Dear Friends:
Well, the miles are
racking up. Our travels have taken us all around the middle of
America so far. We have reported to churches and visited friends
and family as we keep the highway hot! We thank the Lord as He
has blessed us with protection on the roads.
One of the highlights
of these past two months was my visit to the Indian Baptist
Mission Camp. Bro. Ed Bausell invited me to come and have time
with other Indians from across America as they met in
Oklahoma for family camp. I gathered up my bedroll and drove
down. It was really hot that week, but thankfully the dorms were
air-conditioned. Gail had sent me with a warm comforter which I
thought I would never need; however, after I had chosen my
bunk I realized that I was right below the air vent! Boy was I
glad for the warmth provided by the comforter!
The week was filled
with wonderful preaching and singing and I so enjoyed seeing and
hearing what God is doing among Native Americans. To feel their
heart for Christ and for others was a real blessing to me.
They also enjoyed this “Apple Indian” as I was allowed to
share with them about our ministry in England. What is an “Apple
Indian”? One that is red on the outside, but white on the
inside! This October I am scheduled to go to the Seminole Indian
Reservation in Florida with Bro. Arlen Payne. Pray that God will
be able to use me to be a challenge to the Native Americans.
They are a wonderful people with much to give. May God call more
of them to Christ and to His service.
Yours in His Service,
Tom and Gail Gritts
