Mayflower Minutes
This last Sunday night, East met West as the Holly Tree Bible church hosted the Mayflower Group. It was a festive night of food, fellowship, and exhortation from God's Word. Pastor Pan shared a challenging message (translated by his son Paul) that encouraged us to reflect on our walk with God. He shared that the same miracle-working God that delivered the children of Israel out of Egypt and the pilgrims to the new world also delivered these Chinese believers from their persecutors. The same God must also deliver us from temptation, materialism, and the cares of this world. Let's remember our humble beginnings and depend on God's grace for our daily deliverance.
Battalion Update | Capt. Vanderford
Although each day was around 100°, deployment went very well last week. The projects we worked on primarily consisted of chainsaw work. Altogether, the staff and volunteers were able to finish over 100 work orders—about half of the work orders that Samaritan’s Purse still has remaining. The men also had many opportunities to minister to people with various spiritual needs. We are over halfway through this quarter. Please pray for God to continue to do a great work in the lives of the men as they train through the last month of 2nd Phase.
