Dominican Republic Trip, March 25 –
April 1: A team of fourteen went to the Dominican Republic in March for a
dual purpose missions effort: to teach ESL classes and to lay a tile floor in
a church. This teaching/construction project allowed believers with a variety of talents to
come together on a common trip to share God’s love and the gift of
eternal life through Jesus Christ with the people of this Caribbean
nation. Praise God for His work through our team members:
• Pastor Herb Pace • John and Aimee Barber • Judy Barton • Don
Cruikshank
• Matt Cruikshank • Rich and Ruth Hilbert • Chuck Kelly •
Jo Ann Mueller • Neil Schmidt • Megan Schmidt
• Joseph Wagman • Steve Waldhauser • Joel White

M-Fuge
2008 - Belmont University Nashville, TN Pray for
the planning and preparation for this summers M-Fuge trip to Nashville. We ask that
God would give his direction for this summer and that we would be sensitive
to his leading as we get ready to go, and that we would share in a huge God
Success this summer. We are implementing a new process for camp readiness and
are requiring the students to participate in multiple training aspects to be
prepared to be used of God in a big way. Pray for all the students and
chaperones that will be traveling to Tennessee
this summer to do God's work!

Missions efforts!
Praise God for the ministry efforts and building projects
that Don Cruikshank and his wife Karen were able to assist in when they went
to Jamaica
with a combine Missions group to from local churches, earlier this year. They
were very helpful in accomplishing many tasks that God had for them to
complete. All praise and honor be to God who gives us the opportunity to be
used in His Kingdom work. Please keep praying for the work there in Jamaica,
that God would continue to raise up people who would serve in ministry, and
outreach.

Summer 2007 Mission News Update:
Trinidad 2007 - At the end of July, nine of the thirteen
team members from the 2006 Trinidad team, accompanied by six new team
members, returned to assist in the work that God has given our IMB
missionaries in Trinidad. Children and adults enjoyed the singing, puppets,
and Bible stories that were part of the Backyard Bible Club and special rally
that were held. In addition, one afternoon was spent holding a health clinic
during which blood pressure screenings were done while dental kits and
reading glasses were distributed. On the last day of ministry, the host for
the Bible club commented that they have many visitors who they call friends,
but that our team members were true friends. Continue to pray for the people
of Trinidad, both those who need to know the
Savior and those who know Him and are faithfully sharing His love with their
neighbors.
Youth Group M-Fuge camp- we give thanks to God for his
work with the Youth Group M-Fuge camp last summer in West Palm Beach,
FL. We had a team of 20 students and 5 Chaperones who traveled to Palm Beach Atlantic University
for a full week of missions service and projects. Continue to lift up those
who participated in the trip, both as missionaries and as recipients of the
ministry efforts.
