Hi Friends and Family!
Here is a quick update:
– the Lord laid on Karen’s heart to have a Bible study with
3 of the young women here on our compound;
> please pray that the Lord will guide her in this regards!
– Patrick will be speaking at the Hillcrest assembly on
Sunday December the 16th;
> please pray that the Lord will give Patrick the appropriate topic,
guidance and wisdom!
– Patrick is still helping with the exegesis translation of selected Gospel-
and apologetic writings and texts;
> please continue to pray for the Lord to help and guide in this task!
– We are now in the final stages in the Visa process;
> please pray that the Lord will allow everything to go well!
– Our language study is going well. Praise the Lord!
> please continued to pray for this task: it is somewhat difficult…
– One of the local full time workers, Gerry Ui, is praying for the Lord to
establish a new, English speaking home assembly, here on our compound.
> please pray that the Lord will guide and direct in this regards!
– We praise the Lord for providing a vehicle for us!
> We are so thankful, because it will make our ministry so much more efficient!
(We are now able to spend more time with people and less time standing in line
and waiting for public transportation…). Thank you Lord!
– BSA (Bible School of the Air) is very busy these days, especially with Christmas
being so close; they send out and grade over 2.5 million correspondence courses
every year! BSA is not operated or funded by ECS (Emmaus Correspondence School)
or the Emmaus Bible College…
> please continue to pray for this important ministry!
> please continue to pray for the completion of the new BSA building, which has
stopped construction due to lack of funds…
So, that’s all for now…
We think of you often and miss you all very much!
With much love,
Patrick & Karen Carder
