Dear Fellow Laborers-
“For this God is our God forever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.”
Psalm 48:14
Greetings in the name of our wonderful Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! We are so blessed to be in the service of the King of kings and Lord of lords! We pray this letter finds you in the center of God’s will and enjoying His blessings.
It has been a busy time for us these past few weeks. We finished up our last few meetings, and are very happy to report that we added three new supporting churches, and are now fully supported! Praise the Lord! Deputation has been a wonderful experience for our family, and we will miss the close times of travelling together. We are also thankful for a reprieve before the big move.
We recently moved into a missions apartment built into the basement of our good friends, at their offer, to save money before we move to Africa. What a blessing they are! It has taken us a while to settle in, as we moved on the 3rd. That is why this letter is a bit delayed. Please accept our apologies, as we were organizing.
I will be taking a trip to South Africa this month on the 23nd. I will be travelling with Bro. Chris Radebaugh, and getting an idea of how he runs his ministry. He is a missionary to the Deaf in Johannesburg South Africa, with an established church, and in the beginning stages of establishing his Bible Institute. It will be a great time of learning for me, and also planning. The Lord is beginning to work in a specific way, and I covet your prayers as we seek His will.
What a blessing that last Sunday morning my wife was able to counsel a 16 year old Deaf girl who was interested in salvation, and she received Christ as her personal Savior! One of the first things she said afterwards was “I want to tell my family about Jesus.” Please pray for Tiffany that she will grow in the Lord, and have boldness to share with her hearing family about the Lord.
Please also continue to pray for wisdom as we prepare for departure. Our tentative plans right now are to leave in June. There are a lot of details to figure out, paperwork to file, and preparation to pack. We appreciate all you have done in supporting us financially and through prayer. God is definitely hearing, and directing our steps. Praise Him for His wonderful goodness!
Sincerely in Christ,
Jimmy Tsoukalas
