"And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles." Acts 14:27

Once again, it is time for us to rehearse or report to you what God has done for us these last two months. First of all , we thank you for your faithful prayers and financial support. You have help make it possible for us to go and open the door of faith to those who do not know Christ as their Saviour. For this we will be eternally grateful. We pray for you faithfully and never take your sacrifices and kindness for granted.

The month of May was a very busy month for us. I preached one revival and two mission conferences. The last part of the month we had the Midwestern Camp Meeting in Pierre, South Dakota. Thank you for helping financially and with your prayers. There were a lot of missionaries, preachers and lay members that got help. It was a wonderful week of spiritual refreshment.

During the month of June, I will be in three different mission meetings. We will also be having the week of Orientation for our missionaries at the Mission Board this month. This is a week of training and Jan and I both will be teaching classes there. Please pray for us that we can be used to help and encourage our men and their wives as they prepare for the field.

SPECIAL PRAISE! God continues to give us good men to serve in North America. Macedonia will have interviewed three new men and their families by the end of the month. Also, Brother Tim Wall, his wife Jennifer and their son Jason left for the field this month. There are two other families that plan to leave in the near future. Thanks for helping us be in the most exciting work in the world, reaching souls.
