In everything give thanks

It is so true that God is worthy of our thanks, adoration and praise at all times, whether we are enduring some form of adversity or in the times of abundance. We praise the Lord for the encouragement that we have received in the past couple weeks as the news of another trip to Manila arrived and we have had excellent meetings with churches, the last two of which have partnered with us in the work in the Philippines! For the first time this past Sunday, I had to go to a meeting without Stephanie and the girls which was disappointing. On friday the baby got sick and by Saturday night, 3 out of 4 were under the weather. Yet, Grace and Truth Baptist church of Amherst was warm and understanding. I thoroughly enjoyed the teaching of Pastor Cesar who is a man that loves the King James Bible and knows it well. The Lord has blessed them with a TV ministry called Search the Scriptures, a Bible institute and a tru heart for outreach and evangelism with a street ministry that goes to the University of Buffalo every week to preach the gospel. It is a privilege to be partnered with such a zealous church and we praise God for all of His goodness to us. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and may God be magnified!
