Where do we go from here? Just what can we do
now? I recently heard that there are no holidays or big events until late May. I
beg to differ.
There are no Super Bowls to be played for
another year... no large spending reasons either. All true facts but for us the
day our Savior rose from the dead is approaching! As well the day of His return
draws closer by the hour. So let's get to work, shall we?
Here are a few facts about Chris and
Faith Anderson in Mangalia, Romania. Remember they are members of Gospel
Baptist Church. Mangalia, with a population of about 36,400 people,(1)
lies on the eastern border of the Black Sea. Temperatures there are similar to
ours but they do seem to get more snow. It is largely Romanian Orthodox with a
small number of Muslims. Chris has been preaching every Sunday night at a small
Baptist church in a nearby village. As well, a growing ministry has surfaced in
a coffee shop. More on that soon.
We hear/sing "I'll go where you
lead Lord..." Will we? Mar Cabrero (Philippines) goes to prison every
Wednesday morning where he leads a Bible study for 30 inmates.
If you have ever worked out or
ran, you know there is no progress without sweat and effort. Same goes for the
missionaries world. So give your time and especially your prayers to our God
who hears you. There will be results such as this... from Trans World Radio (TWR)...
"I decided that whether I live or die or my family deserts me, I will
accept the truth that Jesus is my savior!" Those words are from a former
Muslim soldier in Pakistan who had heard a TWR broadcast. GBC supports TWR.
We are called on to spread the
Gospel. Whatever platform you are on or who you find yourself in front of, remember
God uses everyone! From an underdog football team from Philly to an isolated
missionary in Africa to the frigid Alaskan winter. Humbly all glory to God!!!
