Neu's News Inaugural Issue


BIG NEWS
FROM
THE NEU'S!!




Big changes are ahead and we want to share them with you. We have been serving at Seashore Community Church for the past 4 years but will be transitioning from the beauty of Cape May beach to the jungles of Belize!!


What brings on such a drastic change? Need.


In February, I went back to Belize after several years of traveling to other countries. What I found was encouraging and challenging. Encouraging because there is a revival among the Mayan and Ketchie Indians across Belize. New churches are being planted and new pastors are being raised up.


I was asked to consider going to Belize as a fulltime missionary to train pastors and help them earn their credentials towards ordination. This is a huge task. The vision of those spearheading the work there is to see 80 more churches added in Belize alone and 1000 across the Caribbean. (I said "Yes!" by the way...)


I will be sharing a great deal more about the vision and our part in it in upcoming days. The Lord has already answered HUGE prayers on several levels so we will be certain to share those and give God the glory!


For now, just know that we have loved serving in Cape May. The people here have been wonderful to us. We trust that we have been a blessing to you as well. We will remain in Cape May until the end of August, at which point we will most likely return to Columbus, Ohio to make further preparations before moving to Belize sometime in the next year.



Blessings to you!

Because of Jesus,

Ray & Becki

Hey you guys,
I guess I don't have to tell you how happy we are for you. I know you all will be happy - the jungles of Belize just seems right up your alley :-)! And who knows, maybe we'll be joining you in the future (in about 16 1/2 years)in the mission field...LOL! Will you need a nurse and a "mature" builder/painter? Talk to you guys soon...

Love, US
