Full House

So nice to have over 45 people in attendance at our main worship service this past Sunday night.  Many visitors came to accompany students receiving diplomas for Source of Light Bible studies.


Byron goes by bike to make all his visits.  He makes rounds going to each house at least once every two weeks to get finished lessons, help with answers and deliver new ones.  Few of his Source of Life students ever come to church.  It was especially rewarding to see such a good number turn out for this diploma awards ceremony. 

Keep on biking, Byron!  God knows and will give the increase in His time!

My Promise Verse

Job 23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take:  when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold. This verse has been a favorite of mine since I was a teenager. When I was a high school senior at a Christian school in Virginia, Job 23:10 was chosen as our class theme verse. At our graduation commencement, the valedictorian and saludatorian in their addresses that day divided the verse in its two natural parts as a basis for the core of each one's address. I was the salutatorian of my senior class that year.  I chose to speak of how God would one day reward our faithfulness and thus, we should always strive to remain true.

As a missionary especially when times were lonely or difficult, I assumed it was my "trial" or "test," and as such must be accepted in all humility. As I have grown older, I have begun to look more toward the pearly gates and have reconsidered the thr...

Old Film, Same Message

A missionary colleague recently uploaded some old films made about the work in Brazil by Baptist Mid-Missions many years ago in the 1950's. Yesterday I was able to watch the first of the series.  All I can say is "Wow!  Things haven't changed much in Brazil.  And things haven't changed too much with the work of missions in Brazil either!" There are still donkey carts in the street.  They have better wheels nowadays! There are still people who live in grass huts and high apartment buildings, too. Bicycles are still many people's only means of transportation, if they are that lucky! Many roads in the interior towns are still paved with cobblestones, if they are paved at all. And yes, chickens are everywhere, even in big cities. Brazil still needs missionaries! That's right, Brazil is not evangelized and in no need of foreign missionaries today.  It still needs workers to spread the Good News of the Gospel and the Risen Saviour!  Sadly that part of t...

Motorcycle Adventure

  This past month, Byron and I traveled by motorcycle to meet up with one of our boys and his wife arriving from the USA.  Several times along the route we weren't sure if we would make it.  Somehow God protected us inspite of ourselves. Watch the video made with my grandchildren in mind to see and hear the whole story.
