In the months of February and March, we will be visiting with some of our prayer partners at their local churches.  We’ll be in the Camp Verde area on February 8th at the Camp Verde Christian Church.  We’ll be in Tucson the end of February, and  on March 1st, we’ll be in Kearny at Fellowship Baptist Church.  If that’s in your neck-of-the-woods, please stop in for a visit and hear about our ministry!  If we happen to drive through your area en-route, let’s meet up and  fellowship together.  We’d be happy to share, in more detail, about all that God is doing around the world through CrossWay International.  Maybe we could meet for lunch?

Between church meetings and overseas travel, I am taking two Spanish courses, hoping to grasp the language quickly and be able to communicate clearly, on my own, in the Spanish language.  I am also continuing some biblical studies online at Grace School of Theology.

Plans are underway for my next trip to the Philippines.  I’ll be traveling in May with some of my friends from Ponderosa Bible Church.  Ed and Jan Miller and Pam Palmer will be teaching over 300 children as well as many of their parents!  And when they are not teaching the children, they will be moving through the community doing street evangelism.   I am very excited about this opportunity to spread the good news of Jesus Christ and to also train them in discipleship.  Pastor Joe Falkner and I will be traveling to another location during that week to minister to the men of the House Of Hope.

Shortly after the Philippine ministry, I’ll be heading back to Nicaragua for a Bible-based sports camp.  Our team will be teaching some sporting techniques to the local youth from many of the areas where we have previously shared the gospel.  With this opportunity we will also be teaching Bible lessons in the mornings and evenings, and discipling one-on-one.  This will be an excellent opportunity to really speak into the lives of at-risk youth, and share the gospel clearly and freely.

Prayer Requests:

–Travel safety as we move around the state of Arizona in our travel trailer.

–That I can grasp the Spanish language fully and speak it clearly on my own.

–Philippine ministry and funds to feed the 300+ children each day of the five we will be with them.

–Nicaragua Sports Camp – funds, workers, safety, spiritual success.

–Most importantly, that the gospel will go forth clearly, and that many would trust Christ for salvation!
