We're Cruising!

Sondra & Charles - living, breathing gifts from the Father!

Classes are under way! Our friends (the Rosen’s) have their sea legs and are fully cruising with us and enjoying the adventure.  It’s so great to have partners in our mission here.  Each day we hear more stories that touch our hearts in a profound way.  Now that we are beginning to build relationships with our students, we are hearing about serious financial crisis in families, need for eyeglasses, medical care, and school fees for siblings.  Some families have a basic need for food.  Our hearts are moved to compassion and yet, we don’t have the finances to care for all the needs.  Please pray with us that others will open their hearts to give – both locally as well as friends around the world.  As we have slimmed down our personal budget we are able to help some, but it’s just not enough.  It’s another lesson in prayerful perseverance.

The most exciting and rewarding part of our job is welcoming a new believer into the family of God and last week – we welcomed five of our students.  We are rejoicing with the angels and invite you to join the celebration.  Now, we have much work to do as we nurture and disciple.  One question we hear and see in their eyes, “If God loves us so much – why are we suffering?”  We need wisdom as we counsel these precious new family members. 

Thank you for your support and prayers!  We are able to do what we do - because of your continued support!  We pray God blesses YOU!  We can't thank you enough.
