Dear Friends,
I'm a blessed man! I have Jesus...and also, I have friends like you! Every once in a while, some of you truly "shine" and knock my socks of! This is Jesus revealing himself ot me, as if to say, "I love you son, just keep going... I'm here with you... I've never left...and I've never left your 'friends' either!"
it reminds me of that odl gospel song, "What a Friend we have in Jesus!"
I just want ot say, "Thank you" to all of you that continue ot support this work among the Apache people. Youd' be surprised at what an integral part your faithful giving and praying plays in keeping this Christian mission moving in a positive way...preaching the Word, the "good news" of Jesus and the Kingdom of God!
We recently drove to the town of Holbrook, Arizona to meet with Wings of Faith for a delivery of food and drink and even a "washing machine" (thanks brother Jim!) Mine was slowly dying, It needed a replacement! Now it's already installed! An Apache felow, Maverick, helped me take my old one out, Carmichael brought this newer one in with the aid of a dolly and me. While helping Maverick, we were lifting it into his truck and I pulled some muscles in my back...ouch!
I should have been more careful! So, l've been using ice packs and even an electrical device called "tens" on my back. It seems ot be working. This and prayer! Id' appreciate your prayers for this and my knees, legs and hands! Thank you so much! My buddy Art called and prayed for me as wel and immediately, I felt much better! I gave the old machine to an Apache felow here in Cibecue. It still has a few washes left!
Your giving enabled us ot purchase an evaporative cooler for the mission house, and one for the mission sanctuary, although that has 4 fans, which does agood job. The heat here in AZ gets prety stifling and this new cooler is fairly inexpensive. Praise God!
I hope that you are enjoying the Summertime and also your July 4". My son, Seth, invited me over (in Showlow) for a BBQ along with sitting up on top of his roof ot see the fireworks! My grandkids were also there as wel. God Bless America!
We're still hoping ot repair the mission sanctuary regarding the roof leaks and damaged ceiling. Donations for this project would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration.
We're also hoping to make a repair on the Tahoe that was donated. The air conditioning needs servicing.
In Christ
