Dear Fellow Saints,
ALL
ABOUT US: God gave
us a vision of 50,000 for camp, equipping us to accomplish His
goal. Words can not express what the Lord is doing here
in the lives of these young Filipinos. Our churches and the
Bible College are filling up with those whose lives have been
forever changed and who desire to change the "forever" of others
through the gospel. In the midst of all this activity it
is time for us to return Stateside for furlough.
KEEP
PRAYING: 1. The staff and workers of ABC
will keep the vision in front of them and work hard despite our
absence. 2. Cell groups that have been formed will stay
strong and committed to discipling new believers. 3. Our
children will adjust back to life in the USA without too much
difficulty. 4. Safety for our son Jon, currently in Iraq.
EXCITING
EVENTS: 1. While in the states, we
will change from the BBFI "short term" mission program to
affiliated status with the BBFI 2. Tammy has officially
been accepted to teach again at Faith Academy upon our return
next year. This will reduce the fees for all BBFI missionaries
with children at Faith. 3. Our son Jon gets "leave" from Iraq
this June or July so we may see him and hold him close, it has
been a long time!
REST
OF OUR NEEDS: We need you; you are
the conduit between the vision God gives us and the fruit you
read about in these letters-you empower our hands and
feet with your generous giving and faithful prayers. We hope to
see all of you face to face in this upcoming year. Until we get
established our contact number will be our sending church

SING
PRAISE TO GOD:
Looking back over the last 4 years
in the Philippines, we know all things have been accomplished
through the grace and power of our Lord. Beginning our
"missionary" journey 8 years ago, we carried with us Jeremiah
10:23 "I know, 0 Lord, that a man's way is not in himself;
Nor is it in man who walks to direct his steps." .
Pagpalain ka ng Diyos
Love Roger and Tammy
We praise
the Lord for your partnership!
Now
thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in
Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in
every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14 (KJV)
