Dear church families and friends,
Our family is very thankful for all your prayers and financial support! It helps us plant seeds on the reservation (Psalm 126:6 KJV). The last few months have been GREAT! In the last 3 months, we have seen 8 people get saved and had 9 new visitors! To God Be the Glory!!!
In February, Brother Jacob presented at several churches. On Feb. 8th, he presented at Strongholds Baptist Church in Pinon, AZ, during the morning service and Ganado Baptist Church in Ganado, AZ, during the Evening Service. From February 17th- 19th, he attended the Servants Conference in Hammond, IN.
In March, Brother Jacob presented at Choice Hills Baptist Church of Pahrump, NV, on the 15th. On March 21st, Brother Jacob and Lydia took the Teens Bowling. We had 6 in attendance, and they had a great spirit.
In April, we had the privilege of having Evangelist Tim Green on the 2nd-3rd. He was a huge blessing! On the 4th, we celebrated Resurrection Sunday as a church family with a brunch after the morning service. On the 12th, I led a lady named Josephine to the Lord. Her children had been attending our church with their cousins, and we were told she was in the hospital. I went to visit her up in the Phoenix hospital and found she was suffering from liver failure and was unsure of the salvation story. I visited her several times, presented the plan of salvation, and she accepted Christ. On April 19th, we celebrated our church’s 5th Anniversary. On the 26th of April, Josephine passed while waiting for a transplant. Please pray for her children and extended family.
