Prayer Letter & The Cast Net - December 2024

Dear Friends:
This reporting will wind up 2024 Fishing News. It has been a year of ups and downs and changes, personally, nationally and world-wide, but nothing has come that surprised our Lord. It is so wonderful to be able to rest in knowing that fact. FOMMI continues to make daily radio broadcasts available to stations, internet and podcasts. All twenty-one “fishy” tracts have been reprinted. A new book, “More Nautical Notes”, which contains short “fishy” devotionals that were the last writings of Fisher-Mund, is now being printed. Although I have proofed publications for many years, I just could not seem to get to an end of the “typos” in this book, so finally released it to the printer. (Guess that is a sign of old age!) 🙂 “Anchors of the Faith” continues to be used particularly in jail/prison settings. Here is an unsolicited testimony from an inmate of Escambia County Jail, Pensacola, Florida, received in late November. “My Anchors of the Faith worksheets have been completed. I have thoroughly enjoyed the study….there are many vital points I feel I need to work on personally…Thank you for your ministry and all your efforts made here. The hope you bring is worth so much to me and is what gets me through these very long days.”
I extend my thanks to each of you who continue to support this ministry in prayer and finances. I understand that there are many worthy ministry opportunities out there for churches and individuals to support. Most of the individual supporters and church supporters of FOMMI have been long-time friends. Occasionally there are circumstances that cause a church to end support. In November I received a letter from a young pastor saying that was the case. I just wanted you to know that these things are in the hands of the Lord and I thank and bless the Lord for all His blessings through each of you and I do not take that for granted. Support or no support does not diminish my regard for each of you.
Speaking of support, this is just a reminder that if you have a contribution to FOMMI that you want to be recognized in 2024 for tax deduction reasons, it must be IN OUR OFFICE no later than Tuesday, December 31. Otherwise it may be attributed to 2025 totals and not useable for 2024 purposes. (Timely delivery of USPS mail is not so certain these days.)
I did not seek an update from Bro. Jeph in the Philippines, Bro. Varghese in India, or Bro. Lemon in Bangladesh at this time. I will update you in the February newsletter. Just to let you know that all eyes around the world are on the USA, about 2 am on Election Night Bro. Jeph texted me about the election result! (I texted him I was trying to sleep!)
1 Thessalonians 5:18, “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you”.
Merry Christmas,
