"When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained: What is
man that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou
visitest him?" Psalm
8:3-4
We have just returned from a Mission Conference in Rainelle, West
Virginia. As we made the trip we were amazed at such beautiful
scenery along the way. The trees were just beginning to change
colors and it was a beautiful sight! The Lord has allowed
us to see many beautiful parts of the world since we have
been in missions. When we consider the one that made all
of this beauty with just the work of his fingers, we along with
the Psalmist ask, What is man that thou art mindful of him?" To
think that such a God can use us!! It does not make us feel
proud or haughty, but it humbles our hearts. We are also
humbled that you would entrust us to be a part of your mission
family. Thank
you for your faithful prayers and financial support.
Since our last prayer letter we made a trip to Montana to help
one of our missionaries, Brother Billy Carter introduce Faith Promise
Missions to his church. It was a great blessing to see his
church get hold of this and we are excited to see how God is going
to use this mission church to help put other missionaries on the
field. That is what it is all about! In the month of
September I preached at two other churches and helped them with
their Faith Promise. I preached a Mission Sunday for my home church
and was glad to get to be with my church family. I also preached
a revival and a Homecoming which I really enjoyed.
During the month of October I will be preaching in five different
Mission Conferences. Please pray for me physically and spiritually. I
get tired physically but I feel a great need to work while it is
day. I want to help churches see the great need of evangelizing
the world and I also want to help my missionaries as they strive
to get to the field and those on the field as well.
The two men that we interviewed in August at the Mission Board
have been accepted and will be beginning deputation soon. Please
remember these men in your prayers. They are Brother Steven
Sykes going to New Mexico and Brother Rusty Pruitt going to Montana. Also
please help us pray that the Lord of the harvest will continue
to send good men and their families to help us reach our own country
with the gospel.
