Warm Summer Greetings!<\/strong><\/p>\n

How nice to visit with you again!\u00a0 We have had quite an exciting month!\u00a0 I remember my youth director telling us, \u201cDon\u2019t be bored-serve the Lord!\u201d\u00a0 Was he ever right!<\/p>\n

We had a great visit with all the Grandchildren and their parents in June and July.\u00a0 Amy and Hector and boys are still with us until the end of this week.\u00a0 It has been a joy to have them here.\u00a0 They leave on Friday to go to Virginia to share in a church there, before heading back to Missouri.\u00a0 School will start for them quickly.\u00a0 This semester Amy will have 9-2 year olds in her preschool class.\u00a0 Please pray she starts feeling better soon, as that will be a huge challenge with morning sickness!\u00a0 Pray also for Hector as he continues in the training with progressively more complex subject matter, in his second language.<\/p>\n

Brett and Debby rejoice that they received their Resident Visas for Nicaragua.\u00a0 This enables them to avoid going out of the country every few months to renew their tourist visas.\u00a0 All are healthy at this time.\u00a0 We are very thankful!\u00a0 They just added a new kitten to their family!<\/p>\n

Beka called with a report of an eye condition she has developed.\u00a0 Please pray for them to have wisdom in treatment, and she will know the best route to take on that.\u00a0 She may need lasik surgery, and may need to stop wearing contacts.\u00a0 Cody is doing well in his flight training.<\/p>\n

David and Joice need to find a new place to rent this month.\u00a0 We were kind of amazed at how expensive it is to rent in our area.\u00a0 Please pray they find a great little spot to call \u201chome\u201d.\u00a0 Joice is enjoying her new job at the dentist office. J<\/p>\n

Tim and Charity are doing well in their home town of Ocala.\u00a0 Pray that they would make some good friends, and put down some roots in a good church there.<\/p>\n

We are excited to report on the following to you!\u00a0 This year to date, we have had 25 new missionaries from Ethnos360 finish their Partnership Development and head out to their fields of service.\u00a0 There are 4 more ready to go during August and September!\u00a0 What a blessing!\u00a0 Please pray that the Lord would raise up more laborers to GO into His harvest!<\/p>\n

We received a new update from the West Africa field this week.\u00a0 They have some ongoing needs for personnel there that we can pray for as well.\u00a0 Six people groups<\/u> that are moving toward the completion of the New Testament Church Plant need another couple in the location<\/u>.\u00a0 There are 7 new \u00a0areas with needs of 2 couples or singles in each location<\/u>.\u00a0 Six of these are new allocations, and one is a temporary assignment to learn the realities for the potential role of our organization in that area.\u00a0 Three or more other couples are needed <\/u>in other areas of People Group Assessment on this field.\u00a0 The Harvest is great! (Matthew 9:37,38)<\/strong><\/p>\n

THANK YOU so much for the continuing role and interest you have in our lives and ministries with Ethnos360.\u00a0 Our goals and vision remain to reach out to those without hope.\u00a0 We celebrate the 75 year anniversary this year, of our mission.\u00a0 We are thankful for the ways God has led, and the ways He still leads!\u00a0 TO GOD BE THE GLORY!<\/p>\n

With our Thanks!
