DeFord’s update 2016
Messick update Dec 2016
Dear Ones in Christ, A Christmas card we received stated it so well: “JESUS is – The Lamb of God, to die for our sins. The Prince of Peace, to change out hearts. The Good Shepherd, to guide our lives.” Our prayer is that each one reading this might know Jesus Christ in this way. […]

Nov 2016 Dear Friends in Christ, Thanks for your prayers for the second trip to Alaska this summer. The footers are now in place and the weather was good for the work.

Messick’s September 2016
SEPTEMBER 2016 Dear Ones in Him, 2 Peter 3:18 encourages us to “Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” It is our desire to daily see spiritual progress in our lives and in the lives of those we minister to. We know this can only happen as we draw from […]
Veldhuis September 2016
Dear Co-laborers in Christ, Folded but unmailed updates as far back as June together with repeatedly delayed R&R of any sort or building and vehicle repairs bespeak the priority of Cocopah ministries over almost anything else in our lives. Thankfully, untimely correspondence on our part could not jeopardize your faithful enabling any more than it […]

Gary & Bev Messick August 2016
Dear Ones in Him, As we begin our thirty-second year serving among the Native Americans of Arizona the years have been full of blessings and challenges and experiences that have stretched us in our walk with Christ, and it has been a wonderful privilege to be a part of God’s work here. The first half […]
Steve De Ford July 2016
Lamentations 3:24 The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him. Greetings from sunny Arizona! We finished an unusually dry July with some much needed rain. But the late rain was just one of the many blessings we received from the Lord this past month. Early in the month several […]
Grammer’s July 2016 Update
July 2016 Dear Friends in Christ, About every 3-4 weeks, Janet goes to a local nursing home to visit one of the ladies from Tuba City. Because of the age of this lady, she doesn’t speak much English, so Janet takes a Navajo Christian (Helen) with her to translate. Together we sing in Navajo and […]
