Dear Friends and Family Members,
It is with a heavy heart that Melanie and I inform you that we have chosen to postpone our return trip to Liberia by 3 months due to the ebola outbreak in our hometown.  Please join with us in praying for the Liberian people.  Yesterday, Liberia shut down most of it’s boarders in hopes of containing and eliminating ebola.  In our hometown, several people have been diagnosed with ebola, the clinic directly next to our house has been exposed to ebola and has shut down, and the community hospital has shut down.  Throughout Liberia other hospitals are shutting down due to a large number of health professionals refusing to come to work in fear of being exposed the virus.  One clinic in Monrovia has been burned after an ebola patient died and a family member retaliated.  The situation is very serious and needs our prayers. 

Kim working working on the press

Kim (our mission partner) has decided to stay and minister in the midst of the storm.  He has prepared an ebola packet which he is now printing by the thousands on our printing presses.  The first 2 pages of the packet talk about ebola and prevention. The last few pages talk about repentance and salvation.  Our field leaders have been trained in how to use these packet and are beginning to go to every town presenting the information on Ebola and the Gospel to every citizen.  We will continue sending these mission trips out until the virus has passed.  Please keep our team in your prayers.  Please pray that this virus will be contained and eliminated.  Please pray for the Gospel as it continues to go out. Please pray for those who are suffering!
God Bess!
