September Ministry

Karum_Steve_Pat_1Late August into early September we were in Florida just finishing a workshop for 19 missionaries from 4 different missions. We had a great time together. It will be great to hear months from now how this workshop has impacted them.

We arrived home on the 4th of September and started unpacking and unwinding from our six weeks on the road. We were able to visit New Tribes Aviation in McNeal, Arizona. “Where’s McNeal?”, you say. Good question. McNeal is just a few miles from the Mexico.

While there we connected with some missionaries on home assignment and some who are on staff at NTM Aviation.

In few days we leave for Fresno, California. An opportunity has opened up for us to share our ministry with Northwest church. Pray for safety in travel, we will be an encouragement to those we meet, and that we can clearly communicate our ministry to the church.

SYIS Chihuahua, Mexico, January 2009

In January Steve co-facilitated a Sharpening Your Interpersonal Skills workshop for Frontiers. Less than a week later Steve and Patty drove to Chihuahua, Mexico to co-facilitate another SYIS workshop for New Tribes Mission, United Indian Mission, and AmeriTribes. It was a great opportunity to serve the Body of Christ who are literally working around the world. Including both workshops there were 48 missionaries that we were privileged to minister to.

We hit the road for a two month trip on February 18th. This is one of our longest trips yet. We’re stopping in Atlanta, Chattanooga, Charlotte, NTM-USA headquarters in Sanford, Florida and then Arkansas. Pray that our car will run well, it has over 140,000 miles on it. Pray for a safe trip. We’re visiting missionaries, relatives, and facilitating one more S.Y.I.S. workshop in Florida and two conflict resolution workshops in Florida.
