Dear Praying Friends,
I
find it hard to believe that it is already that time of year to send out the
year end ministry report! What a great
year that we have had. We are so very thankful to be your partners in ministry
as we serve our truly great God! My family and I send a heartfelt thank you to
each of you for your prayer support, financial support, and gifts and love that
you have shown us this past year. We pray that we have been a blessing and an encouragement
to all who have crossed our path.
Phillipians
4:17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to
your account. I give the year end detailed report, not for our glory (for
we are nothing without Christ), but to glorify God who has given the increase,
and to encourage you that we are working together for the cause of Christ, that
you may see some of the fruit that is added to YOUR account.
This
past year we drove over 52,000 miles, saw nearly 20 different states, helped to
beautify and remodel 13 churches, were a part of 51 preaching meetings-including
13 special Bible-history-KJV conferences-, conducted/helped in 4 Vacation Bible
Schools, built floats to present the Gospel in 2 parades, and stayed busy for
God. All of this was for one main priority- to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ
everywhere we went, and God allowed us to see 181 precious souls trust Christ!
We saw many folks rededicate their lives to serving God, and many other
decisions made for Him!
We
praise God also for fruit that remains. We had the opportunity this year to
return to several churches that we had been in previously, and to see folks
that had trusted Christ the last time we were there, still attending church,
growing in Christ, and being used of God to bring others to know Him as well!
As
we look forward to the future, please pray with us for health and safety as we
travel, and that God would continue to use us to be a blessing to every person
that we meet, and as a witness to the lost. Please pray with my wife Sandy, my
daughter Lilly, and me as we strive to be servants of God. Please pray also
that God would increase our monthly support so that we may remain full time on
the road. May God continue to bless you and your ministry; we are praying for
each of you and thank God for you.
Your servants for Christ,
The Watts Family
