Hi all!
We just came back from the annual CMPI (Christian Missions in the Philippines Islands) missionary retreat in Rizal Laguna, which is about 2-3h south of us.
Many of the PH missionaries attended this 3 day event and we had a good time of fellowship, singing, prayer and fun. Phil Barnes of MSC was the speaker.
It was great to get to know our fellow co-workers a little better…
Also, many of the folks are sick with fevers, so please pray for the Lord to keep everyone healthy…
– Aunt Rose Brooks had a follow up with the doctors and she is doing well!
Please continue to pray for her strength to increase…
– The New Zealand team of 16 has left. They distributed over 80,000 Gospel tracts in about 10 days and over 100 people already contacted BSA and asked for ECS courses! Praise the LORD!
Please pray that many will “Call upon the LORD” and be saved!
– We (the Carders) are planning to go to Romblon Island next week, Oct 22nd, to get started with the repairs on the rental house there. The amount of work that needs to be done before December 27th (which is our move date…) is overwhelming.
Please pray for safety while traveling, for the Lord’s provision, and that the Lord will “direct our steps” (Prov 16:9)
We miss you all!
With much love,
in Him,
Patrick & Karen
“…God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God…” 1 John 5:11-13 NKJV
