It is hot<\/span> in Florida!!\u00a0 It is hard to believe that the 4th of July is almost here already.\u00a0 Hope you all enjoy the weekend.\u00a0 We will probably sit behind the mission on Lake Monroe and have a front seat to watching the Sanford fireworks for the 4th celebration.<\/p>\n

Heather<\/span> is back from her Colorado trip for ROTC at the University of Central Florida.\u00a0 She didn’t get to complete her five free falls but did get to make three of them.\u00a0 I guess she had a hard time controlling the flips that her body wanted to do.\u00a0 She seemed to have really enjoyed it and is already talking about talking more lessons some day when she is rich!\u00a0 She has already taken another short trip to Chicago to visit with friends from Bolivia so she has been a busy traveler but is settling back into her college courses now.<\/p>\n

While Heather was in Colorado Jason, Tiffany and Jaxon<\/span> were able to drive up from Grand Junction to see her.\u00a0 Phil’s cousin, Dave ,and wife Lindy were gracious enough to host them all for the weekend.\u00a0 \"Heather<\/a>I am jealous because Heather got to see my grandson, Jaxon, and even play with him and I didn’t!! \"Heather<\/a><\/p>\n

Cody<\/span> has been working at the mission for the summer \"Cody<\/a> and has been helping to re-roof one of the mission buildings.\u00a0 He has also been house-sitting for some friends so he keeps busy.<\/p>\n

Haley<\/span> had a good trip with World Changers<\/span> to South Carolina where they remodeled homes to help needy families.\u00a0 She is enjoying taking it easy while school is out.<\/p>\n

Our mission school is out for the summer but<\/span> I (Jackie)<\/span> continue to work part-time in the Field Ministry office.\u00a0 I was busy last week helping with Vacation Bible School <\/span>in our church.\u00a0 We had 75 or more kids and a very exciting week.\u00a0 I helped teach the Bible lesson each day for first through sixth grade.\u00a0 Even had Phil show Cody’s 3 foot ball python and<\/p>\n

\"Beakers

my African Grey, Beakers, entertained the kids – both teaching spiritual lessons that the kids probably won’t forget.\u00a0 It was exciting to hear that there were 14 kids who trusted the Lord that week!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/dl>\n

Phil <\/span>has been helping put the roof on the mission building, also, and building furniture for the mission book store and other furniture.<\/p>\n

Some exciting mission news from around the world:<\/span><\/p>\n

SENEGAL<\/span><\/strong>: <\/span>Badyaranke tribe<\/span>: Ten Badyarankes were recently honored for learning to read their own language. Others have expressed interest in taking the literacy course. Please pray that the ability to read will enable them to gain more understanding of God’s Word. Find out more online —\u00a0here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Bolivia:<\/span><\/strong> Radio Station:<\/span> One of our missionaries, Bruce Johnson is in Bolivia once again.\u00a0 One of the reasons for his trip was to get the repaired transmitter back out to the radio station and get it hooked up.\u00a0 They had only been able to use the small transmitter and so they weren’t able to reach out very far. Many people were coming in and wondering why they couldn’t hear the radio any more. So, we are happy to report that is up and running again. Bruce has also been busy recording in two languages and working on radio programs.\u00a0 Please pray these programs will reach many of the Chimane, Yura and Simba tribes<\/span> (read the newest on the Simba translation here<\/a>) who need Christ or who want to grow in the Lord. (If you are interested in learning more about the radio ministry click here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Thank you<\/span> all again for your prayers for our family and ministry with New Tribes as we seek to help reach the tribes for Christ.<\/p>\n

Till the Last Tribes is Reached,<\/p>\n
