in Spain and is now serving as the Spanish pastor at Madison Baptist Church. As he placed his hands on my head he prayed that God would use me in Spain to see souls saved. My heart was touched as I remembered how he was saved and his life changed by the power of the gospel and now he was praying that God would use me to reach his people. Thank you once again for your prayers and generosity towards our family. God Bless. |
