Summer on
Manitoulin Island is wonderful as testified by the doubling of our
population from about 10,000 to 20,000. Never heard of Manitoulin
Island? It is the largest fresh water island in the world and sits in
northern Georgian Bay of Lake Huron. Marilyn and I are enjoying
living and working here but we will be in Southern Ontario this weekend
where all of our family will be together for the first time in two
years! Amber & David from Holland and Zach and Naomi from Nova
Scotia will be at Shannon & Christian's in Holland Landing. Six
grandkids all together! Grandma and Grandpa are doing a happy dance!
We
are also thankful for what God continues to do through our friends in
other nations. A big "Thank you!" to our partners in the home for
women at risk in Tajikistan. Your generous gifts have given us funding
for the next few months. It is the only such home in that nation of 7
million and women whose lives have been changed there have already begun
another two homes in other cities. More Lord!
We
are thankful for the influence of our little book, "The Luke 10
Manual". It is now available in 12 languages, including English (free
PDF downloads from our site) with another three in the works. The Tedim
(a Burmese tribal language) version is now ready to print and the
Swahili and Kinyarwanda versions are near printing. Would you consider
helping us publish in these languages? We need $1500 for 1,000 copies
in each language. The purpose? To help start disciples making
movements in Burma and Central Africa. As the African brother says,
"The church in Africa has been over evangelized and under discipled. It
is a mile wide and a quarter inch deep. We need this book to start
movements of disciple making."
Recently
we discovered a circle of disciple makers in Moscow that began after
reading the Russian edition of "The Luke 10 Manual". The Holy Spirit
is using that little book to help people do all that Jesus commanded and
we ask for your help to put it into the hands of many others.
Need some summer reading?
You can order your hard copy or an electronic version from www.lulu.com .
Have a great summer
Your friends
Steve & Marilyn
