When times of discouragment come, and no doubt they have. We also need to focus on the joy and thankfulness of our heavenly Father.
We rejoice because:
There have been some new converts baptized here.
Some of our staff members that were gone for a time of refreshing have arrived here safely.
Our family got to get away for a couple days for some time to relax.
He never forsakes us!
We appreciate all of you prayer warriors and never think for a moment that your prayers are not being answered, because they are. Their is a real battlefield here, and we could never do it without the power of the Holy Spirit.
Here is a link to some of our most recent pictures:

"Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise; be thankful unto him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations." Psalm 100
