Thank you for praying for our family. Here's our monthly report on what we've been doing, during our time on home ministries.
Since returning to the States last June, we've visited 26 churches and spoken with many people about our work in Belgium. In February, I'll be attending the Ministers and Mates Conference in California to meet with pastors. We are very grateful to Dr. Stephen Babby, district superintendent of the Pacific Southwest District, for making this possible.
I have also been working very hard writing a paper that will be published in a book about influential postmodern philosophers. The article has been accepted, and I will doing a final edit sometime next month. We believe that God is calling us to help pastors and church leaders all over the world to understand and come to grips with our changing postmodern culture, and we're happy to see that the academic side of our work continues to prosper.
Please pray that our Faith Promise gap will begin to close. We have seen God do marvelous things during our 14 years of missionary service, so we have confidence that the One who calls provides. And we need God to do that again! We currently need to raise $38,881 in additional Faith Promise.
Thank you for praying for Matthew. He is doing much better, although the muscles around his stomach still cramp occasionally. We still don't know what the source of his problems is, but he's able to go to school again.
Warmly,
Phil (and Becky)
