Tribal Kids that have no opportunity to hear...

Tribal Kids that have no opportunity to hear...

UPDATES:

We have finished our busiest month, and now we are heading into the month of September with a little more traveling out of Michigan.  Omaha is the start of our list of events, which we leave the 11th, and have meetings with 7 different church leaders.  Then we will participate in a missions conference at LeMars Bible Church in LeMars, Iowa on the 17th-20th. So we are excited for the opportunity God has given us to share our future ministry among churches and individuals.

PRAISES:

In the month of August, we have added 3 more couples to Ethnos 77 team and are grateful for their generosity and giving spirits.  We are having plenty of opportunities to present our ministry to Churches and Individuals!  The word is Out!

PLANS:

We planned on leaving this coming January to Indonesia, but through God and other people, we have decided to postpone our departure date until April due to a slow process of raising funds.  NTM leadership highly suggest not going overseas with a low financial status.  There will be enough stress already of many things and would not want the added stress of not having enough money to work and provide for the family.

Pray:

· Daily walks with God

· Strength as we do all of our travels

· Be an encouragement to others and be encouraged from others

· God would continue to provide opportunities to present our ministry & God would continue to build up Ethnos 77

East Coast Trip

Hanging out at the Washington Monument

    Heading out east for 3 weeks is hard on the little guy.  The first week took quite an adjustment on Israel, which was a lesson of patience for the parents, if you know what I mean fellow parents. 

    We had a great 9 days at Shawnee Baptist in NJ, where we were invited to be a part of the Missions Conference.  This is where I was about to present our ministry to the church and Melanie was supposed to be a part but then Israel had a melt down so I had to part without my wife, but it still went great.

    As we did our long travels of meetings with churches and individuals, we were able to site see at Philadelphia, D.C., and Ocean City. 

    This trip was very draining, but also encouraging being among fellow brothers and sisters of Christ.  We were blessed with hospitality wherever we went, and also we were able to add members to our Team 77 !!! 

    We see God’s hand in all of this and we are blessed to be a part of Him and His Work!
