Church Planting in Washington State

Dear Praying Friends,

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior. This past month has been a busy one on the deputation trail. Four new churches have gotten the burden for Washington State and have taken us on for support. They are Southside Baptist Church in Yadkinville, NC, Deliverance Baptist Church in Ronda, NC, Victory Baptist Church in Tobaccoville, NC, and Silver Run Baptist Church in Cheshire, Ohio. We are excited about these new churches joining our ministry.
Our support level is still increasing, but we still have quite a bit to go in order to be able to leave for Washington by our goal of the end of August. Please make this a matter of daily prayer that God will provide the means for us to leave for Washington in August. We are burdened with the huge responsibility that the Lord has given us to spread the gospel to the people of Washington State and we want to get started as soon as possible.
This month Tim had the opportunity to attend a Church Planting School hosted by Shining Light Baptist Church in Monroe, NC. It was such a learning experience to be able to listen to experts in this field such as Tom Sexton, Bobby Roberson, Earl Jessup, and many others. This was a tremendous blessing and provided us with so much information about starting a church in Washington. We are anxious to get to Washington and put all of this into practice for the glory of the Lord.
Jennifer’s pregnancy is still going really well and we praise the Lord for that blessing. We are expecting our first son, Jason Timothy, on May 7. Please keep us in your prayers that everything will go well and that Jennifer and the baby will be healthy.
Please continue to pray for us daily that we will be able to raise the prayer and financial support we need to leave for Washington in August. Thank you to all of the churches who are already faithfully praying for and supporting us. We are praying for all of you that the Lord is blessing and working in your lives. May God richly bless you.

In Christ,


Missionaries Tim and Jennifer Wall
