Merry Christmas
<<First Name>>!
What a great year it has been here in Australia. I don't think there is any way we could possibly let you know how much you have all blessed us this past year. From our family to yours,
THANK YOU!
The Best Christmas Presents
Of all the things we could have received for Christmas this year, the results of your prayers and financial support are better than anything. We are so excited to share with you that in the last two weeks we have had two people accept Christ in baptism! These are the same two mentioned in previous prayer requests that you all have been praying for.
When we pray, God works.

A New Year
Time goes by so fast it is hard to believe we are into our second year of ministry here. Lord willing, I will complete my Master degree this August. And on top of all of that, Josiah is starting school at the end of January. This will be a bit change for our day to day family routine. Please be in prayer for Josiah and our family as we transition to this new stage in life.
We have some great ministry plans for this upcoming year including a Family Camp weekend, improving our Youth Ministry, and a new cafe ministry. We are even discussing the possibility of creating some kind of Karate Club as a community youth outreach.
Also, we have had the interest of numerous Bible College students to come and do their internships here in Australia so this will be an ongoing process to determine when and if they will be able to come.
Christmas Pressies
Many of you have taken the time to write, send cards, give financial gifts, and more this holiday season. We can't say thank you enough for you love and support. It may seem like a small thing, but a simple Christmas card means a lot when you are away from home and family during the holidays.
A special thank you to our supporting Churches who have been extra generous in supporting us!
One big ticket item we are praying for from you is to consider giving a special gift to support our upcoming school expenses. We are blessed to be able to send Josiah to a better school at a cheaper rate than the local public primary school. This is a huge blessing, but even so, it is not without its cost. Uniforms alone will cost a few hundred dollars. Please prayerfully consider an extra gift during the month of January.
