A GOOD SHAKE UP! \t AUGUST 2013<\/p>\n
It\u2019s what happens when major changes are happening in everyone\u2019s lives in your family!
\nI think that is a good definition of a \u201cGood Shake Up\u201d.
\nGood, because the changes are all good changes are all good. But a \u201cShake Up\u201d because it is pretty major changes happening in all of our lives
\nat the same time! WOW. God is Good! <\/p>\n
His grace is sufficient and we are holding on for the ride\u201d! <\/p>\n
Amy and Hector spent 5 weeks here in Florida with us and 4 weeks in Oregon with supporting churches and friend there. When they return to Mexico Mid-August, they have about a month before Judah makes his voice heard! (He is due September 18. Please pray that we would be able to go and help out when Judah is born.) Their plans have been completely changed in the last 2 months and they are praying for direction for their next steps on HIS path. Please pray with them. They may be leaning toward Hector finishing his missionary training in Missouri next year. That would give them a year to adjust to their family situation, continue in their ministries in Mexico, and for Hector to get his green card. PRAY!
\nDebby and Brett and girls are looking for the Lord to
\nprovide for their support to go with another mission
\norganization to Costa Rica where Brett would be involved in teaching the Bible to National people. Big changes for them, as they need to sell their house in Palm Bay, and raise the funds needed to go. Their target is to go in 2013 or early 2014. PRAY, PRAY!
\nBeka and Cody Burns plan to \u201ctie the knot\u201d October 26, 2013. Beka moves to Part Time employment with Volusia County EVAC on August 1, and that will be a big change for her as well. PRAY! On the \u201cUp Side,\u201d Cody was hired at the Orlando\/Sanford Airport and is working in his field of training, and gaining experience. YAY!
\n David is finished with NTBI, and was home for a little over a month. He is presently in Michigan for a month or two, where he is being the caretaker for 2 rental properties in a place he knows and loves well! (We spent many a summer in Michigan at \u201cGrandma\u2019s house\u201d, which is now a vacation rental, so we can keep it in our family.)
\nTim is headed off to New Tribes Bible Institute in Waukesha,
\nWisconsin. He has looked forward to going to school here
\nfor many years. Pray for safety as we drive up and back with him, and
\nfor Tim to find a good job to provide for his needs. We look forward to all the Lord will teach him there.<\/p>\n
All of these family events are exciting for us. Leaves us with an empty nest by late Fall. (David may move in with some buddies instead of moving home, and Beka will leave in October). We are in the midst of a complete inventory management software change for our home business (bookstore). This means we are re-listing our 20,000+books we have for sale. This is a big job! We certainly appreciate your prayers!\tTHANK YOU!!!<\/p>\n
New Tribes Mission continues to reach out to the people with no chance of hearing the Gospel, unless someone takes the message. We enjoy assisting those on the front lines all around the world in support roles in the NTM family. Our jobs, like those of a government representative or resource person, are varied and meet needs for many folks. Letters of verification for missionaries sending their kids to college, and for folks coming home on Home Assignment and needing a verification of a US address, or applying for a driver\u2019s license from overseas. This is a very small slice of our days in the Member Services offices. <\/p>\n
Thank you for standing with us. For praying for us and encouraging us as we stay on task, and continue to seek the Lord as we serve Him each day. Thank you for your gift of friendship and prayer! We appreciate you!<\/p>\n
In His Grace, <\/p>\n
