"Prayer is the mighty engine that is to move the missionary work." A.B. Simpson

"The history of missions is the history of answered prayer." Samuel Zwemer

"People who don't believe in missions have not read the New Testament. Right from the beginning Jesus said the field is the world. The early church took Him at His word and went East, West, North and South." J. Howard Edington

"People who do not know the Lord ask why in the world we waste our lives as missionaries. They forget that they too are expending their lives ... and when the bubble has burst, they will have nothing of eternal significance to show for the years they have wasted." Nate Saint, missionary martyr

"You can give without loving. But you cannot love without giving." Amy Carmichael, missionary to India

"The mission of the church is missions" Oswald J. Smith

PRAYER REQUESTS & PRAISES

JOSH AND XI0 GARD--VILLAGE MISSIONS -- ask us to continue to pray for those looking for work in their church. They report that God is working in the lives of the people in the church and that they can see it in small ways. Please pray that Josh and Xio would be open to God's direction concerning where they need to put their time in ministry.

RANDY AND WILMA CHARLES--FUMI -- report that they are seeing increased activity in the Maricopa County Jails, with more God Squad volunteers doing Bible studies and one-on-one counseling. The ladies doing Bible studies at the Perryville women's prison are seeing ever increasing attendance. Praise the Lord!

GENE AND JEN ARNOLD--MAF -- ask us to pray for the set-up of the new maintenance school at Moody aviation where they minister. They ask us to continue praying for their adopted girls to receive their visas soon so they can go and bring them home.

MARK HANLON--COMPASSION INTERNATIONAL -- asks us to pray that the children they help will have their innocence made new and their childhood returned. Many have been abused and exploited and nearly all have had to shoulder adult burdens. Pray, too, for their protection. Pray also for the Compassion field staff as they daily put their lives on the line so more that 1.3 million children can know safety and innocence.

VINCE & GAIL TRUJILLO--MEXICAN MEDICAL MINISTRIES -- ask us to pray for the supplies and resources to completely finish the setting up of their housing in Tecate, Mexico. They ask us to pray for Chad and Bri and the safe arrival of their baby this January. They also ask continued prayer for Aaron as he continues to make progress in his recovery. We received a thank you note from Vince and Gail for the $100 Christmas gift received in December.

ED AND SHERYL GUDEMAN--WORLD VENTURE -- ask for prayer for Mark as he will not be returning to Spain with them in June. He will need a place to live and a job for the summer as he will return to Colorado State University next fall. They also sent a note thanking Trinity for the $100 they received at Christmas. They appreciate our concern and care for them.

The mission committee occasionally asks the congregation to give extra love offerings and gifts for our missionaries and various mission projects. We are so grateful for your loving response. The committee has been lax in sharing the thank you notes we have received from the missionaries. Following are a few of the thank you notes..

Michelle Beckman writes: "Thank you for loving me so well through this past year's battle with cancer. I soaked in your love, prayers and support. You truly displayed Jesus to me. Thank you for the special gift of $100 this Christmas. I will use it to help pay for some of my natural supplements.

Joyce Wilhelmson writes: "Thank you so much for your support gift in November and the Christmas gift of $100. What a delightful surprise!" Later in the letter she comments that if she buys something from the "Deep Sea Spa" kiosk she may be able to talk with the Israeli sales person ( about the Lord).

Gene and Jen Arnold write: "Thank you for all your love, support and prayers as you've stood with us faithfully over this past year. Thanks for being a blessing in our lives. We just received your Christmas gift today. Thanks so much for going over and above! "

Jim and Kay Baker write: "Thank you so much for remembering us and our ministry children with Christmas gifts of money. You folks are so faithful to us all year 10ng.....Thank you for the great knitted hats for our children. We also shared some with the children on the Navajo Nation. They were joyfully received." ( These were made and donated by the Ladies Bible Study Group.)

Randy and Wilma Charles write: "We receive your generous Christmas gift as a special blessing. Thank you so very much! We appreciate your thoughtfulness in remembering us in this way."

Glenn and Beverely Morrison write: "Just a quick note to express our gratitude for your thoughtful gift in honor of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ at the time when we celebrate His birth.

GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD, FOR HE IS GOOD;
HIS LOVE ENDURES FOREVER Psalm 106:1

ALL OF OUR MISSIONARIES: As we celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus may we each remember to pray for our missionaries, many far from home and family, that they would have a warm and Blessed Christmas.

Vince & Gail Trujillo (Mexican Medical Mission) recently wrote and thanked us once again for all of the lovely winter hats which the Trinity Bible Church Ladies are making for the Mexican folks. Those folks really do love the hats. The Mission's purpose is to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of the people in Mexico. Pray that the needed supplies will continue to be supplied so that Mexican folks will be cared for and hear about the love that Jesus has for each of them.

Southwest CBA - Serving here in the desert southwest is exciting to have some new young pastors taking up the reins in a hand full of churches; there are some ministries that have been stagnated or declining for years now fulfilling their Gospel mandate; some of the smaller congregations are increasingly excited as they see how the Lord can truly use them and the growth that comes from being open to the Lord.

Ben & Aleyamma Joseph (Campus Ambassadors) wrote that they are praising the Lord that the blood clot in Ben's left brain has totally dissolved. When he returned to the doctor recently, after a CT scan, his neurosurgeon was surprised to find the clot totally dissolved. They are so thankful to the Lord, no more medications or doctors' visits.

Jim and Kay Baker (Navajo Ministries) wrote that they are praying for houseparents for their children extended care homes. They ask that we pray for just the "right" people to come with servant hearts and fill these two positions. The two Navajo assistant ladies have moved into the homes to care for the children until new couples are found. These two ladies have worked with the Bakers for quite some time and the children love them, so they expect the transition to be rather smooth for the children and the ladies.

Michelle Beckman (STUDENT VENTURE) wrote recently that her doctor was encouraged and said that her overall blood work looked great, especially in the light of two surgeries and infection. The results of the liver test and CEA test should be back very soon. These two tests will let them know if there is cancer activity in the cells. Michelle asks that we pray that she will keep her eyes focused on the Lord during these days. She thanks us for praying for her.

UPDATES

Believer Beaten By His Brother
(The Persecuted Church)

It's hard to believe, isn't it? But, on December 27, 2011, one of Gospel for Asia's church members was badly beaten by his brother who does not know the Lord. The man's name is Heman. In 2007 he and his wife and mother all found Jesus Christ, despite all the difficulties people encounter in Asia when deciding to accept Jesus as Savior and Lord.. Danvar, Heman's brother, still practices his family's traditional religion. He has tried over and over again to convince Heman to return to Buddhism, but Heman has refused.

Early in December, 2011, Danvar drank too much alcohol and began beating Heman injuring him badly. He even attacked his own mother. After the attack Danvar went to the homes of nearby believers, verbally attacking them and their pastor, as well.

A pamphlet later appeared charging that the pastor was forcing people to convert to Christianity. In Asia, this is a felony, and many pastors are in prison for this false charge.

After these incidents occurred a Gospel for Asia pastor learned that an anti-Christian group was using Danvar to set up these charges. The village is now set against the pastor and the believers in the area.

Gospel for Asia alerted members of their ministry as to what was happening, and people began to pray for the situation, and those prayers have been answered.

On January 6 Danvar filed a case against Gospel for Asia-supported Pastor, Arman Ravvi, and the 10 elders of the church Heman attends. The court was told of the above accusations and the following day Pastor Amaan and the elders went to the police about the situation. The police could not find any authentic charges and closed the case. Hallelujah! The pastor and members of his congregation are thankful to the Lord for answering the prayers of these true believers so quickly.

Please pray for this little church, that their ministry will not suffer from all these problems. Pray also for peace in their village, for the believers to be steadfast and faithful witnesses for the Lord, and that the unbelievers' souls in the village will be awakened to the love of our blessed Savior, Jesus Christ, and become believers.

TIMOTHY AND GLORIA HAGQUIST
Serving With World Venture in the Philippines

Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell together in unity! Ps. 133:1

Tim and Gloria write that this was the sense all the paraticipants had at Bukid sa Paglaum this past fall when 20 missionary and ministry groups serving in Mindanao gathered at Hope Mountain.

The purpose was that God would be glorified through Christian organizations partnering together to gain ministry exposure, network for ministry opportunities and celebrate how God's gifts to each group benefits the Body of Christ through: Mission Mobilization, Discipleship Ministries, Cultural Arts & Products, Livelihood Projects, Vocational Training, Agricultural Products, Health Education, etc.

The 20 mission and ministry groups had booths where they presented their unique ministries. There were training seminars and demonstrations. Tribal Missions Foundation recruited and organized the mission lectures. Global Impact coordinated logistics and provided a zip-line and children's activities. A Salaam A Likum provided medical and prayer support.

This gathering was an idea that the Lord placed on Gloria's heart and they were really excited about how the Lord put all the details together.

Tim and Gloria recently spent a week in Manila for medical purposes. The small lump that was in Gloria's esophagus is gone and medication will take care of any problems. This was a concern as both Gloria's father and brother died of esophageal cancer. Tim had cataract surgery on both eyes and during the pre op physical, it was discovered that he has diabetes. Because of the early diagnosis, the diabetes is under control.

If you want to read more about their Hope Mountain Ministry and their praise and prayer concerns, please take one of their letters from the mission information rack in the narthex.

Trinity supports the Hagquists $330 monthly.

SANDY ECKELBERRY
WORLDVENTURE

Sandy Eckleberry serves in the Philippines.

A recent letter received from Sandy shared about the recent E. coli bacteria outbreak in water pipes at one of the coastal communities. The folks in this community are very poor and they are living on the shore by the ocean. Their houses are made of bamboo and raised up on stilts to help keep the house dry during high tide. It was discovered that there were leaks in the water line provided by the local government to the community and sadly they heard a few days ago that a fifth child had died.

Their mission team has been working in the community for three years and an issue that they have been addressing as part of the educational program is sanitation. However, change isn't easy and many folks still prefer to use the nearby tree grove rather than the newly installed toilet facilities. Please pray that the folks will be open to better ways of personal sanitation. Pray too for those dealing with the grief of the deaths in the community. Pray that the local government will take responsibility to fix the broken water pipes which provide the water to the community pump.

The ministry team asks that we pray that they will be able to share about the peace of Allah (God) through Isa (Jesus). The team is asking God to cause a movement of people to Himself in this community and that they will in tum become witnesses to their own communities.

Pray for other communities where the Filipino teams serve. There are four teams working in 5 communities providing pre-school, education for out of school youth, adult literacy and elementary High School equivalency, and livelihood training, such as sewing, mechanics, cell phone repair, production of coconut oil and oil products. In each training, the Word of God is shared through Bible stories. Pray for receptive hearts.

Trinity Bible Church supports Sandy Eckelberry $330.00 monthly.

Somalia's Cruel Streets
(The Persecuted Church)

Think for a moment....What would you do if your 17 year-old daughter were being held captive simply because she had decided to accept Jesus Christ as her personal savior? Would you encourage her? Would you tell her to hide her feelings about Christ? Would you ask her to disavow her faith in Christ, especially if you, yourself, were not a Christian? That's what Nurta's family did when they learned of her conversion. They asked her to recant.

Nurta endured months of torture from her family and friends, but finally escaped her family and fled to live with relatives in a different town. Unfortunately, it was in this town to which she fled that Nurta met her final fate and paid the highest price she could for her faith in Christ.

While on the street, Nurta was met by two men whom she did not recognize. They shot her at point blank range, hitting her in the chest and head. People from this town were reported to say that these gunmen were either her relatives, or acting on behalf of her family.

This activity took place in Somalia where persecution of Christians is common. Please pray that the senseless death of this child will give those Christians around her courage and strength to stand strong in their faith. Remember that very often it is women and children whose lives are at the greatest risk. Nurta's family and friends are greatly in need of prayer to come to Christ, as are the majority of the Somali people. Those that persecute are greatly in need of prayer as well. Our Lord Jesus Christ would forgive them just as readily as He forgave you and me.

We are already in the year 2012!

It seems like the years go by so rapidly, and we wonder if we are doing the things God has prepared for us to do. (Eph. 2:10) One thing we know that God wants us to do is pray for our missionaries. Your mission committee has put a book mark with the names of the missionaries we help support and the organizations we have an interest in in the bulletin. We would ask you to take this and pray daily for one or more on the missionaries named. Our missionaries often comment about the importance of prayer in their lives and ministries. If you need more information about our missionaries, we have a directory with information about them available for you. The mission information center in the narthex has their recent prayer letters also available for you to take and use. If you have any questions about either, ask one of the committee members.

We, on the mission committee, are so grateful for your interest in missions. You have been so generous in your giving for the needs of the missionaries. We were able to give each of our missionary units $100 as a Christmas gift to be used as they desire. What a blessing!! You also gave enough $20 gifts so that each of the 15 Navajo children named on the Christmas tree received a $20 gift. Thank you so much.

One of the events we are looking forward to this year is the Mission Conference which features missionaries supported by Trinity Bible Church. The dates for the conference are:

Mission Banquet on March 16 with Vince Truijillo speaking. Many of our missionaries will be attending as our guests.

On Sunday March 18, Ed and Sheryl Gudeman will be speaking at the Bible hour as well as the Sunday morning worship service. On that Sunday evening we will have Glenn Morrison and/or Randy Charles speak.

On Thursday, March 22, the new president and CEO of the Phoenix Rescue Mission, Jay A. Cory, will be our speaker at the luncheon. We are also interested in the new Women and Children facility they have recently opened. So plan to attend all the sessions to "catch up" with our special missionaries and their ministries.

JANIE SINKO
Serving with IN Network in SLOVAKIA

Greetings to all of us here at Trinity Bible Church were recently received from Janie Sinko who serves the Lord in Slovakia with IN Network. She communicated that she deeply appreciates our interest and prayers for her and her family.

Janie and Pavel visited here at Trinity about two years ago. Perhaps you might remember Janie as the missionary whom we shared a special gift with for some much needed dental work. As you may also remember, her husband Pavel Sinko also ministers in Slovakia.

Janie would appreciate continued prayer for her family. She asks that we would pray for her and Pavel to have wisdom as they raise their children. The children are in the teenage years. As we know those years can present their special issues that parents and teens need to address and work through.

Janie shared too that she is now caring for her mother. She asks for strength and patience as she takes care of her. Caring for her family, her mother and her ministry make Janie a very busy lady. Let us uphold her each day in prayer.

In her ministry Janie meets with a group of women on a regular basis. She shares that she would appreciate prayer for wisdom and guidance in how to share the Gospel, deepen their relationships and disciple each one of these beloved women. She asks for prayer for sensibility toward these dear women and for the leading of the Holy Spirit as she searches for solutions to problems in their lives.

Trinity Bible Church supports Janie Sinko $200.00 per month.

JOYCE WILHELMSON
(New Tribes Mission - Retired)

Joyce wrote in a recent letter that it has been difficult to learn to live and organize her life alone. As you may recall, Bob, her husband of 59 years went into the presence of the Lord on August 13, 2011.

She continued: " On July 3rd, I had read Bob a devotional based on James 4:6, (and other verses), "but He gives more grace...". The paragraph headings stuck in my mind: "God gives more grace than I can use," "God gives more grace than I need." "God gives more grace than I expect." and God gives more grace than I ask for." "His river of grace is for your every need, every day, every trial, every sorrow, every problem, every joy, and every service." These thoughts have been such a great encouragement to me!!"

Joyce continues to go to the mall seeking Israeli folks to witness too. She carries on the ministry she enjoyed with her beloved Bob giving out Hebrew/ English New Testaments to those who will take them.

Joyce enjoys getting out and walking, using her walker. She is thankful for friends who are willing to take her to doctor appointments and shopping.

Her current prayer requests are that she will be found faithful in all that she does. She also asks that she have a fruitful outreach to Israelis in the mall this Christmas Season. Pray too that she will be able to find rides to the mall since she doesn't drive anymore.

She sends her gratitude to us as we continue to pray and support her financially.

She signs her letter,
"Grafted in and Grateful," Joyce Wilhelmson

Trinity Bible Church supports Joyce Wilhelmson $150.00 monthly.

"GOSPEL 4 KIDS"
(Dave and Nicki Evans)

Dave and Nicki Evans have been in full-time ministry 13 years. They began their ministry with Child Evangelism Fellowship in 1998, serving with CEF for almost four years. Then in April 2002 the Evans' began Gospel 4 Kids, desiring to reach as many children as possible with the Gospel throughout Arizona. Since that time, many thousands of children have been reached with the Good News of Jesus Christ.

In a recent letter Dave shared that they knew of at least 650 children who have been counseled about receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior over these years.

The ministry is shared through partnering with churches, Christian Schools, Daycares and other children's ministries, organizations and individuals. Many of these locations the Evans' have been to several times. Now they are Asking Prayer for reaching out to new locations in Arizona.

Dave and Nicki conduct VBS Programs, Gospel Parties, Gospel Presentations and Open-Air Evangelism.

They praise the Lord that they were able to go to four new locations this past summer.

Their family news is that daughter Faith is now in kindergarten. She loves school. She has had some difficulty adjusting to being separated from her folks. They are working through this situation, please pray for wisdom for both the parents and Faith.

Dave and Nicki send their thanks for the prayers and support that helped them have a great and safe summer of ministry.

Trinity Bible Church supports the Evans' $200.00 per month.

Follow Up Ministries, International

This is an excerpt from a letter written by one of those that has been ministered to.

Ysmail writes from his Arizona prison cell:

"...I am incarcerated in a maximum security unit in Florence, Arizona. In June of 2009 I was in Tucson and a couple of guys from Follow Up Ministries visited here. I went to the two day sessions (seminar) and I began a correspondence (Bible) course. I was wondering if you still offer that same course. I have accepted Jesus as my Savior and I'm beginning the journey of a young Christian. Any lessons you can provide will be greatly appreciated. If the materials cost. please let me know and I will see what I can do."

YOU TOO CAN HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE'S LIFE.

PRAYER is often the key to spiritual victory for some struggling soul for whom Christ died. Every believer can PRAY.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT makes it possible for our God Squad staff and volunteers to go behind the walls of juvenile institutions, jails and prisons with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ, equipped to show them how to follow Christ.

BECOME INVOLVED in sharing your personal love and concern for those who are isolated from their loved ones and friends by bringing them the message of our Lord Jesus Christ.

LEARN VALUABLE INSIGHTS by participating in the next GOD SQUAD ORIENTATION Class, or you may receive the same training by correspondence through our "Outpost" program. For information call the Sun City West, Arizona office at 623-975-1734.

THANKS! - MISSIONARIES CHRISTMAS GIFTS

The total offering is $1,766.00. These funds will be divided and sent as a special gift to our supported missionaries.

Mexican Medical Ministries
Words from the President, Steve Crews

Thank you for your donation of 90 hats and baby quilt on 10/5/11. This donation will benefit our clinics and mission sites throughout Mexico to help the needy in those communities.

The purpose of Mexican Medical is to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of the people in Mexico. We operate in cooperation with several non-profit Civil Associations incorporated in Mexico. As a charitable organization, we depend on the donation of funds, general supplies, medical supplies and medical equipment from many concerned individuals, hospital supplies warehouses, organizations and church in order to effectively meet the medical and spiritual needs of the people.

As the weather begins to change and nights are getting cooler, here at the Mexican Medical warehouse our thoughts turn to stocking caps and cold medicine. Praise God over 3,000 handmade caps, crocheted and knitted by numerous volunteers have come in throughout the year. An equally large group people have contributed cold medicine. It may seem odd that these things are needed in Mexico, but there are millions of people living near the border where the weather does get cold and most houses don't have the heating systems we enjoy. So we are ready to distribute winter hats and cold medicine at our health fairs this November and December.

One of my favorite jobs at the health fairs is preparing lunch for everyone. I enjoy grilling hot dogs - not the healthiest food, I know, but very yummy, as well as quick and inexpensive, and I also serve a mean vegetable bean soup.

Thank you for your ongoing support. Please pray for us as we go out to serve and to deliver the love of Jesus. We will encounter many who need the hope of Jesus and the touch of healing.

Mexican Medical Ministries, Vince Trujillo

Vince went to San Vicente, where Mexican Medical missionaries Dave & Lynne Johnson was having a medical team. He helped with the outreach and lead in the devotions. Then it is south to San Quintin to meet with Pastor Rafael and working with the Bible School. North a week later to Ensenada and Gabriel House to meet with Ed & Jill Knox the newest Mexican Medical missionaries as they get settled in Mexico working with the children.

The Gideons Go To Malaysia

In early May, an international team of six Gideons from the U.S. and Australia traveled to Malaysia to conduct a Scripture Blitz.

While a Scripture Blitz in any country can present its share of challenges, the conditions are especially difficult in Malaysia. Because Malaysia is a mostly Islamic country, there is strong tension for Christians there.

The official religion is Islam. The law there states that if you are born a Muslim or become a Muslim, you are a Muslim for life. It is against the law in Malaysia to do anything to entice a Muslim away from their faith.

There is a need, and strong desire on the part of the Gideons to avoid drawing attention to their distribution activities in Malaysia. Confrontation with Muslims, particularly school principals, is to be avoided as well as situations which would involve the police and the media. Such attention could spoil opportunities to share God's Word with non-Muslims in Malaysia.

GOING TO THE SCHOOLS

Because of the various political and religious issues, the Gideons selected schools believed to have a higher percentage of non-Muslims. To prepare for school distribution, the team would visit the school beforehand and check the gates from which students would exit.

Five minutes prior to the students being dismissed the Gideons would set up at each gate using supermarket bags to carry Scripture in order to avoid drawing attention to themselves. They distributed the Scriptures to any non-Muslims who wanted them. As soon as distribution was complete, the Gideons would leave the area.

The Scripture was distributed at 61 schools and colleges,10 convalescent homes, 98 hospitals and medical clinics, 10 law firms and 21 hotels.

PRAYER NEEDS

Safety and strength for Christian brothers and sisters in the face of Christian persecution. Strong Christian leaders, who are grounded in Biblical truth.

Taken from the Gideons International Update.

COMPASSION

Rescuing children from poverty in Jesus' name

This is a letter from the pastor of a church that partners with the Child Survival Program that we help to support.

Greetings from Pastor Freddy Loor Mendoza and the Child Sponsorship Program and the Child Survival Program in the city of Guayaquil in the Republic of Ecuador.

"I thank God and each one of you sponsors of the Child Survival Program for the blessings that the program represents for the life of our church, Iglesia Plenitud de Dios and also our community that is located on the north side of Guayaqui.

Our church is developing a vision that is focused on service God and the community. The Compassion program fit in perfectly with our social responsibility to help adults, boys and girls with most pressing financial and spiritual needs. We serve those closest to us in a place called Mapasingue Este.

We have had the Child Survival Program for about two years, and it has had a favorable impact for 48 mothers and 45 children (0-3 yr) that are being sponsored. Many mothers and their children have been helped in the areas of health, nutrition and biweekly workshops. We have been able to save the lives of mothers and children.

In the spiritual area we have had important results; 12 of the mothers received Christ as the Savior, 6 have been baptized and are members of the church.

I say goodbye thanking you with all my heart for the effort you make to send financial resources to support this program. Thank you for making it possible for us to manifest the love of God to our neighbor and extend the work of the Lord throughout the earth."

May God continue blessing you greatly!

Sincerely,

Freddy Loor Mendoza, Pastor

 

 

PRAYER AND PRAISES

  

TIM & GLORIA HAGGUIST/SANDY ECKELBERRY, World Venture, Philippines. We just want you to know that we are safe, we continue in our ministry work as before, but we have been asked to keep a lower profile and avoid areas where problems could exist. Hope Mountain is located near a large Muslim population.

 

---

At the present time, we support the following missionaries and mission agencies, as they proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the unsaved, and to those who have never heard the message of Salvation, both at home and abroad.
