Ruth is heading to the Western Sahara, and appreciates your prayers and financial support. View this email in your browser Awaiting Us In the Desert... Dear Friend, How encouraging to read Revelation 15:4: and they were singing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb: Great and marvelous are your doings, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, O King of Ages. Who shall not fear, O Lord, and glorify your Name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous deeds have been disclosed. (The Living Bible)
On Monday, October 29, I again fly to the Western Sahara to disclose God s righteous deeds, because both you and I believe that one day all nations will come and worship before [the Lord God Almighty]! I return on Wednesday, November 7. I very much need your prayers as I speak during the Dialogue (November 3-5) on Peaceful Communications between Husband and Wife, based on Jesus Teachings. Again, in our teachings, the six of us evangelical theologians/pastors emphasize how to know and follow Jesus. Please pray that hearts be open to hear the truth. Please pray that there will be those (we may be unaware) who understand and accept the Good News of the Living Lamb of God. There are, of course, many unknowns. Satan has previously attacked us through others anger, horrendous sand/rain storms, miscommunication, and sickness. For the first time, Janet, who leads our team, goes as a widow. Since her husband s death (December 2017), changes have occurred in the mission she founded. However, the people we minister to love her dearly and insist that the Dialogue continue. We praise God! Please pray for protection; that peace, joy, and laughter bolster our group.
Ruth interpreting from Spanish into English for English-speaking visitors in a Saharan school. Two other JOYS to relate fruits of your prayers and giving: In September, I preached in a rural Methodist church, built in 1824! It was a fun time as we studied The Holiness of God; many spoke of being encouraged by the sovereignty and deep love of our holy God.
Through the sales of Pillars books, we were able to partner with another mission, 1Together (founded by our daughter, Christy Davis, and her friend, Stacey Hartman), and provide bunk beds for young women studying in a Bible School in India. They were so grateful to get off the floor where they were sleeping, since scorpions and snakes roamed among them! The Director said, Thank you so much! The future evangelization of India depends in great part on the work of young women like these. Praise the Lord with us! Thank you, thank you, friend, for your continued prayer and financial support of Pillars endeavors in God s needy world! As we all look forward to celebrating Thanksgiving next month, YOU are a great part of my thanksgiving to God. May our gratitude flow over into action, loving and guiding others to Jesus! Lovingly in Christ, Ruth (Please do not reply to this email. If you would like to write a personal note, email rtconard@gmail.com.)
