Dear Friends in Christ,
As we mentioned last month, our schedule is quite busy through November. Each week-end, we are traveling to various reservations (Hopi, Navajo & Yavapai-Apache) for meetings and then we will be traveling back to spend Thanksgiving with our family and also a wedding of our grand-daughter, Emily. Our letters for the next couple of months won’t be as regular because of being on the road, so don’t feel that you have been forgotten if you don’t hear from us in Nov. Please do be praying for us as we travel and as Sam teaches and preaches.
Janet is still visiting the elderly that are in Homes here in Flagstaff. Helen goes with her to translate into the Navajo language. It is difficult for Helen because of her personal physical challenges but she is a great help and wants to use her life to serve the Lord. Pray for them as they visit and encourage these women. As they were singing Navajo hymns, suddenly another voice joined in. When the song was finished, the lady clearly stated, “I am a full-blooded Navajo and I am a Christian!” How wonderful to hear such a strong declaration of belonging to Christ! She was invited to join us each time we visit.
Due to a funeral of a Christian brother, the class for the Dine Bible Institute was postponed. The next class is scheduled for Nov 3. They are going to try “modular” classes this year to help those who have to travel a distance to class. These will be 6 hrs long, so Sam will need prayer for his voice to hold out and the students to be able to focus for this extended period of time. Sam was the speaker for their evangelistic services and it was good to see God once again working in hearts and using us. (One lady who lives down the highway a bit, had come to town for gas and heard about the meetings so joined us and came back the next day for more and is now planning on joining the Institute for more study.)
Thank you to each of you for your prayers and gifts that make our ministry here possible.
II Cor. 2:11 “Ye also helping together by prayer for us.”
In Christ,
Sam & Janet Grammer
