We began full-time deputation about a year and ten months ago. Since that time we have traveled many tens of thousands of miles, we have been in 160+ churches, and have seen the Lord’s hand of protection, provision and blessing through His people and churches in a marvelous way! We want to thank each of you who have had a part – whether in giving, encouraging or providing for lodging or other needs. We especially thank those who faithfully pray, support and communicate! You all have been a blessing to us and share in the eternal rewards of souls saved and lives impacted! But, please don’t stop yet!
There is still much to be done! We still have several meetings and a mission conference left before I leave for Guatemala on Feb. 17th with Sarah and Jonathan to attend a one-month Spanish Immersion language course. Because I will be out of the country for about a month, I will not to send out a prayer letter in February, but just because we are “out of sight”, please don’t let us be “out of mind.” I will try and get an update out as soon as possible upon my return in March. Please remember Ann, Rachel, Jeremiah, Abigail and Joel (and Baby) who will remain in Texas. Please join us in praying that the baby doesn’t decide to come early before our planned return on March 15th!
