Master and Teacher

We wanted to share this link with all of you! - www.rbc.org/utmost/index.php - The point in this study on September 22nd was whether or not we allow God to be the Master over our lives. My Utmost For His Highest website (John 13:13,16) "To have a master and teacher is not the same thing as being mastered and taught. Having a master and teacher means that there is someone who knows me better than I know myself, who is closer than a friend, and who understands the remotest depths of my heart and is able to satisfy them fully. It means having someone who has made me secure in the knowledge that he has met and solved all the doubts, uncertainties, and problems in my mind. To have a master and teacher is this and nothing less— '. . . for One is your Teacher, the Christ . . .' ( Matthew 23:8 )." We had a very busy, but a great weekend!! We took the Hispanic Children in Action on an imaginary mission trip to Moldova. They had their boarding pass in hand, assigned seating as on an airplane, sound effects of jet engines, announcements pre-recorded of the pilot and flight attendant's announcements, etc. Myra baked a Moldovan Easter Sweet Bread, and they all seemed to enjoy it. We drove to Kite, GA to visit with Larry and Dianne Martin on Saturday, and they gave us some valuable insight on church planting efforts in Moldova. On Sunday, we spoke at our home church, Hampton First Baptist Church asking them to be one of our prayer partnering churches while we are in Moldova. On Sunday evening we shared with the members of Lovejoy First Baptist Church, who will also be one of our prayer partnering churches. We know that Satan tries to edge his way in when anyone is trying to do the Will of God, but through the power of prayer Jesus showed us by example, that all things are possible with God!! We love you and pray God's blessings in your life!! Smile, God loves you!

Memories from Moldova in 2006 & 2007

God blessed us through the people in Cojusna at Emanuel Pentacostal Church. When we were asked by our OM leaders if we would be willling to help this church every weekend, we had no idea how much we would be blessed by them. God continues to work in their lives as they make Him known in Moldova!! To our dear friends ... Multumim frumose pentru bunatate vostru! Smile, God loves you!

Learning and Praying

We are praying for five Southern Baptist Churches to become our prayer partners while we are in Moldova. There is still a need for a Strategy Coordinator in Moldova, and we ask that you pray and spread the word to anyone that you know who has a degree in theology, through the Baptist seminary, that they would obey God's call in missions. We have been prayed for and supported by many people from many churches and denominations, and we have met so many dear friends through the mission field. God blesses us in so many ways that we overlook from time to time, but the small details and miracles in life are so important to see!! God continues to teach us about obedience, and through good and bad He strengthens us and molds us so that people can see more of Him and less of us. Pray for us as we try to get all of our paper work done in time for the orientation in October. We do not have training in church planting, and we feel weak in this area. Pray that God will make us strong ... 2 Corinthians 12:9 (Jesus' words) "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." We pray that His power will show strong and perfect in our weakness. Smile, God loves you!
