Not Easily Broken....

And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken. (Ecc 4:12)

    As I was praying and thinking about all that lay before us in the coming weeks, the Lord brought to my memory Ecc. 4 and it has given me much encouragement. I hope it will to you as well.

This month has been one of great accomplishments in taking the Gospel of the kingdom of God to those who are perishing:
  • Peter wrote today to report on the progress of the church plants in Rwanda. There were many people reached while they were there the past 13 days. This Past Sunday there were 46 in attendance at NDCM New Day Christian Ministry  Bombei  and a second church was also established in the village Gai with 17 members. Peter and Joseph left today to head back to their families in Kisii, Kenya having accomplished much for the Lord while in Rwanda. 
  • Last week here in PR we met with Pastor Jesus Ortiz in Hormigueros and have received full support in the use of their building, a sign, and an offer to go out with me to invite others to join us. 
  • In just 14 days we are headed to Kenya for two leader training conferences and two Vacation Bible Schools, Lord willing.

     The opportunities are truly amazing, while the financial difficulties are also significant. The cost for the church start was higher than expected and although they have tickets for the two day journey home they each need about $30 for food and lodging on their way home. (we have received $25 already, we lack $35) When our second Puerto Rican branch starts in March we will be driving over 120 miles each week and gas is a significant concern. The trip to Kenya still lacks $2,370 in support that is needed for the journey and we have only 8 days left until we need to leave.

As I was reminding the Lord of these needs He reminded me of His word, “a threefold cord is not quickly broken”

Truly a little can go a far way in the kingdom of God. Working together we could do far more than we could ever accomplish on our own. If everyone who visited our web page, received our newsletters, and weekly updates gave just $5.00 a month each we would have enough support for all the work we have been given to do and would be lacking in nothing. We would truly be free to focus all our efforts on ministry.

Would you be willing to join us in combining together to make a stronger more secure cord to pull out those who are struggling to get out of the mire and muck of this world? I pray you will!
