 The Second Flight of the Tribesman- Arriving in Belem, Brazil on August 1, 1949.

Carl and Cora Taylor and their daughters Carleen and Beth (7 & 2), and son Calvin (5) arrived in Brazil ready to help reach the Unreached Tribes. Sixty years later we are all still at it. Dad is in glory, and Hudson, born in 1950, has taken his place. Dad was always speaking to the importance of a World Vision to every Christian he would meet. So our vision has increased and our hearts are stayed on the Lord for His Glory to be spoken of in all the world. Two thousand five hundred languages to go. Mom still passes that challenge on there in Peniel to pastors, believers, and new born babes in Christ. Peniel Bible College’s students are among them when visiting her up on the hill. She will get up and be bright eyed for anyone looking for encouragement.

It has been sixty years of partnership with those who have had the same vision and we thank the Lord for His love in giving us co-laborers, sacrificing year after year. Pastors have been faithful and their people encouraged to participate in all respects. Thank you dear ones. Herman Miller is one who has been at this with us since 1954.

My task the third week of September was a trip to Bryan College to represent NTM to the students.  On the 20th I travelled up to Lynchburg to do the same, but this time with my sister Carleen and her husband Ken Newton.  The Lord used Ken to challenge the Director of Missions while we were in college in the mid 60’s.

My dear Gwen needs prayer for her ministry of teaching each day at Berean Christian School. She accompanies me on some meetings like the one to Tennessee Temple University where they started the Next Steps program and the one we just returned from at Liberty U. during the third weekend of October, mentoring prospective missionaries. 

November 8-11 will be four days of intense ministry at a local church here in Knoxville. They have shown themselves to be disciples of the Lord in regards to missions. John and Barbara Windler from Paraguay will be there with us. Thank you for praying for us.

In 1956 a property was given to New Tribes Mission of Brazil for the express purpose of training laborers to reach the tribal peoples of the world with the Good News. Fifty years later over 1400 laborers have been trained and 350 of these work with NTM of Brazil reaching 50 tribal groups in Brazil and in Africa. Others work with a multitude of mission boards and many are pastoring churches.

There was a youth camp in Peniel just a few days ago. Three hundred youth attended and were challenged to give their lives for reaching the unreached tribal groups around the world. Forty of these youth commited themselves to this task. Each of them will need a team of folks who will stand behind them, just as Gwen and I have had for the last 40 years. Each student will need to be a faithful partner to their churches just as the Apostles were to the church in Antioch.

God has now provided funds to purchase 14 Kodiak airplanes. The Quest Aircraft Company, designers of the Kodiak, received the certification on the airplane this past fall so the production has begun.  “Learn more about the Kodiak Project>>”
