Look and see...

 

We have been praying for Pastor Adam and family as they will return

to Nauru ~ you guessed it ~ 29 days. The folk do not show a lot of

excitement but they always check to see how many days

it will be before the McGeorge's return to the island.

 

 

Look and see who our March Missionaries are ~

Independent Baptist Builders, John and Amy Foster.

During the month the church will be praying

for them and any needs they might have!!

 

"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,

whose mind is stayed on thee:

because he trusteth in thee."

Isaiah 26:3



Zach loves 'Teen Time', he is a faithful young man.

He rides the wagon every Sunday and helps people on and off the wagon.

 

Jameson the young man on the left took Leo Noddy bird hunting

Saturday night. They do it with long poles and nets.

You kill them by biting the heads and crushing the skull, NO Leo

did NOT do that but Jameson did.

Leo brought two of them home. Some of the feathers had been

removed, Leo removed the wings, head, and feet and they are ready to

eat. We have to figure out how to cook them and we will give it

a try.

 

 

This is B-Beak he is Washington's youngest son. He is patiently waiting

for the grownups to figure out how everyone will get home

after Sunday am service and we discovered a flat tire on the wagon.

Never fear everyone got home ~ thanks for your help Elizabeth.

 

 

 

 



Sunday, Feb. 17, 2013

Some of the Sunday morning, Feb. 17, 2013, children

that attended the service. They were a handful ~ ages ranging

from 3 to 12 and there were 21 of them ~ it was a challenge

keeping them focused. 

 

 

Taraetoa is faithful to attend both Sunday morning and

Sunday night!! Last night at song request time

she selected a song (for the first time) but

had Rhondo give us the number.

 

 

There are so many children on the island that need

the Lord. Like all children they love to run and play.

Did you notice they are all barefoot??

 

 

Last night after we took Taraetoa home we decided to

take a drive around the country. As we

approached Anibare Bay you could

see that even the Nauruns thought that it was

very hot yesterday. They were out in large numbers

cooling off in the ocean.

 

As we were headed home we once again were praising the LORD

for the opportunity to be in Nauru.

 

Please continue to pray for International Baptist Church and Pastor Adam McGeorge.

He and his family will be returning to the island soon and we will be

returning home to Saint Joseph, Missouri.

 

We are praying that the Lord will open doors for us to serve HIM where

a missionary is in need!!!

 

 

 

 



Pictures and bulletin board

Since our ministry is a 'temporary' fill in for the

pastor we always keep the pastor and

his family before the people.

Whether it be by notes they have sent or by pictures.

Here in Nauru we have posted some pictures on the bulletin board of
the McGeorge family.

Happy New Year

from Nauru.

 

A new year,a new day and a new beginning!!

 

Proverbs 3:5-6

"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;

and lean not unto thine own

understanding.

In all thy ways acknowledge him,

and he shall direct thy paths."

Provisions

even the God of our salvation. Selah."

We are so thankful for the Lord's daily provisions in our lives. Sometimes we think we may need this or that but HE always provides us with what we need.

The weather has taken a bit of a turn the last two weeks, after a bit of a dry spell we are having a lot of rain and a drop in the daily temperatures (in the mid 80's instead of the mid 90's).  We are again experiencing car problems and are not able to use the Land Cruiser at this time (waiting for a part to come from Australia) and so we used the Cub Cadet to go and run the 'Monday errands'.  We got caught in a rain storm and by the time we got to the store we were drenched. We figured we might as well do our shopping and hope that by the time we were done the rain would have stopped. Well, it did not stop but it did reduce to a sprinkle.  

Life on the island of Nauru can be a bit of a challenge but we are thankful for the privilege of being here and watching over the work of missionaries Adam and Christie McGeorge.  Please pray for them as they continue on their furlough and report to as many churches as is possible.
