Good Morning

Blessings to you from Wisconsin!
I have been in the states a little over 2 weeks now and have traveled over 1200 miles so far! I have enjoyed renewed friendships with old friends and new friendships made along the way!

I talk to Franklin James and Mary each day, they are in Costa Rica, the kids are in public school so they couldn't miss school. Franklin stayed with them and is setting posts for electricity, and wiring up the multi-purpose building to get ready to turn the lights on! They are planting grass and continue clearing brush, yesterday they started planting beans!
We are also involved in church 3 days per week so it keeps them busy!! Pray for us, we have never been apart this long! GOD has called us to build this camp center and we want to share that vision with you, hence my trip to visit with each of you!

Thank you to my Mother in law Claudette and Emmette for their hospitality and Bopey Lee my friend I will be staying with off and on in Owensboro Ky!

I am with Suzy Wasmuth right in Wisconsin, We will be sharing with a group here at her house tonight about the mission in Costa Rica. Then tomorrow September 25 we will be together with the team members who came to Costa Rica July2010! On Sunday Sept. 26 I will be sharing at Suzys church Plymouth Congregational church.

I will travel up to My sister Bernices in Shawano Wisc. Sunday Evening.

Monday Sept27 I will travel to Milton, Iowa to my brothers Devon and Delmars houses.

Wednesday Sept 29 I will be in Grant City MO with friends Dirk and Janelle Buffington, we met in Belize 7 years ago, so look forward to seeing you guys again!

Thursday morning Sept 30 I travel to Sedalia, MO to visit with a team who came to Costa Rica from there in March2010. I will be speaking in several churches and at Applewood Chirstian School, several of the youth from that school came to Costa Rica with Ron Jobe from that area!

GOD has been good!!! thank you all for praying for me on my trip through several states doing fundraising for the camp center we are in the process of building in Costa Rica. We are raising funds right now to build our house on the camp property. When we move into our cabin and out of the multi-purpose building we will convert it into a large conferece center to start hosting camps and seminars for the Costa Rican churches.

The camp will also provide a place for teams for the US and other countries to come minister in the Name of JESUS in Costa Rica! If you are interested in praying for us on a regular basis, coming to Costa Rica on a mission team, or give to our ministry you can give online at http://www.globaloutreach.org/ or you can call our home office at 1-662-842-4615 and get started on your adventure of a lifetime!

JESUS BLESS YOU! Franklin Evelyn Mary & James

Beautiful Costa Rica

These are scenes from here in our community! Gods beautiful creation!

 

Thank you for praying for us here in Costa Rica! This week we had a meeting with the people from the electric company! We are on the list to get electricity sometime between now and a year from now! Please pray with us that GOD will move hearts and we can have this blessing of electricity sooner than later! The engineers name is Victor, when you remember that name please speak to GOD on our behalf in prayer asking GOD to work in his heart to give us electricity and also that Victor would open his heart to accept JESUS as his Saviour!

 

 

 

JESUS BLESS YOU!

MOOOOOvin dirt!

 

This shot was taken from inside the multi-purpose building, James and Mary were studying! Franklin is in the background moving dirt to get our house lot ready! We are thankful for our roof, when it rains it really pours! Pray for GODS blessings to pour on this camp center! Thank you for praying and giving to make this mission possible!

 

In this picture Franklin is moving more rocks, he has had to roll a lot of these out of the way, would you like some rocks? We'd love to send some your way!


JESUS BLESS YOU!
Franklin Evelyn Mary & James

Where do you stand?

Where do you stand with JESUS? If you are unsure of your standing with GOD or what would happen if HE called you home today? You can be absolutely sure today that you will go to Heaven!
Trust JESUS now, pray, LORD JESUS, at this very moment I have recognised that I am a sinner. I know that you love me and gave your life for me at the cross! I ask you JESUS to forgive my sins and come into my heart! I believe that by faith you have saved me from my sins, no matter what i have done, you love me and I thank you for your love and forgivness! I ask you JESUS for your direction in my life help me to live for You!
If you have prayed this prayer for the very first time for real, please call a local pastor or church to help you in the next steps to living a life of abundance in JESUS CHRIST! Get a bible and start to read it, start in the gospel of John, or wherever GOD leads you, the Bible is Gods Love letter to you and me!
Please let me know how I can pray for you at turnerefmj@gmail.com

 

JESUS BLESS YOU!

Feliz Dia PAPA!

Happy Fathers day all dads at Arbol de Vida Church!


James makes a great fotographer! Think he may have a future taking pictures???

Mary and group of youth friends sang Mighty men of Valor, in spanish of course!
She and her friends ate lunch at our house after morning church service then decorated for the mens Fathers day Party!

Pastor Olger was all smiles the deacons of the church gave him a gift, and many of the community whom we normally don't see at church were there so he was able to share JESUS with them! Praise GOD from whom all blessings flow!

JESUS Team!

Glasses anyone?

Isaac was able to help translate Spanish to English for our optometry team this week.
We have a team of 16 doctors and students from University of Alabama at Birmingham School of Optometry with us for one week! They are part of the Fellowship of Christian Optometrists at the University. We are thankful they chose to come to Costa Rica to serve alongside us at the
Taller del Maestro Global Outreach!
Many people have recieved glasses who would otherwise not have been able to afford them thanks Audrey Richards and all your team for your gift of help for vision for Costa Rica!
JESUS still heals if we have faith in HIM and we know HE will use your hands to minister to those in need!

Then JESUS said to him,"recieve your sight; your faith has made you well!" Luke18:42

James in Sunday School we are thankful for our Sunday School teachers. We have been working in our Sunday School now for a year and a half, and we have seen growth both spiritually in our teachers, and in numbers in our children attending Sunday School. Praise GOD for this opportunity to teach children the Bible!
