July 2015

Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ

 

Remember:

The nature of Christ

The sacrifice of Christ

Authority of Christ

Calling of Christ in our lives

Praises and prayer requests:

ATV, Pic below. Praise the Lord, still need $6500.  It will save much wear on the truck and get to places we cannot get to in the truck.  Also pray we can find 8 inch tires for the front in Port au Prince so we don't have to have them shipped in.

VBS workshop went great, they were so thankful for the information.  VBS' have started.  Will report when they are all finished in August.

Evangelism workshop July 13-16. 

Leadership workshop in August 10-13.

Pastor Greg Bunn returning August 24 thru Sept 5th.

Market is going well, each Tuesday and Thursday, the pastors are seeing people come to Christ and other recommitting their lives to Him through their witnessing each week.  AMEN!!!!!

Another discipleship class here, possibly on Wednesday's.

2 new pastor groups have started both about 3 hours away.  The unity is spreading to other areas.  God is definitely at work.  How is He leading you to help??

 

Some of you have mentioned to us you don't feel called to come disciple, come and build houses for those without.

 

Testimony from 2 pastors in the group: "We believe God sent you both here to help us because we have not had any possibility for training and equipping".  One pastor recently asked for more teaching for them and their leaders.  They are hungry for the word of God, will you come and help feed them spiritually????? 

 

Friday pastors group continues with an average of 24 and the unity is building.  Right now they are studying Christ is All You Need from Colossians.  When that is finished Terry plans to go through the "Experiencing God " series.

 

Had a great Monday afternoon recently with the wives. 10 attended and we talked about seeking God first in all things and having the faith and belief that God will do what He says He will do. Had some answered prayers/PTL!!! One lady shared their mule (it is their livelihood for example it carries things for them to market etc) was dying, the vet came and said he would be dead by morning. They prayed all night and the next morning he was up and eating. Another shared her sister was on her death bed, the doctor said they could not do anything for her, they prayed all day and night.  In a couple days she was up and eating and back home. God is good all the time and all the time God is good and still does miracles.

 

God is at work here in NW Haiti. Will you join HIM through prayers, giving and/or coming here short term or long term?

 

Henry Blackaby wrote a textbook and also a devotion book to study entitled "Experiencing God"  The seven realities of God he discusses are:

1. God is always at work around you

2.  God pursues a continuing love relationship with you that is real and personal.

3.  God invites you to become involved with Him in His work.

4.  God speaks by the Holy Spirit through the Bible, prayer, circumstances, and the church to reveal Himself, His purposes and His ways.

5.  God's invitation for you to work with Him always leads you to a crisis of belief that requires faith and action.

6.  You must make major adjustments in your life to join God in what He is doing.

7.  You come to know God by experience as you obey Him and He accomplishes His work through you.

**You cannot go with God and stay where you are in the way you live or the way you think.

God is love.  If you come to know Him as He reveals Himself to you, you will love Him.  If you love Him, you will believe and trust Him.  If you believe and trust Him you will obey Him.
