Update on Missionary Marc Schreckhise!

This message came just a few minutes ago:

"Thank you for all your prayers. Yesterday they exrayed me and found the stone in the tube going from my kidneys to the bladder. This morning it was gone! I did not eject it out so it must have been the Lord who healed me! Even the doctor said it was God."

Thank God for answered prayers, and a miracle!!

Prayer - Missionary Marc Schreckhise

Please pray for Missionary Marc Schreckhise, in Honduras.

He is in great pain and suffering due to a kidney stone. They have hospitalized him and, unless God intervenes, they plan surgery tomorrow.

God is able – thanks in advance for praying!

Cuba!

The team traveled to Havana without this missionary this year. I would have loved to go; however, circumstances made it not advisable at this time.

The latest report is that 81 people were filled with the Baptism of the Holy Ghost!! Thank God for what He is doing there.

PLEASE PRAY for Cuba! The need is greater than can be expressed via this medium.

New Song by Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir

"The harvest is ripe, the fields are empty

Jesus said, "Who will go?"

Can't you see the workers are few?

Could the Lord be calling you?

Who will go...who will go?

People everywhere; they need Jesus

People everywhere; they need Jesus

Jesus...

Can't you see the workers are few?

Could the Lord be calling you?

Who will go...who will go?"

Who will go…?

One Passion

“I have but one passion: It is He, it is He alone. The world is the field and the field is the world; and henceforth that country shall be my home where I can be most used in winning souls for Christ.”—Count Nicolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf

Quote

“Send me anywhere, only go with me. Lay any burden on me, only sustain me. Sever any tie, but the ties that bind me to your service and to your heart.”—David Livingstone

You almost weren't born...the cord was too short. After 39 hours of labor, the knife made the way, and we heard your voice for the first time.

They Went Bellowing

There's something disturbing about a bellowing cow. While the mooing of cattle is a peaceful sound associated with the quietness of country life, a bawling cow is unsettling. Something isn't right when a cow bellows.

Missionaries

"If God calls you to be a missionary, don't stoop to be a king." ––Wesley Deuwell

There can be no greater privilege in this world than to share the only saving message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ with someone who might otherwise never know.

We must face it: the Message of the Gospel, as found in Acts 2:37-39, is the only message that offers hope to a sin-enslaved world. Nothing else will take away sin! Nothing else will give hope beyond this life.

If that be so – and it is – then ours is not just an honor: it is a duty. We must tell them.

"But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost" ––2 Corinthians 4:3

It is my privilege to serve God in the country of Peru and beyond. This blog will share some of what we're blessed to be a part of, as well as plans and projects for the future. God is doing some exciting things!

It is this missionary's earnest desire that this life be consumed with one purpose, expressed in the title of this blog:

"That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations." ––Psalm 67:2

As Jim Elliott wrote, "God, I pray Thee, light these idle sticks of my life and may I burn for Thee. Consume my life, my God, for it is Thine. I seek not a long life, but a full one, like You, Lord Jesus." That is truly my desire.

There is a place for you, too. If you have obeyed His gospel, You are a part of His plan.

Are you willing to be used of Him? Consumed for Him?

Come along, then. Perhaps you'll hear Him directing you as we journey together.
