“God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency
in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.”
2 Corinthians 9:8
We are so thankful for that grace—just the kind of grace we need: an all-sufficient, for-all-things, at-all-times, good-work-producing, abounding grace! Time and time again we have seen that grace manifest in our life and ministry.
2010 is speeding along quickly, and many exciting things are happening here at To Every Tribe. The next couple of months will be especially busy for us.
This week I will be traveling down to the south-central Mexican cities of Queretaro and Guadalajara to visit with To Every Tribe missionaries Jim Blomstrand and Ruben and Debbie Ibañez for a few days. Jim and the Ibañezes are preparing to be part of a church planting team headed for the southern Mexico state of Oaxaca in the next few months. Please pray for my trip and for Jim Blomstrand and the Ibañez family.
Also please continue to pray for my upcoming trip to Papua New Guinea in May. Plane tickets have been purchased, and plans for the trip are coming together nicely. Thanks to those of you who have generously contributed to the trip fund.
Please pray for us as we continue to line up instructors and enroll students for the 2010-12 Center for Pioneer Church Planting school years. We are excited about the switch from a one-year to a two-year program.
Thank you for your continued prayer for our support raising. Our support level is currently at 46.8%, up from 32% when we sent out our January prayer update.
Our family is doing well. We have enjoyed becoming increasingly involved in Divine Providence Church. I have been team-teaching a weekly Bible study on the New Testament, and Ruth has begun to play the piano for the Sunday worship service. Also, we are excited that Divine Providence has partnered with To Every Tribe and is participating with us in church planting in northern Mexico. Jonathan, Christian, and Katelyn are doing well. Jonathan and Christian are both playing soccer in a city kids’ soccer league. Katelyn is now 7 months old and is growing quickly.
Thank you all for your faithful prayer and support of our ministry. May God richly bless you with his all-sufficient, for-all-things, at-all-times, good-work-producing, abounding grace!
For the gospel and the kingdom,
AJ and Ruth
