Jason and Sarah are missionaries to Venezuela. They are currently raising support with plans to be on the field in just a couple more years. We talk about being new missionaries on deputation during a rocky economy. Jason also shares with us some of the issues with getting into Venezuela and some of their options.
You can read more about the Sykes family at their website. They also have links to some great resources for missionaries.
Missionary Tim Strang grew up on the mission field in Mexico. He returned after a short time in the US and has been serving along side his family in smaller towns and villages. Tim talks about living in the smaller towns and shares some thoughts about being a missionary kid in a foreign country.
At the end he shares two testimonies that are exciting. One is about a lady who has no education, but has been used to bring her family to the Lord. The other is about a young man who had an opportunity to hear the Gospel for many years, but just didn’t “get it.” Finally after he was saved while visiting in the US, he returned to Mexico to reach his friends and family for Christ.
It was a privilege speaking with Chris and Carol Woodley as they talked about their ministry in the Philippines. They have both a hearing church and a deaf church. They also have a school and Bible institute for the Deaf and an institute for hearing who want to study God’s Word.
They share with us their passion to read and study the Bible. They are very encouraging to young people to study God’s Word. Whether you feel called to be a missionary or not, reading and studying the Bible is very important.
