    TSP UPDATE

    SIX MORE PEOPLE LOVE JESUS

    During the TSP six of the twenty-five non-

    christians professed faith in Jesus. There were

    three girls and three guys. Please pray for our

    follow up with these students and for them to

    see that Jesus is the reason we have truth, faith,

    hope and love.

    30 BELIEVERS GET EQUIPPED

    We had about thirty believers join us on our

    TSP this year to be further discipled in their

    faith. Pray that they would take back to their

    families and campuses what they learned and

    that they would see that Jesus is their good and

    faithful shepherd.

    25 STUDENTS LEARN ABOUT JESUS

    As mentioned above, we had about 25 students

    that are not believers join us to learn more

    about Jesus. Pray for the other 19 students to

    see that Jesus is the only way, truth, and light.

    May the world seethat we are

    believers. May theyhear why.

    Visa Trip Back to the States

    Sophie Mei and Sherry Marc, Sophie Mei (3) and Sherry

    Sherry, Sophie and I traveled the world once again to renew our visas, catch up with

    friends and family and be encouraged. We are sorry that we were not able to meet with

    many of you but will aim to do so when we are on a longer stay. The majority of our

    time was spent with family in GA, NC and TN and our church family in McDonough,

    GA.

    Read This BookI just finished reading Counterfeit Gods by Timothy Keller a few weeks ago andwould highly recommend it to all believers. Keller uses his cultural

    understanding of many passages to show us how different people throughout the

    bible were enslaved to idols, set free by the gospel, and refocused on God. The

    much needed chapter on love is worth the price of the book. The final chapter

    reminded me that we are to be disciplined in the basics not out of mere duty, but

    because spiritual disciplines practiced in faith will help us to joyfully dig deeper

    into the glorious riches of our God, and in doing so usurp the counterfeit gods

    that seek to master and destroy us. As this continually happens we can truly love

    God and others.
