Standing In The Gap in the Czech Republic!

Once again the Lord has opened the door for

us to stand in for

Bro. Jon and Emilie Rettig in Prague, Czech Republic.

The plan is to be with them late December 2013 until

late March or early April 2014.  

When we leave the Czech Republic we are praying for an

open door to be able to preach for a church in 

Holland ~ please pray about that for us.

Valley Avenue Baptist Church ~ Pastor Ben Moore

Sunday, August 4th we were with Pastor Ben Moore and

Valley Avenue Baptist Church in Falls City, Nebraska.

We gave a report of our time in Nauru and preached

the afternoon service.

 We really enjoyed our time with this great church.

Sharing with Valley Avenue BC what the Lord

did while we spent 11 months on the island

of Nauru for missionaries

Adam and Christie McGeorge.

 

A church with babies and teens is a growing church!!!

Thank you to Pastor Raymond Smith of Plains Baptist Church

in Lincoln, Nebraska and Pastor Tim Ruegg of Calvary 

Baptist Church in Seward Nebraska. Our time on Sunday, 

August 11 was a great time. When we visit your

churches it is like 'coming home'.

new and fresh look

of our prayer cards.

You are a real blessing to us!!



Travels ... Home Again

We have returned home after nearly 2 months on the road, it is great to sleep in our own bed. We traveled accident free and no breakdowns with the van, what a blessing. Tonight for the first time in two months we will be in our home church of Bible Baptist Temple in St. Joseph, Missouri.

We traveled 5,221 miles and  it took us to Mississippi, Tennessee, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Indiana, and Illinois. We saw family, friends, pastors and supporting churches.  In August we will be in Nebraska, Tennessee, and Texas.

We are praying for an open door to minister to a missionary and their family and church. We have definite plans to return to the Czech Republic in May 2014 but are asking the Lord for an open door in the meantime. If you know of a missionary that needs to return home for furlough and needs someone to 'stand in the gap' please contact us or our church/pastor.

 

~ HOME ~

 

Our 'family family' and some of

our church

family were there

to greet us upon our

arrival from Nauru.

 

What a surprise AND blessing.

Thank you Bible Baptist Temple for

being so supportive of

'Standing In The Gap'!!!!

We love you.

 

Time Marches On ~

Yes ~ time is marching on and it seems it marching faster and faster.

 

 

Today we pulled our suitcases out of the closet to make

room for the McGeorge's suitcases when they return on Monday.

It is hard to believe that our time in Nauru will be up in just a short time

and we will be home in Saint Joseph, Missouri.

 

We have been so blessed while being here in Nauru and we are

praising the Lord for the opportunity to serve HIM here.

 

We are looking forward to what God has in store for us next.

 

We covet your prayers not only for us but also for the McGeorge's

as they transition back to island life.
