SHORT UPDATE and PRAYER REQUESTS:
SPECIAL THANKS:
Your prayers have been heard and the Lord is truly helping Cornelius at nursery school. Things are going much better now and he has been placed in a group with two teachers that have been very good for him. PTL
NEED OF THE HOUR:
Ministry is going well, but as you can tell from our latest newsletter there is much going on and we really sense the need for more laborers to be sent into the harvest. So much more could be done if only there were more missionaries willing to dedicate part of their lives to serve Jesus in Italy.
An ongoing prayer of ours has been that which Jesus commanded His disciples. "pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest." -- Matthew 9:38
In Matthew 9:36-37 we read: "When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few."
Countless lost souls surround us, but the laborers are currently very few. It seems a regular thing nowadays that we get reports of more missionaries (with other agencies) that are returning to the US. Very sad.
As others are departing, however, we are giving thanks to the Lord for the 5 churches/groups currently discussing and praying seriously to come serve on a short-term PMc Cohort in 2020. This is a huge answer to prayer!
Perhaps it's time for a new wave of missionaries!
ON THAT NOTE:
Will you please join us in seriously praying and beseeching Jesus to send full-time missionaries into this harvest with PMc for 2 or 4-year terms?
Would you please consider forwarding this email and need to people you know that may be interested and willing to dedicate part of their lives to serve the Lord's church in Italy?
