October 2017
Dear Pastor and praying friends:
For us, this Summer was a hot one as we spent the whole month of July (starting the 5th) in either Arizona or Nevada.
Initially, I had had difficulty scheduling meetings for the month of August but, despite that fact, God blessed and we were able to be a part of Berean Bible Baptist Church’s Missions Conference (Chula Vista, CA). God used us to fill their need of a Missionary and God used them to fill our need of a meeting. Praise the Lord they voted to take us on for support at the end of the Conference.
We just finished a wonderful Missions Conference with Temple Baptist Church (Flower Mound, TX), they were such a blessing to us, on the off night they allowed Lorin and I to go out on a date for our 4th Wedding Anniversary, this was BIG because we have not been able to have a proper celebration since we got married. Temple, as well, will be partnering with us to reach Mozambique.
In the last two months, I have been informed by three Churches that they will begin partnering with us at the beginning of the New Year. Thank you, Mt. Olivea Baptist Church, (Northridge, CA), Beacon Baptist Church (Phoenix, AZ) and Calvary Baptist Church (Anaheim, CA)
The Big News of this prayer letter is that the 3rd week of August we drove out to Indiana and picked up our travel trailer where it had been sitting in storage for the last 10 months. This will prove to be a huge blessing to us, saving us the expense of hotels bills, and storage fees on the trailer, and our personal belongings, as well as a blessing for the churches we visit saving them the expense of hotels for us.
Thank you, so very much, for your financial and prayer support as we continue to make our way to Mozambique. In Christ’s Service, The Tayler Norris Family, your missionaries to Mozambique
Deuteronomy 33:27
I Thessalonians 5:25 “Brethren, pray for us.”
Prayer Requests:
- Safety as we, continue traveling
- For our Trailer that we would not have any problems with it as we approach the winter months
- We will be able to schedule meetings and fill our calendar.
- We will raise the support needed to go to the field.
- For the People of Mozambique that God would work even now in the hearts and lives of the
- people to prepare them for the Gospel.
- For our ability to learn quickly as we begin to study Portuguese and as we continue a course in Biblical Studies to complete our required classes.
- For our continued good health, so that there will be no setbacks to Deputation.
Our Spiritual lives that we will remain close to God and grow each and every day closer to him, that we will not stray from His will or be caught up in the snares of the Devil.
