Dear Friends and Partners,
If you have been receiving our newsletters for some time you have probably noticed increases in several areas. The crusades have increased, meetings have increased, the number of salvations is increasing, and our family has also increased in size. Not only has God been blessing the ministry but our personal lives as well. God has blessed us with wonderful volunteers who have taken over areas that I did before the little ones came along. This allows me to be with the children and train them up in the way they should go.
Along with these increases come more responsibilities. God has truly given us the grace to fulfill each area. God has graced our volunteers to accomplish their many tasks we give them. God has graced Kenney to wear many different hats at the same time. And God has also graced the family to live our lives around the ministry.
As I write this letter, Kenney is in Zimbabwe holding pastor meetings in the day and crusades in the evenings. He then immediately travels to the Democratic Republic of the Congo for more crusades. He is gone for a total of 20 days! Then in December he will be in the nation of India. February he will be in Liberia. So the ministry and family are keeping Kenney lifted up in prayer and we're praying for ourselves as well.
John 4:35 tells us to "OPEN OUR EYES AND LOOK AT THE FIELDS (SOULS), THEY ARE RIPE FOR HARVEST!" There are too many people in this world that have never heard the name of Jesus! There are too many who have never tasted that the Lord is Good. There are too many dying, lost, and in bondage. Kenney and I have looked and we see! And we have decided to do what Jesus said in Luke 16:15, to GO!
In Isaiah 51 & 52 you read about the condition of the church and the nations. It's not a delightful picture, but then in chapter 52 verse 6, "the people WILL KNOW HIS NAME." Verse 7 says, "HOW BEAUTIFUL ON THE MOUNTAINS ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWSTHEY WILL SHOUT FOR JOY AND ALL THE ENDS OF THE EARTH WILL SEE THE SALVATION OF OUR GOD."
We are thankful that God is using us. We are thankful to Him for you. We are thankful for the increase. We are thankful for all the prayers. We are thankful for all the support. But mostly, we are thankful that His Glory is being revealed in the nations of the world today!
Please, pray for KLM International and if you haven't made a decision to support what we are doing please consider joining us as we reap the harvest fields. We are not depending on people to support us, we depend on God. We just want to give you the opportunity to come along with us because we can do so much more together!
Your missionary evangelists,
