Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Greetings in the name of the Lord.  Hoping this letter finds all well. We are doing fine except for the getting older part. God is wonderful as usual. Thanks so much for your support and especially for your prayers.

The 20th year celebration in the "bush" went great. We had just over 1,700 kids from our churches with several hundred more coming as visitors. There were 192 who got saved and 98 who re-dedicated their lives to the Lord. The messages were powerful and right on as the kids and teachers sat for days learning more from God's Word. After four days of VBS, the adults came and we had over 8,000 from our 110 churches in attendance. Of course not every member came and over half could not come because of distance and money problems. God came down and met with us. The Nationals and the team from the USA led by Pastor George Grace, preached and preached and preached and taught and taught and taught. Hundreds and hundreds came for re-commitment and to give their lives in taking the Word throughout Africa. Fifteen deaf were saved along with many more hearing who gave their lives to Jesus. We had 95 baptized down at the river, and of course had our group of watchers to make sure there were no crocs around, amen. We had a group of 35 visitors from the USA, with a team of doctors and dentist led by Dr. Jim Elias. They all performed well and ministered to all the people tirelessly. We had several of the doctors re-dedicate their lives to the Lord and even had one of them saved.  Wow, came all the way to Africa to find Jesus, is that great or what. All in all it was a wonderful celebration in Zambia. Many thanks go out to all who had a part in helping feed all the children who came.

We are back in the USA now traveling from church to church. Please continue to pray for the work there and for our needs. We have a 40ft. container sitting fully packed with thousands of Bibles, SS material, pastor’s bicycles, but we do not have the money to ship. Please pray and help if you can. Also, pray for the works in Congo, Tanzania, Malawi, Botswana, Angola, Mozambique, Zambia, and of course the new ones just beyond the next river. God bless you and thank you for your support.
