Since its inception Fairhaven Baptist Church has provided a caring outreach to the special needs members of the surrounding communities. Without a doubt the highlight of this "Shepherds" ministry is the annual camp week. Several dedicated church volunteers work together to make these weeks memorable. Activities included daily Bible challenges, games, bowling competition, crafts, singing competition, and a puppet show, just to name a few.
We started our missions program Grace to the Regions Beyond, for the purpose of taking the gospel to the Democratic Republic of Congo. Traveling to Congo always took us through the country of Burundi. We did not know much about this small country that sits south of Rwanda and east of Congo.

We once again want to thank you for your faithful support and prayers for us as we labor for our Lord. It's a great time to serve the Lord and we have had some great meetings on our furlough time in the States. We have had opportunities to go out witnessing at some of our churches, which has been a real blessing. The work has been sown and God will give the increase.

What a wonderful God we serve. God not only saves us but He helps us every step of the way. As I talk with folks about the Lord - many have decided to ignore all the promises of God. They want to do it their way. But praise God for the few that accepted His Mercy and Grace by Faith. To continue reading the update from Herb Curriden, please click the link below. Herb Curriden
It was in November, after returing from pastoring in Grand Cayman Island, that I prayed about going to Germany in May for the BIMI Missionary Field Conference. Things didn't look very promising and I asked the Lord again in January and February, but it still looked like the Lord had other plans for us. After the Wednesday evening church service on April 11, Linda said, "Look here, there is a ship re-positioning from Tampa to Rotterdam (last minute price of $349), and it's leaving this Sunday the 14th."

Psalm 111:2 The works of the LORD are great, sought out of all them that have pleasure therein. God's work is evident around us. We truly are undeserving of His blessings.

FAMILY CONFERENCE People speak different languages, eat different foods and have different cultures, but when getting past those differences one thing remains the same; people are people and we all have the same concerns and problems. In Kenya, as it is all over the world, the family is under attack and the need for biblical answers is great. For some time we have been burdened to begin a family conference in order to better strengthen our families. To continue reading the update from Robert Mickey, please click the link below.

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us" (Ephesians 3:20).

50,000 Russian John & Romans completed during Teen Mania. Ten years ago Pastor Joson Brenenstuhl and Pastor Josh Stertz started Teen Mania, hosted by Wyldewood Baptist Church. Under the direction of Josh Stertz, this outreach continued to grow until Wyldewood did not have a large enough facility to accommodate the teens and their activities. Thus it was moved to Northland Camp and Conference Center in Dunbar, Wisconsin. To continue reading the update from Couriers for Christ please click the link below. Couriers for Christ
