This Week : cartoon night

Thom and Carolyn are serving on the European Mobilization and Training Team .

PRAISE:

1. For God’s sustaining grace, in answer to your kind and faithful prayers. The pain in our hearts continues from the sud-den home-going of our dear son Tim’s, but is wonderfully bal-anced each day with the awesome comfort and strength of our loving Heavenly Father. His ways are indeed perfect.

2. For the opportunities to be involved in evangelistic outreach, one-to-one discipling, and in teaching foundational Bible stud-ies during the day each Tuesday and Thursday at Carrubbers.

PRAYER:

1. Please pray with us as we endeavor to reach out to, and min-ster to some of Tim’s many former contacts. Our youngest son was very committed and actively involved, through the minis-try of our church base, Carrubbers Christian Centre, in helping many friends and contacts, who were less fortunate, homeless or at risk.

2. Pray with us for open doors and for new churches and laborers to be raised up to pray more, send more laborers, and person-ally go to take the Glorious Gospel to those who have yet to hear.
