The scriptures tell us in Romans 10:15 "How sweet are the feet of those who bring Good News", but I can tell you how sweet it is to work with this group of Good News bringers. It is an absolute blessing to work with brothers and sisters who love each other, love the Lord first and foremost, and live in peace with one another.
Tj and Holly are doing an amazing job with the young people who, up until they got them involved in wonderful instruction and Christ directed activities, spent most of their time wandering the streets and getting into trouble. God has blessed both TJ and Holly with talents and abilities that they are using to tell Rio San Juan that God has not abandoned us, but that he longs for us to be reunited with Him.
Cory and Laura Beth are going at it full tilt with the children in the Children's Homes. It is now much better organised and the children are so happy and love them both. They have gotten many of the kids from the neighborhood, Caraqueño, involved in studies and activities. They are truly an answer to prayers and such a wonderful blessing and addition to the mission team.
Norm Curington has already set me up with some amazing contacts that will help us in the teaching and discipling area of the work; and he's also in the process of getting things rolling for the purchase of the property for the new Outreach Center. It is such a blessing to have Norm as a brother in the Lord who is passionate about the work and has lifted such a responsibility off me and frees me up to do more one on one time with the folks in the community.
The Bynums are getting their feet firmly planted and are a great help. Tim's ability with Spanish and his teaching have been a very welcome blessing. Lisa is a great cook and quick to share with all of us. I hope the growth with the team is spiritual and not just around our girth as a result of her talent!! Lindsey and Ethan have settled in well and have started back with their home schooling responsibilities. They both have numerous skills and are helping us in many ways with Bible classes, computer diagnostics and manual labor.
I told you it was a blessing. Am I right or what? Thank you God.

Brian, me AGAIN! Really enjoyed reading about all the good works that are happening in the D.R.
I cried, when I read your last paragraph and saw you and Tammie's picture. Hope I'm not being too emotional for a blog site. Bill and I keep you, Tammie, your children and all the good works that you all do in our daily prayers. Please pray for us.
