May 2009

Dear Friends and Partners,

Thank you for your faithful prayers and support. We ask that you stand in agreement with us for an increase in finances and an increase in new partners with a heart for missions. We know that God is faithful and meets all of our needs.

News from Myanmar:

We have received good news from the Nazareth Children’s Home that the two boys who have received medical treatment are recovering and back in school. Before they came to the children’s home they were suffering from malnutrition but now with your love, proper diet and medical treatment they are growing strong in bodies and spirit. Thank you to all our partners from the staff and children.

We have just completed the addition of an office and library for the Bible school in Yangon. This will be a big help to the students who are attending now and also for past students for their continued training and preparation for the ministry.

The new church buildings in the villages of Lashio, Heho and Indaw are almost finished. We have achieved much already this year. Thank you for being a part of this success.

Personal News:

Mary will be in the UK for four weeks ministering and seeing our daughter Faith who lives in Manchester, England. Faith took a year off work last year to travel with two other girl friends on a backpacking trip. It was a wonderful experience for her. She was in South America, New Zealand, Australia and Asia. She especially loved her time in Asia. She has always had a special love for the children’s homes that we sponsor and she volunteered to help at an orphanage in Viet Nam. Faith returned to England and went back to her job in Manchester which helps disabled people find employment. She is continuing to study sign language. We are very proud of Faith and we know that God has good plans for her.

Please pray for Mary as she ministers in the UK that she will have divine favor and protection as she travels and opportunity to promote our mission work.

We want to remember our good friend and partner Jerry Taylor who after a long illness has gone on to be with the Lord. We pray for his wife Linda and family that God will comfort them and give them peace. Jerry and Linda have been a part of our ministry and mission work for 25 years. Money was donated at his memorial service in memory of Jerry to go to the Nazareth Children’s Home in Myanmar.

Thank you for standing with us to reach the world with the good news of Jesus Christ.

In His service,

Roger and Mary King
