Sep. 9th

Praise God, and greetings and salutations in the name of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus,

We have had such a blessed summer, now the summer is gone and we are hard at work preparing for the next season of things we must get done and looking ahead to our Christmas programs.

I just want to thank all of you who, while I was in Washington gave to our program Project Merry Christmas. The van God blessed us with in our time in Washington was stuffed from floor to ceiling with barely enough space to sit in.

Your generosity always blesses and overwhelms me. We so appreciate your commitment to God and to working with us. It is such a joy and blessing to have you in our lives working to further the Kingdom of God. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

As December draws closer we are so busy, I wanted to take time now to remind you there is still time to participate in Project Merry Christmas if you have not had the opportunity.

This year, Confirming the Word, the church association we work with has grown by two new churches with the possibility of a third in the next month or so. This adds another 50 children at least to our list 350 for Christmas. That’s 400 children and youth, but I know God will provide as he always has. He is so good and faithful.

We have four months to Christmas and I know the time will fly for us as well as for you. So please take a moment now to think about this and pray; ask the Lord if he would have you be a part of this marvelous program this year and help bring joy in the form of a Christmas present to a child who might not have one with out you.

Your contributions or gifts can be sent to us The Barnets directly or through Koinonia our missions covering and receive your tax deduction for charitable donations.

Love,

Well Ladies the push is on for me! We spent hours and hours yesterday clearing out boxes and re-arranging things and getting the rooms set up better for you all! Man it was hard work but worth it and we are just so excited down here. We have made some exciting changes to the program and we can not wait to see what you all think. Hey, I know God is going to move so it is not too late to bring a Sister who needs to be refreshed and encouraged and spurred on in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Please commit this time to prayer and do some fasting too please for things to just be broke off and freedom like never before to fall down from heaven. Not just for our time together but over our lives totally that we may all be changed for his glory. That we may shine with his love and presence in such a way we do not even have to say a word to be a good witness for his name. That our lives will be so radically changed it will set our churches on fire and our families too! Let make our Lord God proud of us Ladies and walk in the victory!!!

Love you all so dearly, God bless you richly.
See you soon.
Love your sister and servant, Jeanine
