We just finished the final missions conference of our deputation!  It was exciting to see a lot of familiar faces at the conference.  Brother Robbie Morrison, was actually the main speaker during our very first missions conference so it was neat that he also preached our last. Also, there were other missionaries there that we’ve met and grown to know in our travels.  One of those is the Sietman family, who will also be leaving shortly for their mission field.  It’s exciting to see the Lord make a way for our friends as they endeavor to serve Him with their lives.  During the meeting we also met others that are just beginning their time of deputation.  It reminded us of when we started, almost two years ago…the excitement, the slight nervousness, and the longing to go.  Now, it’s almost time.  March 26th is coming soon!  I’m so excited to finally get to Cebu!

Our next meeting took us to Kennedy, NY to visit Pastor Herdzik and New Beginnings Baptist Church.  We were excited to see this young church faithfully serving the Lord in their community.  The day we were with them actually marked a year since Pastor Herdzik and his family moved into the area.  Since their move they have witnessed God do many things for them and the church!  One of the most recent blessings was the new tile floor in the church foyer which was absolutely free! Jamestown High School purchased too much of the flooring for their own remodel and donated what was left to the church!   What a blessing to see God’s provision for this body of believers!

The Sunday before Valentines Day we went to New York to present our mission field to two different churches.  From the morning to the afternoon we were with  Pastor Burdick and Maranatha Baptist Church in Mayville.  It wasn’t all that long ago that I filled in the pulpit for Pastor Burdick and met the congregation.  It was good to see them again and some new faces too.  Something fun and unexpected, in honor of Valentines Day a gentleman sang some love songs during lunch.  This was definitely a first for us.  Never before have we been serenaded in our travels!  We had a lot of fun and enjoyed being with the church.  After the afternoon service in Mayville, we traveled to Lockport to be with First Bible Baptist Church for their evening service.  I’ve known Pastor Strobel for many years through the Teen Tristate meetings and looked forward to being at his church for the first time.   During the service I was given the opportunity to preach and show our video presentation.  It won’t be long now before we leave for the Philippines!  Please keep us in prayer as we finish deputatation with just a few more meetings to go!

Great news!  We bought our plane tickets!  We are so excited to be in this final phase of our deputation.  It’s hard to believe that we’re almost there; our time on the road has been fun but we’re looking forward to moving to our new home.  God has blessed us over and over again and we feel so privileged to serve Him in Cebu.  Please keep us in prayer as we finish traveling and prepare to leave.  We have a few more churches to visit and Elizabeth and I have to finish packing our things.  Praise the Lord for great things He has done!!!
