Dear brothers and sisters
The church that does not carry a passion to reach the world isolates people behind walls of cultural irrelevance.
Please have a look at the "Evangelistic Tools" of our website on www.travelmissions.org. You will be equipped and edified!!!!
Well, on a more positive note. We have been greatly blessed to have been part of reaching out to the farmers and farm workers, saved and unsaved. We have been praying for the sick and sharing the truth to the unsaved and stirring up the saved to be a blessing to our Lord and savior by reaching out to those who don't know Him. Many come to the Lord and many who were out of fellowship were restored.
We are preparing for our next phases, Thailand and then Greece. We have been invited by Strategic Ministries to go back to Chiang Mai for an outreach with a group of 20 people. We will be working with Lighthouse Ministries in the red district and train pastors on evangelism. We still need 8 people to join the team.

We have truly been blessed during our time in South Africa. One thing we can say is that there is definitely a silent revival in South Africa. Every time that we return we experience a greater hunger for Him. People talk easily about Jesus everywhere and it isn't a "personal matter" as years ago. We have been to nearly 30 countries and there is none like SA spiritually. The only thing that really makes us sad is the selfishness…." I have been saved and just want to know more and just want to be blessed" instead of "I have been saved and I need others to be saved too". We don't blame anybody but we question the leadership. Very few are prepared to preach, teach or train effective evangelism because it isn't a comfortable subject. When we minister in churches, we find a shocking statistic that 1-2 percent of the body of Christ evangelize to unsaved people. When we question why they don't, they normally reply that they don't know how to or that they are afraid. You will be afraid too if you don't know how to!!!! Come on! Let us stop trying to please our congregations and start to do what God expects from us. Let us stop seeking after blessings the whole time and rather be a blessing to the Lord. Just 2 days ago an elderly man asked Jono why we go out to other countries and don't rather work in South Africa. Obviously obedience is the primary reason, but Jono's answer at the time was "There are so many born-again Christians in South Africa already, why do they always want someone else to do their responsibility? It is the body of Christ's task to reach the people around them, not just the missionaries."
Jono was blessed with new boots by a missionary from Bulgaria (Casper) and we really thank the Lord for His faithfulness and the missionary's obedience. Well, now his feet are nice and warm again and blessed are the feet of those who bring good news.
(We will leave SA 23 June and return 4 July).
We also need 8 more people to join the additional or extended outreach to Crete for 10 more days.
