Dear Friends,

          The short furlough that my wife and I took at the end of October and the beginning of November was refreshing. We reconnected with the churches that we visited as well as making some new friends. It was successful in the sense that there were souls saved and several rededications. I had the opportunity to preach in the churches and to present Belgium, in all the churches that we visited. For the last twenty years or so Jean has stayed home to take care of the kids. We have an empty nest now and she traveled with me. I was really glad that we could travel together. Prayerfully, the promises and intentions that were stated for new support will come through. It is a necessary part of mission work that we try to pick up new support. The shrinking value of the dollar and the rise in the cost of living pinches in on us to the point that we are hurting financially. I am grateful to the churches that give sacrificially so that we might continue to minister in Belgium.

Usually I ask people to prepare ahead of time so that I have a few ready to give a testimony. This year I told them that I was not going to ask them personally. The response was amazing. People were giving testimonies all over the place and mostly without prompting or pleading to participate in the program. It was like popcorn. This was a first for our people I normally beg and plead with them to participate. We had several visitors and they participated in the services.

          I have a lot of prayer requests for this letter. Pray for Alita, Elonga and Alina, they need to be saved. Pray for our Christmas service Dec 23. Then the 30th we are planning a down day to just relax have services but the in the afternoon we are going to play games and fellowship.. We have invited the neighborhood. I have encouraged our people to do the same. Pray for the exchange rate. The dollar is up and down, but it is down more than it is up.

Thank you!
