Dear Friends,
Just 2.5 more days remain for the pastors' visit in Africa.
Even though I was called home to Ohio, I can't wait to hear stories and specifics about God's work during this week's trip to the Central African Republic.
We have a wonderful team of Christian leaders and brothers on site in Bangui, and God is using them mightily.
Dave Martin, who has returned from C.A.R. this past week, sent me several wonderful pictures of our friends in Africa. Here he is (left) with Ursulla (an orphan that we sponsor through Vision Trust), and her mother.
I was touched to find out that they had arrived safely at the Grace Brethren Missions site, hoping to meet Pastor Gary. Sad that I could not meet them yet, but so thrilled that Dave and others had the opportunity.
Still in Africa? Pastors Dave Plaster, Clancy Cruise, Dan Allan, Kevin Pinkerton, R. Green, David Lawson, Dr. Sherwood Lingenfelter, Dr. Mike Yoder, and GBIM director Dave Guiles.
Still to Pray For? Continued clarity, passion, and openness between the African pastors and the American pastors as they pray and discuss needs and options for ministry. Leadership training. Supporting churches. Spreading the Good News of Jesus Christ as effectively as possible!
Still pray for the health, safety, and travel of the Pastors' team as they begin the journey home on Thursday afternoon. I hope to post updates and pictures from these guys as well, as I get them.
Thanks again for reading, praying, and staying in touch!
Sincerely in Christ,
Gary Underwood
