Season
Greetings
As
we approach the celebration of the birth of our Saviour, one
cannot help but give Him Praise for His many blessings.
I
would like to thank all of you my friends and faithful
supporters for your part in the ministry in the Caribbean,
especially those of you who have prayed for and financially
provided for my three trips to the
United States
this year for medical attention. I would especially like to
thank Dr. Gary Sajko and the staff of Suffolk Eye
Associates together with the Staff at
Sentara Obici Ambulatory Surgery Center in
Suffolk
Va.
for their generosity and professional care in making
my surgery a success.
The
Lighthouse Baptist Fellowship Conference hosted by
Chin
Chin
Baptist
Church
was a tremendous blessing with several off-island visitors. The
Twelfth Annual LBF Conference would be hosted by
Grace
Ind.
Baptist
Church
in
Barbados
, July 5- 10, 2009 I would like to take the
opportunity on behalf of Dr. Tony Ward and
Grace
Ind.
Baptist
Church
to extend an invitation to you to come and be with us.
We
are encouraged by your faithfulness and prayers in the midst
of all the political, financial, racial and criminal
instability of our nation, to date our murder rate stands at
an all time high of 461 with four (4) of them taking place
within less than one hundred yards of the church.
We
rejoice in the number of kids that attended our VBS (135) and
the professions of faith made by several of them. We praise
God for the number of professions of faith by others over the
year both during the Tent Crusade and church services, also
for the five that followed the Lord in believer’s baptism.
I
have had the privilege of visiting several of my supporting
churches over this past year and sharing with them my burden
of now going to
CARONI
Village
to start a new church. I am encouraged by the response I have
gotten. Thanks to Bible Baptist Church of Reidsville,
NC for being the first of my supporting churches to make a
onetime gift and to Calvary Baptist Church of
Smithfield, Va. together with Calvary Baptist Church of
Norfolk, Va. for their continued support in this new ministry.
As
Caribbean Director with Bread of Life Baptist Mission
one of my responsibilities is to seek prayer and financial
support for our young men who have graduated from
Bible
College
and to assist in establishing N.T. Baptist churches. I would
like to thank the four of my supporting churches who have
responded to this need. Our goal is not only to train our
young men in a local (Caribbean environment) but to assist
them financially without they having to leave the field for
the
USA
.
We
would like to say a special “Thank You” for your continued
prayers and financial support over the past years and trust
you would continue to lift us up in your prayers.
Please
pray for:
- Souls
to be saved as we work the five villages in
CARONI
.
- Tracts,
song books and gospel literature to enhance our outreach
ministry.
- Personal
safety as we work with drug addicts in troubled areas.
- My
personal support as well as support for our Local
Missionaries:
- Building
material for the work in
Caroni
where land has already been secured.
- Short
term (US) construction help.
“For
we are laborers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry,
ye are God’s building”.
l Cor. 3:9 It is my prayer to truly represent our Lord Jesus
Christ and you as you continue to partner with us in this
great work of faith both here in the Caribbean and
Guyana
,
South America
.
We
wish to take this opportunity to wish you and yours a
Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year.
