We praise God for the five baptisms yesterday from the Sedome/Batoe area. God is working in their hearts to bring them to faith in Jesus and showing His power and love through the Christians there! Continue to pray that the Holy Spirit will work powerfully in this area so that multitudes of people will bow their knees to Jesus and worship Him and Him alone.
As we celebrate Thanksgiving this week we are reminded of how thankful we are for all of you who make our ministry among the Watchi possible…
We are thankful for Homewood who has been our faithful sponsor for over 10 years. We are thankful for the vision that they have always had to reach out to lost people all over the world and for the sacrifices that they make to keep that vision alive.
We are thankful to have had the opportunity to work along-side many wonderful Christian servants.
We are thankful for the hundreds of prayer warriors who have continuously and fervently lifted up our family and ministry in prayer over the last 10 years.
We are thankful for the individual supporters and churches who give so generously towards our family’s, ministry’s and development needs and our children’s education. We praise God for your faithful giving and generous hearts!
We are also thankful for our family, who so willingly and lovingly bless us to minister so far away from home.
I’m also thankful for my wife as she labors by my side in the Kingdom and endures all the hardships of living in a foreign nation and ministering to a foreign people. I’m thankful for my two wonderful sons who have blessed my life so much. I’m thankful for the adoption journey that the Lord is taking us on and look forward bringing our daughter home from China sometime next year.
I’m thankful for the opportunities that Jesus gives me to serve his people here and for the way that their faith is sharpening mine. But most of all, and most importantly, I’m thankful that my name is written in the book of life. Thank you Lord Jesus, thank you…

Thank you Randy! Welcome back. We will miss you at sport’s camp but look forward to seeing you in December…
Thankful for your friendship! Wish we could join you for Thanksgiving and Sports Camp! We just reunited as a family after being apart for almost 2 months (except for a two-day overlap when Kelly returned to Benin prior to my trip to Texas). We just can’t travel right now and as much fun as we’d have at the Sports Camp with Tori and Timothy, I just don’t want to be away from Kelly, Jonathan and Lael. I know you will all have alot of fun together! I do hope we can see each other in December or January sometime. Sounds like you guys are traveling alot though. Hope it works out!
