​Our Family Worship had a great event in one of the young children becoming baptized! 
Ted and Denise Pulfer completed the adoption of there newest family member and his name is Aaron!  Aaron was welcomed into God’s family on June 9 through Baptism!
Aaron is adopted twice!  Ted and Denise adopted Aaron to be joined with their physical family.  They brought Aaron to be joined with (adopted into) God’s family—his spiritual rebirth!
Many of our families are learning about Baptism and we pray we will soon have 3 more Baptisms (and prayerfully more)!  Please join us in praying for these families and children as we share with  them His Great News.  Also as we share the joys and promises God gives us through Baptism. 
If you see in the picture—we use a coffin??!  This is a great picture as Paul says we are buried with Christ and raised to new life.  No, we do not use the coffin for the Baptism (but I think would be a great picture) because I am afraid it would upset parents. 
But we show how we want to make death “nice” and we do not like to think about death.  But because we are Born again — Born from Above, we do not need to be afraid of death.  Death is not beautiful  When Jesus died it was ugly.  But because He died, our sins are buried with Him, we have new life, and the promise of life forever!
Please join us in praying for Aaron, his brother Ben, plus Ted and Denise.  Please pray for all the other children and their families that God will guide them to be joined with His family through Baptism. 
Thank you for your support for our work together in His Kingdom.  We want to see ALL people joined with His family and have His promise of Life Eternal! 
 

​Deaf people are asking for training!  Not only here in the United States; but also in other countries!   
We are planning trips to Liberia, India and Australia  to help train others to bring deaf people to see Jesus. 
We will not only be training with the Deaf people; but also with hearing Pastors and others involved with Deaf Ministry.  We want to equip as many people as possible to share the Great News about Jesus with Deaf people in every country!
Liberia and India will be with new groups of Deaf people who want to become trained and equipped to become leaders and prayerfully in the future Pastors and Deaconesses.
In Australia we will be working with the ONE Deaf Lutheran Pastor to introduce him to the training materials, practice with his Deaf people, and work with preparing future Pastors working with the Deaf people.  We have also been invited to a nationwide gathering of deaf events to show others about the ABCD training materials. 
Our goal is to raise $5000 for each person going.  This will cover airfare, visa, etc…  Plus we want to purchase Bibles and other study materials to bring with us.  Any funds we bring with us that are not needed for food, lodging, and travel in the country are giving to the Deaf people for the printing/copying of the materials.  This way they can continue the training of more Deaf people and Leaders. 
We must raise all our own funding for these overseas possibilities.  Please pray and share this with others and ask them to support Outreach in His Kingdom.  We trust is God wants us to go He will provide the funds.
