Hello from the White Mountains of Arizona. We are already into the middle of the year, time is going so fast. We have a blessing to share with you. We are now in our new building !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AMEN. So much has been going on here, a

very busy time for us. We just started our 5^th week in the building. The church people are so excited as well as our family to be in the building. This has been a spiritual up lift to see what God has done. We are planning on doing the church dedication services July 11.

We just started Sunday School. For the last 6 ½ years we did not have it, because there was no space . Pray that God will send us workers for the ministry. Once we moved in the building, we have had visitors at almost every service. As we canvas our area the people have been more responsive to listen and come to visit. This has helped with the morale of the church people. Continue to pray for the people to be more open as we visit them.

In the last few weeks I have been preaching on the importance of the church. Pray for our people to see the need to be more faithful to the work. The Lord’s work is the most important work there is, and so many have never seen the blessings it gives. One of our men in the church has been very sick, he is now in the valley in the hospital. His name is Mr. Bernard Corbett. Mr. Corbett will not be able to return to the Mountain because of his health conditions. He was at deaths door about one week ago. The nursing home ministry is doing fine. Each time we go, we find someone missing, that has passed on. So many are so ill.

Sandy and the kids are doing fine. They are trying to finish up the school year. Sandy just finished planting the garden, trying to keep up with school and the church work too. Many of you may have seen on the news about the drought in the Western States. Currently we have 2 fires burning in Arizona. The fire season is upon us, and they are telling us we can see another bad year. This past Monday and Tuesday we had a fire in the Vernon area. With the help of airplanes, they dropped water and fire retard and it was put out. Please pray for us and the White Mountains to be spared this fire season.

We would like to thank you for all your faithful prayers and for supporting the ministry here in Arizona. Each of you make up this ministry. May the Lord bless each of you.

Yours in Christ,

Nathanael sends his thanks for

the birthday cards he received

April 4^th.
