I just want to thank you for starting and continuing this ministry
for the Kurdish people! I have loved and thoroughly enjoyed coming
on these trips and making new friends and being able to share
my testimony with people. What I want to tell all of you is how
I have been feeling towards the Kurdish guys and what I am thinking
about now. When I came back from Nashville, I had this pain in
my heart whenever I thought about the Kurdish guys, but mainly
when I thought about Hawar, Maky, and Gudar. It would be a deep
pain and it would last for several minutes. God was really trying
to tell me something about them.
I went to a Bible camp in Pennsylvania this
last week and I got even more close to God there. One of the speakers
there, Ron Blue, was so excited for the youth that it encouraged
me to grow in God and be like Him. During one of his sermons,
he talked about this missionary who was captured and eventually
was killed. Ron Blue found a note that this man wrote before he
was captured and it said something along the lines that the country
he was in needed a martyr and he was willing to be that person.
Ron asked us to come to the front if we wanted to give our life
to full-time missions. I didn't hear what he said at the time,
but I just felt the Holy Spirit pushing me to go up front. And
I did.
I wanted to let all of you know what God has
done in my life this summer. And I want to thank you for challenging
me in my spiritual walk during Nashville and for helping me overcome
some of my problems. I am definetely looking forward to the TWO
week trip next year and I am so excited to see what God is going
to do over the next year with your ministry. Thank you so much
again and God bless!
