We use the word love so flippantly. Sometimes I wonder if we grasp the true meaning of love. We know the greatest display of love occurred when Christ gave his life on the cross of Calvary. John 15:13 states, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” Today, more than ever, I am glad that Jesus loves me! This I know.

One way we show our gratitude to the Savior is by sharing our love with others in need. I humbly thank those who have given to the relief efforts in Haiti. We have heard from all of our missionaries, including Jerome Mombien. We ask that you continue to pray for Jerome and his family. They have not made contact with his oldest son, Joshua. He was in school during the quake with many other students. So far, none of those students have been accounted for. Yet, through this great tragedy, Jerome is praising God for the opportunity to share Christ with those who survived. He was living by Romans 8:28 that, “all things work together for good.” We are currently accepting donations for Haiti Relief as we continue to receive the damage reports from our missionaries. We know in the near future there will be massive rebuilding efforts for schools, orphanages and churches that have been destroyed. I assure you that 100% of your giving will go to help these efforts. We have never withheld any administrative costs for our missions projects. As the cleanup and rebuilding continues we will send out updates. You will notice in the pictures below and reports on television, the devastation is massive, but our God is able to turn this tragedy into triumph through our love and support. Remember what Christ said in Matthew 25:40, “…Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”

We also want to show our appreciation by extending an invitation to receive a copy of this month’s free gift offer. “The Gospel Nutshell” is a devotional/journal written by our dear friend, Jeffrey Miller. Jeffrey is one of our volunteer associates and is currently pasturing the Scioto Baptist Church in Lucasville, OH. He is working on his PhD in biblical studies and also currently teaches at Ohio Christian University. We were extremely honored to produce this book for Jeffrey, and we are also proud of his passion to reach the lost and encourage the saints. “The Gospel Nutshell” is available by clicking here and filling out the form. Again, this book is free of charge and I know you will be blessed when reading this anointed work.

We would love for you to come and be with us in some special meetings in the month of February. Below you will find some graphics for the Come Alive Spring Camp Meeting and the Smoky Mountain Camp Meeting. Do your best to make your plans now for these powerful services. This month we will be privileged to be in revivals from Greenfield, OH to Cincinnati, OH. The details for these meetings are listed below.

By His Love,
