Almost a year ago we graduated from the New Tribes Missionary Training.  The waiting to head over seas has been years and years.  The waiting for tribal people to here a Creators Talk of hope and reconciliation, justice and salvation, over 15 years.  Many tribal people have been waiting for this liberating message for over 15 years. Why God?

The article below is huge part of why we desire to serve in Africa.  Be encouraged to know that all over the world NTM is sending out Missionaries to the unreached.  Yet the harvest is plentiful and the laborers few.  When certain things come up causing us to lose focus on the task, we get encouraged by the passage below to keep moving forward to be apart of this great commission.

“We want to hear this creators Talk.  We want it so much that we are waiting for the time that you, along with the Bible teachers, will bring it to us.  When the time comes that you are ready to tell us of the Creators message, just send us word and we will come.  We will gather everybody from our area.  We will all hike the trails all the way down to where you are and we will live in your area for as long as two (moons) months.  We will do this all just so we can hear the Creator’s message.  If you would rather hike to our territory and tell us in our own houses, we will wait for you here.  When you come, we will provide everything you need, including food, so that you can live among us.  We will provide for you so that you can stay and we can finally hear this big message.  We want to hear this message, and even now we wait for the day you can teach it to us”–EKAPITAA, unreached tribe in Indonesia.

Sometimes we can easily be burdened by the tasks or thoughts of learning Portuguese, raising financial support, being away from friends and family for years, and even sickness.  When we hear of  fellow missionaries fighting the good fight and putting there lives on the line for tribal people all around the world, we are encouraged.  And as the Lord says, “I will never leave you nor forsake you”.

Our prayer requests-

1.  Continue to pray for our health and strength as we prepare with only 47 days left.

2.  Worship keeps our minds focused.  Pray for time with our Lord to be held firm.

3.  Our continued financial support.  We are still looking for ministry partners monthly.

4. Last minute prep and stress to be dealt with appropriatly

 So here is what’s going on with the Warners:

We have only got 57 days left before our family packs up 4 suitcases and moves our entire lives to Africa.  That is not a lot of time and so we have committed to having our checklist done by December 1st so that we can see and say goodbye to anyone who wants a hug from the Warners.

 For the last week and a half our entire family has had the flu and so that’s why we haven’t seen anyone.  The good news is that God has been teaching us a lot through being sick.  He has slowed us down and is trying to teach us to be content in any situation.  He is trying to teach us to be servants rather than be served.  Most importantly He is teaching us that without Him, WE WILL FAIL IN AFRICA.

On November the 15th at 7:00am we are selling all our stuff and the things we cant take with us.  We are having a garage sale at Generation Church. The address is 1106 Whaley street, Oceanside CA, 92054.  Come buy our stuff.

 Our Portuguese study has been very slow over the last month so here are the prayer requests from us:

1.  Pray that all our paperwork will be processed and done very soon so we can devote all our time to meeting with people and Portuguese.

2.  Pray for our hearts to be encouraged as we have only 57 days left.

3.  We are not at our financial recommendation yet.  Pray for ministry partners  and our support to increase.

4. Pray for our continued health and for our partner Jerry who is raising his support and getting ready to leave in 57 days as well.

Keep informed and email us if you want to see us before we leave.

Wow.

Caden is getting so big and it’s a constant reminder of how fast the time is flying. October is almost over and we are just realizing this is the last “fall” season with pumkins and pie we will have for a while.  And with Christmas getting closer, we can only wonder what our future holidays will look like without pine trees in our living rooms and cool weather outside.

We feel like we will be ready when the day comes to board that plane and start this new adventure. But we can’t help but wonder what that really means. Reading emails and skyping with friends on the field now is helping to cushion that change in our minds, and we are just trying to work hard to get everything in place before December so we can actually just enjoy our time with family.

SO, on that note, we thought we’d be frank and tell you that we are freaking out. Some days we don’t want to go at all. Some days we wonder what life would be like if we stayed here, made our careers in sports and in music or nutrition, bought a house, lived the American Dream…and reached out to people here in the States. SO much easier. So much more comfortable. But then we were reminded of the words that Jesus said when he grabbed our hearts so long ago:

“DO NOT STORE UP FOR YOURSELVES TREASURES ON EARTH, WHERE MOTH AND RUST DESTROY,  AND WHERE THIEVES BREAK IN AND STEAL. bUT STORE UP FOR YOURSELVES TREASURES IN HEAVEN, WHERE MOTH AND RUST DO NOT DESTROY, AND WHERE THIEVES DO NOT BREAK IN AND STEAL. FOR WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE YOUR HEART WILL BE ALSO.”  matthew 6:19-21

He goes on to tell us that we can’t love and serve Both Him and money. It’s one or the other. But that he will take care of us and provide everything we need, and that worry is pointless.

Thank You GOD! for giving us comfort and truth and a reality check. We are so glad we are able to read his words and know him better, and live life in fullness.

It’s for those people that don’t have his words to comfort them and teach them truth that we are going. Someone took the time to tell us, and we can’t imagine where we’d be without Him.

Friends, family and coworkers.

It is with joy that we write this update to let you know of all the 
things that we desperately need prayer for.
As you know, in our Christian faith, prayer is our communication line 
with our Lord.  It's where we rest with our Lord and thank Him, and 
talk to Him about our struggles.
It's where we intercede on the behalf of others. It's where we regain 
strength for everyday.

As we prepare to leave for Africa in 80 days, please pray for 
these important things.

- for our daily encouragement as the day approaches
- for our family who are going to struggle with sadness when we leave
- for the encouragement of our partner Jerry.  He is flying to Africa 
with us and will be leaving family. As with us he is still in need of 
monthly financial partners in his ministry. Pray for his strengthening.
-  pray for good health,  this is very important to us. We need to be 
at 100% for ministry in Africa.

Your prayers are VITAL-  please take the time.

We appreciate your partnership and love you guys
Email us if you need prayer or a cup of coffee.
The Warners.

Take a journey with us to Mozambique 101.

Where is Mozambique located?

Mozambique is located on the southeast coast of Africa. It is bound by Swaziland to the south, South Africa to the southwest, Zimbabwe to the west, Zambia and Malawi to the northwest, Tanzania to the north and the Indian Ocean to the east.

 What language will you speak over there?  Portuguese is the national language.  Mozambique gained its independence from Portugal in 1975.  We are currently studying using Rosetta Stone.

 What will you eat?  Corn is the traditional food crop.  Chicken, seafood, bananas, and cashews are also part of main dishes.

Where will you live? We will be living in a small city in northern Mozambique during language study.  After about a year and a half we hope to be relocated into a village with a team.  There we will start the church planting process.

What is the climate like?  Mozambique has a tropical climate with two seasons, a wet season from October to March and a dry season from April to September.  Rainfall is heavy along the coast. Average temperature ranges are 55 to 75 degrees in July to 22 to 72 to 88 degrees in February.

How big is Mozambique and how many people live there?  Mozambique is about twice the size of California and has 22 million people living there.   There are 44 different language groups.  New Tribes is currently working in three villages and wants to work in at least six more within Mozambique.  There are people living in Mozambique that still do not have the Bible in their own language.

Will you still have internet?  Yes we will have internet and would love to keep in touch.  If you like Skype then you can chat with us when we are in the city.  We will find ways to keep everyone up to date on whats going on.

 So there you have it.  Some simple questions many may have wanted to know.  We currently have 97 days until we depart and are currently at 44 percent of our pledged support.   We are currently recieving 30 percent of our monthly 44 percent pledged support.    Praise God for that increase.  We are slowly reaching our goal. 

The concert was a success.  To all of you that came out to show us your support, we appreciate it. 

HERE IS THE LATEST NEWS:

–We leave tomorow for a one week trip to South Carolina where we will be meeting up with a pastor who is a good friend of ours, as well as his church who support us as their missionaries.  Pray for lots of great opportunities to share with the people we meet.

ONE HUNDRED AND NINE DAYS LEFT 109– Thats correct! In 109 days our family will be moving to Mozambique as careermissionaries.  Pray for our transition! We are going to be a part of a team bringing the Gospel to the unreached villages in South East Africa.

FUNDING–As New Tribes Missionaries we are completely dependent on monthly contributions from our supporting church and individuals.  We are currently at around 30 PERCENT of our reccomended support. Please consider praying about how you may be involved and realize it’s not just finances but a relationship with you we desire.  We need you to be our support, our backbone, as we commit our hearts to reaching the unreached in Africa.  Click this link to join our supporting team–http://www.ntm.org/wp/tim_warner/give/
