Tuesday we visited missionary friends who live near us. Daniel and Françoise Dossmann served the Lord in Abidjan with Reach Beyond/HCJB before the
Ivorian political crisis caused them to return home to France. They eventually settled in Tennessee, close to their son and his family. Daniel, an exceptional classical guitarist, took time to give Cason and other MK boys lessons before the conflict scattered us. For years their son Oliver dreamed, planned, and brought to fruition the development of a beautiful retreat center. It was built with missionaries in mind, but is available to others. Living up to its name, EdenRidge is tucked in a remote and peaceful setting of Middle Tennessee with gorgeous accommodations. If you know someone who needs a spiritual or physical retreat, have them look at this dream destination.
Similarly, the Shalom Retreat Center at BailiTeal Farm (headquarters for our mission, Christian Health Service Corps) also offers a wonderful retreat option in northeastern Texas. They host many groups throughout the year. These retreats assist with administrative costs for the mission. Guest staying there help keep each CHSC missionary’s monthly admin fees lower than average. Not only would you receive an extremely warm welcome in a beautiful setting, but you would also help touch the unreached and underserved peoples of the world.
Verlin returns to Cote d’Ivoire on Monday—our current dream destination because it is the Lord’s place for us to serve! He has meetings in Abidjan for a few days and then will head west, instead of home, to further work on details for the Million Village Challenge conference coming in November. There are several Community Health Evangelism (CHE) workers in that region to encourage and mentor, as well.
Prayer & Praise:
- Pray for our missionary friend, Daniel Dossmann. He is battling melanoma, and was referred to Vanderbilt this week to see another oncologist.
- Ask for Verlin to have a good trip back to Cote d’Ivoire on Monday, and safe travels as he meets people in Abidjan and elsewhere immediately.
- Pray for the family and friends of veteran FWB missionaries Archie and Sarah Mayhew. Sarah joined her husband in heaven this week—our ultimate and real dream destination! This couple’s faithful work still impacts our part of Cote d’Ivoire today, decades later, and we have learned much from their example.
