Dear friends,
Hello again in the wonderful name of Jesus!  Thank you for taking time to read our letters. We deeply appreciate your friendship!

Writing and publishing...
In the past, we have asked for prayer several times for the ministry of writing and publishing, especially concerning the foundations we teach under the heading of Blood Covenant.  I (John) stopped asking for prayer for this, feeling I was too slow and not getting anything done.  Well, maybe it is MORE PRAYER that will make the difference!

The writing and publishing vision has grown to include various small and medium size publications, especially to be translated in languages of people in parts of the world where there is much less access to the gospel.  We are not wanting to just add more words where there is plenty of written word available, but to teach and send the Word where little exists.

When you see a believer in a far away place take a booklet concerning Jesus in his or her hands for the first time, a person who has never had anything about God to read, and watch them hold it like it is solid gold, tears come to their eyes and yours.

Of course, many in the world have not yet even seen or read a  Bible!  How many Bibles are on your shelf?  How many Christian books do you have at your fingertips?

We want to do our part to help those who come to Christ to know the SUBSTANCE of their powerful salvation in the blood of Jesus!

We need your help to see this part of our ministry fulfilled.  It may be the more important work of our lives.  It requires time in the secret place -- with the Lord, with the keyboard, and with each other.  I write, Jackie edits.  It is teamwork.  If I write with strong anointing, she has less editing to do.  So now you know what to pray for!

We are looking at this year as the time to breakthrough and establish the writing and publishing ministry.  Perhaps travel will be restricted to get this done.

Will you continue to support us with your prayer and giving, or help in a new way?  We need huge breakthroughs on both levels.   Our financial support tends to be better when we travel more.  We believe God will provide even if we stay home more at times to do this writing and publishing. Thank you for your partnership with us!

We count it a privilege to pray for your prayer requests.  Please email us your prayer needs!

Remember: one word from God is more powerful than any problem you have.  Read about Him, meditate on Him, talk to Him, listen to Him and wait on Him.  Then do what He says.

With love,
John and Jackie
