Encouragement in Turkey









(The Blue Mosque in Istanbul)
We have just returned from a week long retreat in Turkey with the PAOC (Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada) missionaries from around Eurasia. How exciting it was to hear about what God is doing in soo many parts of the world!!! However, the connections and new friends we were able to make was the highlight of it all. We were very encouraged through all the sessions and relationships that helped renew our passion to reach the nations for Christ. We were so blessed to have been invited to be a part of this wonderful group of people walking along the same kind of journey as us!

Tomorrow we leave for Ukraine to celebrate with the body of Christ there. The church plants are celebrating their graduation from the partnership with NLI and we ask for your prayers for these churches for sustainability and strength as they continue to grow and bear fruit in Jesus’ name. It will be such a privilege for me particularly to be a part of this celebration and see the hearts of these wonderful people first hand. Look forward to letting you all know how it goes!
