April News From Les and Debbie
Wow! So many miles and so many blessings!! Since January we have made trips to Minnesota, New England, Canada, Nebraska, Texas, Oklahoma, and Missouri. These trips were used to visit those who are partners with us in our missionary work through prayer and financial support and family members (who are also an important part of our partnership team!) Each visit gave us the chance to deepen friendships and encourage our fellow Believers as we told of God’s faithfulness. We praised God together for all He has done in our lives and theirs!
What are some things we are excited about????
Since purchasing our ’89 Buick in July we have traveled over 31,000 miles. We have been blessed to have the car run well. So many of the trips included travel in the snow, that we were accused of bringing snow with us where ever we went. It even snowed the day before Easter in Texas.
Our daughter Kandi and Joe Depue announced their engagement on March 3. They are both graduating from New Tribes Bible Institute in May and are planning September wedding. (See our website for details)
Our tickets to return to Brazil are purchased from Miami for June 23. We are still working on our travel to Miami and of course our return trip for Joe and Kandi’s wedding. We would appreciate your prayers concerning these plans.
What things are yet to come????
We are participating in World Christian Week at Calvary Bible Church in Neenah, WI this weekend through the following week. This is our home church. We pray that we will be used of God to be informative and challenging as we share the things God puts on our hearts.
Packing, planning, and spending time with our family and friends will keep us very busy until we go to Missouri for our New Tribes Mission Refresher Course June 13- 19. Pray that this will be a time of blessing and renewal for us and all who participate!
Les and I are so thankful for each one of you who have a part in our lives through your friendship, prayer and financial support. Thank you! More detailed information about us can be seen at our website. www.ntm.org/les_bowden
