  • Missionary #6013 Prayer Letter: Prayer for Our FriendAs always, our family thanks those of you who consistently pray for God’s blessing and protection on us. The summer is going fast for us, as I’m sure it is for all of you as well. My wife will soon be ready to deliver our next child, we are both studying hard to make our Chinese more serviceable, and we continue to go out and meet people whom the Lord has led us to invest in.

    Prayer for C___

    We draw a lot of attention when we travel to the market with our whole family. It’s become a great opportunity to pass out our tracts and invite people to church. It was at the market a few months ago that we met C___. He is an older man who happens to be a reporter here in Yilan. He speaks some broken English, so with my broken Mandarin, we were able to talk for a while and exchange information. We have invited him to church and special events, and he still has not attended; but he has invited us to local events in Yilan that he covers for his newspaper. He has even taken us to the local government center to introduce us to some of his contacts there.

    A few months ago, we were able to attend a Spring Festival event with him in the nearby city of Luodong. There were many performances by children’s choirs, and booths were set up to sell food special to the holiday. Our children helped us to pass out hundreds of tracts while all of the people were gathered.

    A number of weeks ago, we went to a “Green Expo” with C___, where we were able again to pass out tracts to many people. We spoke to him about salvation when we were there with him, and he wasn’t willing to say much. He did share that he went to a religious school when he was younger, but it is clear that he is not ready to make any personal decisions. Interestingly, there were Buddhists passing out material at the expo as well. When we waited at the bus stop, C___ pointed out a few Buddhist volunteers that he encouraged our kids to go give a tract to. Also, when we were at the bus stop with him, he took a tract from me, removed a Buddhist tract from the wall of the shelter, and placed our tract in its place. We don’t know for sure how God is working on his heart, but please pray specifically for C___. Pray with our family that he does choose to accept Christ.

    More Requests

    This pregnancy has been a particularly difficult one on my wife. She has had some serious issues with blood pressure that led the doctors to medicate her through the remainder of the pregnancy. There is, of course, the added stress of delivering our first child overseas. If you would, please pray for her especially in the next couple of weeks leading up to the due date; we need an extra dose of the Lord’s comfort and wisdom.

    Thank you for being the servants of God who read our letters, who care, who cheer, and who pray. Always remember that our family is praying for you as you are praying for us.

    Here for Him,

    Missionary #6013
