Dear Friends,

This last month was one of those times when GOD’S MIGHTY HAND WAS CLEARLY MANIFEST AMONG US.  When it all started, we had grand visions of what we hoped to do bless God’s people as we celebrated the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, but our finances and my physical limitations stood as clear obstacles.  In the end, God touched many of your hearts to provide the finances for more than we originally planned, used the Moses Lake Christian Church Mission Team to bless and challenge us to honor to our Lord, and gave me a strength to be more than a conqueror through Him.  It is times like this that it is truly in my heart to be thankful that I have MS, so that I might know that our GOD’S POWER is at work in me, providing for every move I make, even when I have nothing in myself to offer.  HERE IS SOME OF WHAT GOD DID:

  1. On December 24, we had almost 900 people attend our Christmas Program and Meal. 

  2. Ten different groups from our congregation practiced hard for weeks and gave wonderful presentations during the program.

  3. We gave out CHRISTMAS CANDY PACKAGES TO 460 KIDS after the program. 

  4. On the same day we were able to provide CHRISTMAS GROCERY BAGS FOR 160 FAMILIES in our church in Navotas.

  5. On December 31 we provided AN ADDITIONAL 120 CHRISTMAS CANDY PACKAGES FOR  KIDS IN RAGAY.

  6. Also, on December 31 we provided AN ADDITIONAL CHRISTMAS GROCERY BAGS FOR 32 FAMILIES IN RAGAY.

  7. We also subsidized independent Christmas celebrations in MALABON, GOA and CARAMOAN. 

  8. We also gathered and fed, spiritually and physically, about 100 TEENAGERS ON DECEMBER 27 from NAVOTAS and MALABON.  The Moses Lake Team did a great job of ministering new life into them.

 

2007 STARTED WITH A BLAST AND IT IS NOT OVER YET.  This week, we are preparing for a SECOND SHORT-TERM MISSION TEAM OF 10 PEOPLE  from Havre, Montana and Grand Junction, Colorado.   They will arrive on February 2.  I will be traveling in the BICOL AREA  for the next 5 days making final preparations for their visit and ministry.   

I’M SO GLAD TO BE A MISSIONARY serving together with people like you who really care about what God is doing in the world.  Your mission teams sent, your generous donations, your faithful prayers and your encouragement are making a difference for the Glory of God.  God bless you.

 

In Christ,

Dale
