Making The Living Water Their Cup Of Tea

Dear Pastors, Prayer Partners, Family & Friends,

Just as we are to enter into God’s presence with thanksgiving, we want to begin this letter by expressing how grateful we are to have so many that prayerfully support us! These past two months have been quite trying due to some family issues, as well as, learning of some new tax issues here in the UK. We know that it was your prayers that helped to sustain us. Satan is so cunning and knows how to distract, discourage, and cause us to doubt, but prayer is powerful and we have felt those prayers and have experienced God’s peace and comfort at this difficult time.

As we mentioned in our last letter, we were hoping to begin much needed repairs in the area that we are now using as our Sunday School rooms, and were waiting on quotes for the damp proofing work that needs to be done. We have finally received some quotes for the work and were quite shocked at how much it is going to cost to properly damp proof these rooms – for just the main Sunday School room alone, it is going to cost $5,000! We had recently received $1,000 from one of our churches before we even got the quotes and were so excited because we thought that the gift would more than cover the cost of the work – we were mistaken! We ask you to please pray about helping us get this work done. We could just replaster over it and save money for the time being, but it would not take care of the damp problem that we face with these old buildings, and in a short time, we would need to do it again. Our teens really appreciate the nice room that they have to meet in, and we are hoping and praying to be able to make the Sunday School rooms nice for our children as well.

Speaking of teens, we have been having over 40 teens attending our Friday outreach sessions on a weekly basis!! This is very exciting, but it has raised the problem of needing more adult help/supervision. Many of the teens that are coming to these meetings have never been to church and can be quite a handful. Please pray that God will raise up laborers for this ministry, as well as, other ministry opportunities that we would like to see happen in the future.

Kim’s parents will be arriving in Wales on May 13th! Their church, Simmons Baptist in Cabool, Missouri, graciously supplied the curriculum from their last VBS that we will be using for Junior Camp this year. Dad and Mom will be showing the leaders of the Junior Camp how Simmons Baptist used the curriculum, helping with some odd jobs around the church and our home, and, of course, catching up on enjoying their grandchildren!! We are so looking forward to their visit and getting to show them the ministry here in Llanfairfechan, as well as, some of the beauty here in North Wales!

Please pray for our children, Troy and Bethany, that are in the states; for Drew as he begins his GCSE exams on May 18th; and for us and the other missionaries here in the UK, that God will give us guidance and wisdom regarding the new tax law and how it will affect our ministries in the future.

In His Service,

Kevin & Kim Davis
