Dear Supporters,
This has been a challenging three months. Several times we have tried to email you to express our thanks or ask prayer for specific concerns but were prevented from doing so. Either our computer was crashing, or our means of transportation was unavailable, or I was down sick. But God in His mercy has held us securely through it all.
Gary and I just want you to know how much we love you and thank God for each one of you. We pray for you all by name.
Serving Together,
Ruth and Gary

At the request of Rev. Daniel Doe, Gary and I, along with a team from his church in Monrovia, ministered one-on-one discipleship to a group of leaders from the Baptist Association of 17 churches in Lower Nimba County. Details will come later.
“What we are sharing with you this week, my people, is not a program but a way of LIFE; for we are living in a spiritual war against the spirits of darkness and cannot win that war by a program, but by living every day EMPOWERED by the Lord Jesus Christ. We must each day put on all God’s armor, so that we can stand against the power of the Evil One who is fighting to destroy us. Through Jesus Christ only we can have victory over Satan. God’s Word says…..
“My people, be strong in the Lord and in the Power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against all the tricks of the Devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in heavenly places…..”But thanks be to God Who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!”
