After King Nebuchadnezzar spent seven humble years living as an animal, God restored him to his right mind. He had learned his lesson, and acknowledged the God of Heaven as the one true Sovereign. Even though Nebuchadnezzar was the most powerful king in his time, he realized that no one can grab God’s hand and say, “Hey, what are you doing?” (Dan 4:35).

This past month we hosted Zach, a young wunderkind that our mission sent to take pictures and video of all the GMSA missionaries in Chile. We enjoyed getting to know him for a few days, and of course, we showed him all around our city. It’s always interesting to see your city through the eyes of someone seeing it for the first time. Hopefully, you’ll get to see some of the fruits of his labor very soon.

Our regular schedule of church ministries and discipleship Bible studies has continued. Mark took on the responsibility of encouraging three elders from a small church about five hours away that is looking for a pastor. The men’s and ladies’ monthly Bible studies started up for the new year. Our church had a baptismal service yesterday at the oceanfront, where two adults gave public testimony of their faith in Jesus Christ. Please pray for their continued obedience as they learn to observe everything Jesus has commanded us.

This afternoon we are traveling to the United States for two and a half weeks. We have the opportunity to participate in a missionary conference in Massachusetts and to spend a few days with Bekah’s family. We appreciate your prayers for us during our travels and ministry.
