Prayer Letter & The Cast Net - April 2023
LINK TO THE CAST NET PUBLICATION AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE
Dear Friends,
Psalm 107 was a favorite of Fisher-Mund, especially verses 23 and 24. I want you to see verse 8, which is also repeated in verses 21 and 31, “Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!”
On the date of the last prayer letter, the mission trip to Bangladesh was begun. As was stated, the trip was not a vacation, but was, indeed, a tremendous blessing to the participants. My pastor’s luggage was lost, but was found on the homeward bound phase. Thankfully he had necessities in his carryon which saw him through. The long trip getting there and back, combined with all the activity while there, made some weary men arriving home. Needless to say, their lives were forever affected by that trip. If you can ever personally come to the office of FOMMI in south Alabama, I will show you pictures of that trip and tell you about their experiences.
Bro. Lemon has many outreaches in Bangladesh that produce many needs. Along with evangelizing, he helps provide clean drinking water through tanks to catch rain water ($180 each), cows to families to supply food and income source ($450 each), bicycles to aid in evangelizing ($100 each), boats and nets for fishermen ($450 each). The Bible school was begun on March 17 which increased operational needs. If you would like to fill any of these needs, just note on your check what you are sending it for, and I will see that it goes for that need.
Graduation for the six Bible students in India is even now occurring. They have been faithful in evangelizing during their time as students, even when it was dangerous. That Bible school is praying for a 12-seater van to use in evangelizing. Help them pray for that and give towards its purchase if the Lord leads you.
Bro. Jeph from the Philippines was among the men on the Bangladesh trip. He was a blessing to all who met him. Fishers of Men Baptist Church in San Fernando City, La Union continues to be a stable base for evangelization.
Recently I have heard from a radio listener in Barbados saying the broadcasts are a blessing. Fundamental Broadcasting Network reports that the daily listening countries and locations around the world continue to increase. The last total was 237. Remember the daily broadcasts can be heard via Podcasts if you are not near a radio station carrying them. You can also hear them by going to the website.
On a personal note I have been having some tests run on the advise of my family doctor. I failed a stress test so moved on to a heart cath, which was perfect. These were done because some of my brothers and sisters have had heart attacks or strokes. I will see soon if that ends the need for tests.
Thank you for your prayers and financial support. Those are necessary to the foundation of FOMMI.
Until next time,
