Day 16 Mission to Minister to the Persecuted Church

Minya, Egypt

Time: October 29 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm Egypt time (10:00 am – 2:00 pm CDT)

Minya Egypt Stand Firm Conference

We have arrived safely in Minya, Egypt and got a good night's rest. We are enjoying all of the wonderful sights and sounds and smells of Egypt. Yesterday we had the opportunity to stop at the Nile river. I had to go down and put my foot in the water of the Nile! As we stood on the shore there were boys casting nets and fishing like people have done for thousands of years!
Jesus said, "Follow Me and I will make you fishers of men!"
Please pray for us tonight, tomorrow and Saturday as we teach the Minya Egypt Stand Firm Conference to Pastors as well as to Christians from their churches and the MELTI staff. This is set up like a typical church conference we would have in the US, with one meeting tonight, three tomorrow and one on Saturday. By the way, the weekend here in Egypt for most people is Friday and Saturday! Please pray for us to make the message clear and culturally relevant. Please pray for healing as both of us have colds. Most of all please pray God speaks to every heart and that these dear brothers and sisters in Christ learn to Stand Firm in the face of satanic attacks on their minds. Thank you each one for praying for us. We know God is blessing us because of the faithful prayers of the saints!

My journey of faith started when I was nine years old when I realized that Jesus died and rose again to pay for my sins. At the age of thirteen I felt the call of God on my life for ministry.

I have been fortunate to work in the marketplace for over ten years and in full-time Christian ministry for over thirty years.

My passion is to teach God's Word in such a way that it is easy to understand and so that God uses it to bring about life change in those who hear it.

It is my greatest joy to see God work through me to produce fruit for His glory!
