What’s the scope?
\nWe had a great visit with the Lieb family from Haiti last month, as they were
\ntraveling through the area on their “home assignment”. We have since
\nbeen able to send them a Scope & Sequence proposition, laying out what the
\nGrade Two Bible lessons would teach, along with several sample lessons. Chris
\nwill be showing these to the Baptist Haiti Mission schools’ director for
\nevaluation. We plan to finish compiling and writing the remaining 30 lessons or
\nso, and getting them all checked by the folks in Haiti, by the end of June,
\nLord willing. We are praying about Martha and I going to Haiti for a few weeks
\nin April, to work face-to-face with the team of translation helpers who will be
\nchecking these lessons in both French and Creole.
\nMeanwhile, I have begun this month to think through the lay-out for the new school<\/strong>
\ncurriculum manuals of the Firm Foundation material. This will become an English
\nbase version, for easier translating into the languages of the world, where
\neach translation needs to be relevant to the culture and age-level of the
\nstudents in their specific schools. We are foreseeing a version that can be
\ntaught starting at a child’s first year of school, and continue progressively
\nthrough each year of elementary\/primary school. The students will study the Old
\nTestament stories that pave the way for the coming of Jesus, and how He is the
\nanswer to their real needs. After reviewing these stories at a couple different
\nage-levels, this curriculum will also teach them the New Testament stories and
\nprinciples that enable us to grow as followers of Jesus. (If you’re interested
\nin more details, feel free to write me, and I’ll be glad to explain in more
\ndetail.)
\nThere are a couple of different people showing interest in buying in our house,
\nright now, so we covet your prayers with us on God’s timing for us to be able
\nto move to Florida, near the NTM Field Ministries office. This would help us
\nfinish the base version project, before we move to Haiti to see it translated
\ninto French. We would also be close to my Mom there, which would be a mutual
\nblessing.
\nThe Palaka people group in Ivory Coast has had some great steps forward, as one
\nof our missionary collegues works through getting several books of the Bible
\nready to be printed for them. Please pray for Denny this month, as she is
\nreviewing Matthew and the first half of Acts with Bible Translation consultants.
\nHer mother-in-law, Jean Johnson (who she & Vern have been caring for)
\npassed away January 3rd, while she has been in Africa. Let’s uphold Vern &
\nDenny in prayer in a special way in these days ahead.<\/p>\n

PRAY with us:
\n1- as we set goals and start working on the Firm Foundation international school<\/strong>
\ncurriculum this month.
\n2- about our plans to visit Haiti in April, Lord willing.
\n3- for God’s leading as we seek to sell our house, and meanwhile work from home
\non different Mission projects.<\/p>\n

PRAISE God with us:
\n1- for helping us develop the grade 2 Bible lessons’ scope & sequence
\nproposal for Haiti last month!
\n2- for the opportunity to briefly visit our NTM field ministries office this
\nmonth (near the NTM retirement Homes where my Mom is.)
\n3- for another year to look forward to \u2013 seeing the Lord building and
\ncompleting His Church, before He comes again.<\/p>\n

Thank you for participating with us in what God is doing and wanting to do in these
\nseveral areas of ministry,<\/p>\n
