June/July Prayer Letter


Praise the Lord for His mercies endure forever! God is so good and has been so good to me. The past 6 months have caused me as never before to trust in Him as Jehovah-jireh, the God Who provides. Not only does He provide financial and material needs, but also encouragement and friends just when I need them.

 Macedonia's Orientation

I had the joy of attending Macedonia’s Orientation just a few weeks ago. As with anything new, I was not sure what it was going to be like. What an amazing week! I was able to meet and talk to many veteran missionaries on furlough and new missionaries just starting deputation. With classes in the morning and afternoon, preaching in the evening, and fellowship time between, it was a busy week. I learned so much and was challenged in many different ways. The entire week had such a sweet spirit to it. God provided much needed encouragement through this orientation.  I am so thankful to serve with Macedonia World Baptist Missions.

 Praise

Earlier in the spring, when looking over my summer schedule, I did not have many meetings scheduled for July and August. The Lord has more than tripled that number! The upcoming months have more scheduled meetings per month than I have had thus far. I am grateful for these opportunities to share my testimony and the work in North Africa.
