Dear Friends,
We have completed the missions course that we were taking in Durham, Canada. During our time there, we learned much from God’s Word, we learned what is involved in cross-cultural teaching of God’s Word and church planting. In working side-by-side we saw that the area of working together is vital to God’s work; because God’s work is a teamwork,
“For the body is not one member, but many,” 1 Cor, 12:14
Well, we have moved again! We will spend this last year of training in Missouri on the Lake of the Ozarks. Some of the topics to be covered in the language course are:
- phonetics, linguistics, culture, and literacy
- dealing with culture shock, stress
- missionary health & hygiene (medical) -bible translation
- tribal language & culture acquisition
- preparing to go overseas
- and much more!
This was a very special Christmas for us. We enjoyed 10 days each with both our families, and they were thrilled to see Esther. We are very thankful for our families.
Please pray for us, and feel free to let us know how we can be praying for you.
Your teammates,
David and Shari Ogg
