Dear Friend,
We have been encouraged with the following from Psalms, “If the LORD had not been my help, My soul would soon have dwelt in the abode of silence. If I should say, ‘My foot has slipped,’ Your lovingkindness, O LORD, will hold me up. When my anxious thoughts multiply within me, Your consolations delight my soul.” (Psalm 94:17-19, NASB).
1.CONTAINER ARRIVES! Praise the Lord! The container filled with Bibles, books, relief and ministry supplies arrives safely in Uganda and has cleared customs with no huge extra charges! The 20’ container was filled and sent from Seattle last October.
2.VISA APPROVED! Nelson Reed (International Director) received his visa for short ministry visit with the ACTION India Team. Nelson leaves Seattle for India February 26 and then to the Philippines for ACTION’s International Council meetings scheduled March 10 to 14.
3.MISSISSIPPI BOUND! This weekend I speak several times at Audubon Drive Bible Church in Laurel, Mississippi. Pastor Jerry Marcellino will be speaking at one of our pastors’ conterences in the Philippines November 10. We may also be able to print his book on the family.
4.MOVING ON TO MANILA! Margaret and I are scheduled to leave for the Philippines Monday March 10 at 2:30 a.m. (any volunteers to take us to the airport?)! We arrive late for the International Council meetings, but this could not be avoided. Our good friends, Mike & Rebecca Watters will arrive March 2 from Manila (with plans to serve with ACTION in Africa) and will stay at our house and care for Dad Jespersen during the two months we are in the Philippines.
“But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place. For we are a fragrance of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.” (2 Corinthians 2:14-15, NASB)
Blessings on you, dear friend.
Sincerely in Christ,
Doug Nichols
