"For
we do not want you to be unaware, brethren, of our affliction
which came to us in Asia, that we were burdened excessively,
beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life; indeed,
we had the sentence of death within ourselves in order that
we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the
dead; who delivered us from so great a peril of death, and will
deliver us, He on whom we have set our hope. And He will yet
deliver us, you also joining in helping us through your prayers,
that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the
favor bestowed upon us through the prayers of many."
(NASB)

We have e-mail again! Our main computer crashed and
even though our documents were backed up within a couple
of days, our e-mail was not. It took several weeks for
our tech volunteer to find anything and what we ended
up with are addresses which are a few months old which
means several are now outdated. All this to say sorry
for it being a while since you’ve heard from us.

We want to praise God for the many opportunities He
provides for us to minister to kids. There are so many
times when the Lord has us send a postcard or makes our
paths cross with a young person who needed encouragement
or some love directed their way right at that time.
It is always so awesome to see how He brings this about
in His perfect timing. We are so thankful for the financial
support to ACTS so we can be here for them.
