"Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise:
be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
" Psalms 100:4

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Saviour. As the cool air of fall approaches, we know that the Holiday season is right around the corner. Thanksgiving will be here in just a few weeks. As we consider the many things we have to be thankful for, we are constantly reminded of the goodness of God. God has been so good to all of us. We all need to be careful this Thanksgiving season to stop and thank God for all of His many blessings that He has bestowed upon us. We would also like to thank each of you for your support: financial, prayer, and otherwise. We know that we would not be able to do what we do without each of you.

Praise
We have been busy these past few months and thank the Lord for it. God has answered a tremendous prayer request for us. We have been praying for some time about being able to go full-time into deputation. As of October 1, we did that. We stepped out by faith and simply trusted the Lord to meet every need. I am overwhelmed to tell you that He did just that. He has blessed us in so many ways. We are now able to devote all of our time to our deputation and getting to the field as quickly as possible. Currently, we are at 25% of our support.

The months of October and November are mission conference months at many churches. During the month of October we were in several mission conferences and are scheduled to be in a number of conferences in November. These are always exciting times. Please pray that the churches would be able to increase their mission programs and include us in them.

Prayer Requests
The Lord has blessed us with traveling safety thus far. Please continue to pray that He would watch over us as we travel. Also, during the month of November we will be spending some time in southern Louisiana. Please pray for our safety there and that God would direct us as to exactly where He wants us to start our work. We want to be exactly where He wants us. Also, while we are there we are planning to capture some footage for a video presentation we are wanting to put together. Help us pray that we would be able to get a video projector to showcase this presentation as we go into churches.

We have had the privilege of sharing our burden in a number of churches in the year 2005. Many people have commented that their eyes were opened to the tremendous need in Louisiana. Please help us pray that some of the churches that we have already been to would take us on for support.

Another new year will be upon us real soon. Our calendars are beginning to fill up, but we still have many dates open in 2006. Help us pray that more churches would open their doors for us to come and share our burden for the people of southern Louisiana.

Again, thank you for your prayers and support. As we enter Thanksgiving we know that one of the many things we have to be thankful for is your support. Thank you for entrusting us to be your light to the people of southern Louisiana.
