GREETINGS TO EACH OF YOU WHO FOLLOW US ON THE BLOG!
IT HAS BEEN AN INTERESTING FEW DAYS TO SAY THE LEAST! MARY & I WERE ABLE TO SPEND THE DAY AT GLOBAL OUTREACH OUR HOME OFFICE, LAST THURSDAY! WHAT A BLESSING, MEETING THE NEW STAFF WHO HAVE COME ON AND SEEING THOSE WE LOVE STILL THERE, A FEW WHO HAVE MOVED ON! WE ENJOYED WORKING TOGETHER PUTTING THE ROOM TOGETHER WHERE THE NEW MISSIONARIES ARE MEETING THIS WEEK.
AT GLOBAL WE HAVE SEVERAL TRAINING'S THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, FOR NEW MISSIONARIES COMING WITH US, JOINING OUR FAMILY AND PREACHING THE GOOD NEWS OF JESUS CHRIST AROUND THE WORLD! SO THEY ARE IN MISSIONARY ORIENTATION TRAINING THIS WEEK REMEMBER THEM AS THEY START THIS MISSION JOURNEY, AND THOSE WHO TRAIN THAT GOD WOULD GIVE THEM WISDOM AND DISCERNMENT! THERE ARE 11 NEW MISSIONARIES, 8 SEASONED TRAINERS HELPING, GIVING GREAT ADVICE AS THESE YOUNG ONES START OUT!

IT WAS A BLESSING TO HAVE A SHORT VISIT THERE AT GLOBAL, AND GARY IS BRINGING A TEAM IN JUNE TO WORK IN COSTA RICA! WOW! WE DIDN'T PLAN THIS MEETING, BUT GOD DID!
