Thursday

“Do no fear, for I am with you;

Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you, surely I will help you,

Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”

~Isaiah 41:10, NASB~

Please pray for Betty Allen.  She is hospitalized in Amite.

Blessings for Bangladesh

The Galvins* work in South Asia with the unreached of Bangladesh. Many of the people there have never heard of Jesus. The Galvins are grateful for your gifts to Lottie Moon, which make it possible for them to reach the lost tribal people of Bangladesh:

• $0.50 will buy a songbook of indigenous hymns.
• $1 will provide a meal for one person attending a leadership meeting. Since these are rural farmers, if they don’t work, many don’t have money to eat.
• $1 will buy a complete Bible for a new believer. • $10 will cover the costs of a team taking the JESUS film to remote villages. LMCO gifts from last year bought a portable projector and generator for showing the film.
• $25 helps to cover the monthly travel expenses of trainers as they travel to give Bibles and leadership training to new church leaders.
• $30 will send one village pastor to a week-long training event with seminary-educated and field-experienced instructors.
• $50 will fill a tank of gas, enabling missionaries to travel to leadership trainings in district towns and to remote areas to share the Gospel.
• $50 will cover one month’s tuition for one of the tribal team’s children to attend a local, national school, providing a beacon of hope to their Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist classmates lost in darkness.

Will you continue to give so that more people in Bangladesh can hear the Good News?
