Hi from Felix and Smiley!

Dear Bros and Sisters,
What a joy it is for us to have the disciples from the Detroit region visit us.Ben preached a powerful and a convicting message on faith & deeds and how to have a serving heart, in the 12 th year anniversary service. Dammon did an incredible lesson about how to be an approachable leader for our disciples. Doureen shared about her life, which really convicted all of us to have a higher standerd of righteousness and not to grumble about the pain and the sickness we go through. We are so convicted about their sacrifice and their love for all of us. God blessed us to have 160 visitors for the anniversary service. Thank u for all your sacrifice and prayers. We love you all.

Felix.

Hi to all in India
It's inspiring and convicting to hear how hard you're working. The Indian brothers and sisters do set a great example, and are super-loving. Felix and Smiley are a great couple, as are the rest of the staff there. Keep up the great work. Greg Moots

OOooo Felix and Smiley!
It's so good to hear from Felix and Smiley!! Yay! It sounds like God is really working in your part of the world! Ben- We are home from the UP. I'm a bit lonely, but Mom is coming on Thurs so it'll be OK. Ev went in Stella Lake "swimming" for the 1st time yesterday. He just sat in the sand (shallow water) and tried to eat the rocks! Have fun at the Riviera Suites!! (Remember how our bedroom window would shake in the wind??) Love you! Jen

Wonderful experience
I can't tell all of you how encouraging it is to be able to take this journey with you, not in body but in spirit. I hope to be able to go on a journey like that in the not too distant future when the kids get a little older. Make special note of all that you see and do there, we want to hear all of it when you return. To our brothers and sisters in India: I regret that I may not have the opportunity to meet some or all of you this side of heaven, but know that I am with you in spirit. Your love for our friends is truly inspiring, and your acts of service and perseverance are very convicting. We have heard such wonderful stories of your generosity and kindness. Our mission team has come to encourage you, but it is you that have encouraged them. That is so like God, isn't it? You give a little of your time and money to honor God, and he blesses you ten times as much in return. Thank you all for the experiences you have shared with our missionaries. We will treasure the stories we hear when they return. I pray that one day I will be able to thank you in person for the ways which you have inspired me. May Christ's love surround you and keep you. Your brother in Christ, Brian
