Welcome Home Mommy!
Sarah spent a few weeks back in the US to help with her dad who had a series of strokes in early March. Her time in Iowa gave her Mom a chance to rest. It also gave Sarah a chance to be with her dad. We are thankful that Sarah was able to help out and that her dad recouped enough that he was able to leave the Rebab unit and continue his rehab at home. We surprised her by meeting her at the airport. We are happy that she is HOME AGAIN!!
Victories for Christ

Gary Lupe, a graduate of the Apache Christian Training School has brought the average Sunday attendance at Cibicue from 30 to over 100 by God’s good grace.

How is mission work going in your part of the Kingdom? Is a lot happening? Or does it seem like status quo?
There is nothing exciting to write to you this month. That is, nothing other than the steady preaching and teaching of the Word and the outreach to whomever will listen! Out faithful Kingdom Worker volunteer couple, Chris and Cara Ewings, is busy giving instruction classes, piano lessons, working with the youth group and making visits. They find time to help at the church with finishing details – painting ironwork windows, for instance, or shoveling sand back up into the pile after it is been spread out by wind and rain. Chris teaches Greek to our seminary student and preaches now and then.
Four students of the “It Is Finished” Bible Institute in Chiang Mai have a particularly special reason to celebrate.
