Hey everyone!
Blessings to you during these days of uncertainty with
COVID! God is still on His throne, and we can trust Him in full faith as He
works all things together for the good of those who love Him and are called
according to His purpose!

From Becky...
I continue to reflect on my time in Thailand in February. It
truly was amazing to see months of preparation culminate in the annual “Real
Men Buy Flowers, Not Girls” celebration. Over 60 women who work in the sex
tourism industry were treated to a special evening with music, moving
testimonies from those who have left the trade and an invitation into skills
programs as a way to provide for themselves and their families.
Upon my return, COVID 19 was making its way around the
globe, so 3 stateside trips were postponed, but PRAISE THE LORD for technology
to be able to be in contact with our GoSendMe missionaries and partners in the
USA and 31 other countries. I’ve been amazed at how innovative people have become
in finding ways to conduct ministry.
The virus has not caught God off guard! May He work in ways
we cannot imagine to touch hearts and draw souls to Himself!
From Tom...
It was a hard decision to return to the USA during COVID 19.
Sierra Leone experienced Ebola in 2014-2016, and we can’t imagine what another
crisis will do to the country. I am thankful to be in ongoing communication
with our security guards and construction crew and to know that they are doing
well. Ibrahim Sankoh and the crew were continuing with the projects until a
recent lockdown was declared. Sierra Leone is currently on a partial shutdown
with curfews and has cases of Coronavirus and deaths rising by the day. Please
pray for our friends in Sierra Leone as they trust the Lord for health and
their daily needs.
From Bo...
I want to thank you all again for your prayers and support
for my mission trip to Doncaster, England over spring break. It was a privilege
to serve the people (children and youth), and it was eye-opening to learn that
many in the country have not heard much about Jesus. I had the opportunity to
share part of my story and it was received very well!
I can’t believe I am about to graduate from TCS! I have been
taking dual credit courses over the past year, and I will continue to tackle my
basic courses at Grayson College for 2020-21 as I pursue a degree in Business
Administration.
A passage that's so appropriate for this time:
Habakkuk 3:17-19
Personalized for COVID 19
Even though
... CORONAvirus
Even though
... social distancing
Even though
... no hugs from GRANDS
Even though
... empty store shelves
Even though
... sickness & death
Even though
... schools closed
Even though
... senior activities stifled
Even though
... (fill in YOUR ‘even thoughs’)
"Yet I will exult in the Lord, I will rejoice in the God of
my salvation. The Lord God is my strength, and He has made my feet like hind’s
feet, and makes me walk on my high places!"
Thank you for your faithful prayers and support!!
