Dear Ones in Christ,
The highlight of the month of February was our week of revival services with Evangelist Glen Jaspers and his wife Mary. The messages were very timely and a great help. Though we didn't see a lot of decisions made during the week, Gary had the joy of leading Justin Smith to Christ. Justin recently moved back to our reservation from Salt Lake City. A concern we have is that his girlfriend is Mormon. Please pray for his spiritual growth and for her salvation.
One of the blessings of the ministry is seeing God's power evidenced in lives changed for His glory; seeing the growth of new believers and the maturing growth of those older in the faith. At one of the Ladies Bible Studies recently, three ladies were such an encouragement to all there as they shared how God had saved them and delivered them from lives of drugs, alcohol, and immorality. Their great desire is to guide their children in the right way, so that cycle won't be repeated.
Again, we are so thankful for those of you who helped make it possible for us to get our 15 passenger van. It has been put to good use, as we have a “good crop of kids” attending. One Wednesday evening we had sixteen children ride in the van, and four more came later! Despite the large group they, for the most part, behave well.
What a privilege it is to serve our wonderful Saviour, and we thank Him for allowing us to work with these dear folk. This cannot be accomplished without your prayers and support. Thank you for doing your part in the outreach of this ministry.
In Christ,
Gary & Beverly Messick
