Dear Friends,

     In Proverbs 18:24 we find, “A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.”  Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought or sold, but its value is far greater than a mountain made of gold. I am so thankful that God has given me so many friends like you who care, listen, understand, comfort, and reach out a helping hand. I heard from many of you as the date of Fisher-Mund’s final flight rolled around on September 2, reminding me that you still listen to the broadcasts via radio stations, internet and podcasts and they continue to bless you. God has continued to prove Himself faithful to me over the last two years, even as the Word declares in Psalm 147:3, “He health the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.”
     Pastor Varghese in India reports the Bible school is functioning well. Concerning the students he writes, “We see their enthusiasm and zeal for God even from the beginning of the training period.” The students do door-to-door evangelism as well as personal (one-on-one) evangelism, travelling to interior villages and conducting small group Bible studies. FOMMI has provided additional funds for the purchase of a motorbike to help in their travels. He asks prayer for Christians in Manipur and other parts of India where they are suffering persecution causing many to be homeless, resulting in poor living conditions that produce health issues like typhoid.
     Pastor Jeph in the Philippines reports they have endured several typhoons (like our hurricanes) recently, but no direct hits or lasting damage. Bible school training there is continuing. I believe he said he had 8 students at this time (I have misplaced his correspondence).
    Pastor Lemon in Bangladesh also reports times of trouble as that country nears an election. River pirates are using the instability cause by the political turmoil as a means to extend their robbery in areas near Pastor Lemon. Pray for their safety.  In September the purchase of a portion of the additional property was completed. It had six owners, so was quite an ordeal to complete. The rest of the property is still being processed for purchase.  In the July-August 2023 Fishing News I reported that a fisherman who was also a river church pastor was eaten by a crocodile as he and his wife fished for their living. While the fisherman WAS eaten by a crocodile as he and his wife fished, he WAS NOT a river church pastor, and perhaps not even a Christian. Sorry for the error.  Many of you have given to various projects/outreaches that are ongoing there, and those designations have been honored and used for the specified projects. However, it is getting more and more difficult to keep the designations separated from general support as it goes from receipting in the USA, then wiring to Bangladesh, and applying there. Please continue to support this needy work, but unless you are giving an exceptionally large amount for one project, please allow your donations to be used at Pastor Lemon’s discretion for the greatest need there. I am happy to discuss this further with any donor.            
 
Thankful for you,
