Good news from a far off land is like water to a thirsty soul. How great a time we had in Ecuador in the construction of a roof for one of the Churches in the Quito area. Bro. Schembera had this project working and I went to help with what ever I could do for the week. The Pastor is one of the professors in our Institute.

   Let me give you a report as I have received them from Ecuador. Bro. Luis is working in a suburb of Quito and he baptized 15 during the month of OCT. Another pastor by the name of Luis has led 4 people to the Lord in a town called Guayllbamba. Bro. Franklin in Santo Domingo has won 4 people to the Lord and will be baptizing them soon.

   The youth from Mt. Zion Baptist Church in Jasper, Georgia have raised the money to buy the lot on the coast in Ecuador. Bro. Manuel did all the paper work and the lot is in the name of the Church of Santo Domingo. Please make it a matter of prayer that we would like to have about 12 to15 men go and help us with the construction of a small building on the coast of Ecuador in a poor fishing village. We would like to do this in the month of April 2009. Would your Church like to go and help in this project? Let me know.

   You have been so faithful to support Charlene and me for many years and we thank you for the support both financially and prayerfully. Charlene's health is not what she would like it to be, so please continue to pray for us.
