We're so excited about what the new year has in store! The local churches have kicked off their club year, and it's been great to see more churches beginning to use the Word of Life materials.
There are three "new" (to us) churches. Just last Saturday we did an orientation with Honeyridge Baptist Church. They are starting the Olympian (children's) program. We were thrilled to see that they had 13 leaders in attendance, and 4 more that will be working with them, as well. What an awesome opportunity for discipleship!
Please pray with us as we have been having some problems with printing our materials. There have been several delays that we have no control over, and we're hoping to get the materials to the churches as soon as possible. Please pray that they will be available this Friday for delivery.
Due to the visa that the Page family is here on they could only be in the country for 90 days at a time. They left today for a short trip to Swaziland to scope out the country for a possible S.M.A.S.H. (Students Ministering And Serving Him) camp later this year. This is a short term missions trip that we provide for South African teens, and we are excited about the possibility of taking them out of the country this year.
Thanks for your prayers and support! We're excited to be online again so we can keep in touch better.
