Big Evangelistic Camp Coming Up

We're expecting thousands of youth for our upcoming evangelistic camp this month. I'll be leaving for Cambodia in about a week in order to be there with our group. We're taking 600 youth from our churches to be a part of our evangelistic camp. Please pray for this camp and join with us in spiritual battle as we war against the devil. Satan always tries to stop our camps because Cambodia is territory that he has claimed for centuries, even millenia. Souls of young men and women are all over this battlefield and Satan is fighting to keep their hearts and minds blinded to the liberating gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thanks to Missionary Paul Tabanao for these photos of last month's camp.

Reporting In

Hi everyone, nothing much new to report on Cindy's health situation. She had an outpatient surgery yesterday and they did another biopsy. We're waiting for results.

In the meantime, I will be making a trip to Cambodia around the middle of this month and into the first week of September. Please pray for God's supply for this trip. I have the return portion of my ticket to go there, but need to raise about $1600-2000 for another ticket. We'd appreciate any help with the airline ticket! There are some ministry things that need attention and it is a "must" trip.

One thing coming up is evangelistic camp. We're expecting 5000 to 6000 kids in August to attend a camp with an evangelistic focus. Please pray that thousands of Cambodian youth will be saved during camp in August.

Some of our young men graduated from Bible school last month. They are pictured here.

Budapest and the Danube River

The team was able to spend a day in beautiful Budapest. One of the highlights was a stroll along the Danube River.

Beautiful Gypsy Children

















The emptiness of sin is portrayed in this drama. The inability of drugs and drug abuse to satisfy the soul's deep need is portrayed here.

More Photos From Leah's Romania Trip

What a blessing! About 80 souls received Christ as a result of the T.I.M.E. ministry's evangelistic dramas! These "wordless" dramas are great for the mission field because no one has to learn a foreign language to present the gospel!

Leah said that the Romanian countryside was truly a beautiful place! It was a beautiful place of mountains, rolling hills, and farmland.

Leah Is Back From Romania

This is Leah with a group of Gypsy children in a village in Romania.

It sure is great to have Leah back, but honestly, I think she'd get right back on the next plane to Romania! She had a wonderful and blessed trip! About 80 people trusted Christ as a result of the "wordless" gospel dramas that they did! Praise the Lord! The T.I.M.E. teams out of IBB Miami have a great ministry for evangelizing lost people around the world. We've hosted a team in Cambodia and hope to have another team back again someday. Thanks to everyone who prayed and helped to send support for Leah to be on this mission trip. Lord willing, she'll be going to South America next summer.

Cindy's Bronchoscopy Tomorrow

Well, here's the new info. The PET scan works like this: you take in this glucose solution which is designed to act as "food" for cancer cells and any other "active" hungry cells. Basically, active cells are either cancerous or infectious. Two places in her lungs "lit up" as active. They are located in the left lung near the windpipe. So as of right now, they know that she either has cancer there or she has a very serious infection. The blood work has ruled out infection. Cindy was treated with strong antibiotics last month and so she doesn't think it's an infection. I hope she's wrong, but we'll see. Tomorrow at 1 PM she will have outpatient surgery. They are going to do a bronchoscopy. They will insert a tube through her nose and it will have a camera as well as the ability to take tissue samples for a biopsy. We will meet with the doctor again on Tuesday morning to discuss the results of the biopsy. That's where we stand as of now. We'll update you when we know more. Pray for us as the portion we pay is mounting. Insurance pays for 80% but these tests are $2,000 to $3,000 each. We've had three this month, plus the surgery is coming up tomorrow. I have no idea what that's going to cost.

Thank you for every prayer sent to the throne of grace. God bless ya'll!
