Summer Missions 2009


Summer Missions


UK

“Love Ashford”, Kent England   
  
  
It was great to be back in Ashford , Kent with our son, Josh and our daughter Rachel and our granddaughter Kyla. For the second year we were the guests of Pastor’s David and Joyce Lamb of Ashford Christian Fellowship, the church we founded in 1975. They have faithfully led the work there since 1999 and it has produced some great fruit, touching many nations with the Gospel. Some of those now helping had come to Christ in the Cultural Extravaganza of 2008! Our immediate cross cultural team consisted of Ellie from Michigan , Rachel and Kyla Martinez from North Carolina , Steve Mac from North Wales, Paul (Egyptian) and Venus (Iraqi) from Church on the Way, California The weather was again glorious – thank you Lord and all the prayer partners. After many meetings, public school ministry and 16 hours street evangelism, thousands heard the Gospel message;   over a hundred received Christ and more were filled with the Holy Spirit. The annual “Cultural Extravaganza” dre
w 4,000 people this year. 
Rachel and Josh both performed their songs along with an array of ethnic music and dance from many countries in Africa and Asia . Josh had a great time in the evening performing his music for many of his old friends. 

The need of the hour in the Western Church is evangelism and we love to see churches mobilized to do just that.
