Unimpeded

Taste and See (Psalm 34:8)

On Monday, March 11, millions of Muslims began Ramadan, their dawn-to-dusk fasting month, hoping to gain unimpeded access to God and His blessings. Of course, we know from God’s Word that no amount of fasting can take away their sins or ours. Sadly, their credo, context, culture, and community pressure make a change to follow Jesus unthinkable to many of them. Yet despite these obstacles, thousands of Muslims worldwide ARE coming to the Good Shepherd Who laid down His life for us all. In the process, they experience their first unimpeded communion with our heavenly Father!

Every year, we spend extra time during Ramadan, joining other believers who pray for Muslims to come to Christ. Specific faces of dear friends come to mind, but we do not want to put them in danger by listing names. Thank you for praying with us.

Come and See (Psalm 34:8)

As Verlin settled into the West African CHE Internship location this past week, we had hoped for an unimpeded Internet connection like in years past. Instead, an

underwater cable in the region reportedly broke, affecting coverage for several nations, including Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire. So much for easy communication! He was not able to edit or add details to this update. As a result, you will experience Debbie’s limited capacity to get pictures properly situated in HTML format! Nevertheless, Verlin had a productive and blessed week. He enjoyed teaching some sessions and getting to know the participants. The Lord provided a good connection for future CHE ministry in Cote d’Ivoire. Next week, he expects an even busier schedule. Because some of the attendees work in areas hostile to the Gospel, we will not share photos of them without permission.

Prayer & Praise

  • πŸ™ Muslims worldwide began Ramadan, their month of dawn-to-dusk fasting, on March 11. Pray that many people encounter our Savior through the testimony of Christians, exposure to God’s Word, and dreams of Jesus. Pray for friends we have who need the courage to follow Him.
     
  • πŸ™ Continue to pray for the West African CHE Internship. Since Verlin’s capacity to communicate via the Internet is limited, our updates may have formatting glitches (Debbie apologizes in advance!) or not arrive when you usually expect them. We will do the best we can.
     
  • πŸ™ Debbie’s mother, Sandra, continues to struggle with heart issues. Pray that three medicine changes this week will give her relief. She is not a candidate for surgery at this time. Debbie returns with her to the cardiologist on Monday.
Your partners in the Gospel,
Verlin & Debbie
