Hello! Our friends Eric and Shelea Mollerstuen told us about you guys and showed us a couple of your videos in Thailand. We just moved to Chiang Mai with Pioneers to start a media team that brings the stories from SE Asia to the folks in sending countries who should be praying, giving, or going. I’d love to connect with you guys about what you’re doing. Email us if you have the time! Thanks!

Dayn and Mandi Arnold

Hey Vernon family! I know you don’t know me well but Laurie and I swapped for a bit after she guest posted on Adriel’s blog a while back — anyway, I just wanted to say I really enjoyed your update…makes me a little jealous as we’re back in Australia now, not in China where we want to be. But I really appreciate the great joy you obviously have in your kids and their well-being (spiritually and physically)! IT’s so wonderful to hear. Keep up the awesome work!

Water and light. Could there be two more appropriate avenues for bringing the gospel into peoples’ lives? I’m hoping we can help with the light part! Love you guys and the work you’re doing!

Thanks everyone! We certainly enjoyed it, and we are especially grateful for Chuck, Sherry, Julia and Joy who joined us to take all these wonderful photos. They are some of our favorite missionaries – you can read more about them at http://quinley.com

It is thrilling to see the joy on these precious faces! I love picturing these families getting healthier in body due to the gift of these 12 water purifiers, and getting healthy in spirit as they learn of our generous Savior’s great gift of salvation. Thanks for all you are doing for the Akha and for our Lord. It so blesses my heart to see every single picture.

Macdonald,

We are not a missions sending agency, but we would love to encourage you as you go through the process of becoming a missionary. We suggest you find a local sending agency if your church cannot provide all the missionary support you need to provide training, counsel and guidance as you serve the local church globally.

We also suggest that you begin seeking God in prayer for what country you would like to serve in. He’s going to continue to lead you in this process.

The church has said its ok if i have Gods calling in my life in that area . I live in South Africa and i fellowship at faithways bible church in Soweto.God Has prepared me in the past few years for His work in prayer and reading of His word in the wilderness iam strong in His grace.Paul you asked me about a few things Patience,giving ,serving God Has put me through situations that i may learn to be patient in whatever the situatin i find myself in as well as waiting for this calling for the right time and have, served Gods people and others in different areas as Christ came to serve mankind not the opposite been taught in that area to be of service to mankind.

Giving is the most important part of the word of God and love.He gave His only begotten Son to die for us and serve us.I would rather not have and give to the needie.I feel strongly about this my brother.I dont really have a specific country at heart at the moment but will go anywhere in the world where there is a need unless you insist on a specific country, thank you Paul for everything

Wonderful! Where are you hoping to serve? Is your local church supportive of your decision?
