JUNE 2005 - Prayer Letter

These first few months of my 2nd furlough have been filled with spending time with family and friends. I am so happy to have the opportunity of renewing old friendships and meeting many new wonderful people. Everyone has been so welcoming and generous.

Within the past few months I have been blessed beyond measure as I have visited with many of you. Time with my sister and her family in Leander, Texas was precious as I was there during the birth of her 2nd child, Braden. Then I was overwhelmed at the kindness of God's people at Mid Way in Raleigh, North Carolina. My mother travelled with me to Big Sandy, TN where the people of Beacon Baptist graciously welcomed us. Then we had a great time visiting with my Aunt Nancy in Wisconsin. I had a heart opening experience as I spent several days in Kyushu, Japan speaking at ladies meetings and working in children’s ministry with BBFI missionaries Ken Board and Mike & Becky Winters. And I thoroughly enjoyed myself at Vacation Bible Schools in Osborne, Kansas and Leasburg, Missouri. Yet I must admit, nothing is better than being with my family at my home church, Park Crest Baptist, in Springfield

1 am thankful to those of you who have already decided to help with the purchase of a 4 wheel drive vehicle for ministry in Tanzania. Several children's groups as well as others have taken this on as a special project. I am thankful for your prayers as I look forward to the rest of the funds being provided.

May I also ask that you pray for our Tanzanian national leaders and churches? I have received reports that they are struggling at this time and are in need of encouragement.

I so appreciate your prayers love and friendship –Thank You so much for deciding to make me a part of your missions team.
