Thank you so much for keeping us so well informed on what you are able to do to help the displaced families. The pictures help to see the gravity of the situation there, inspiring us to pray even more. We are so thankful for God's favor in providing a temporary home and employment for the men to prepare it for their families to move in. May His people here continue to respond with finances to help toward meeting the tremendous needs. We continue to pray for both of you and your team as you lead the work; for God's continued wisdom, for strength and good health. We hope W's family is well and that that his new son is regaining his health.

ReplyDeleteKen,
Greetings in our victorious Savior's name
I just returned last night from China mission trip--God is really awesome and His Kingdom Light is invading the darkenss there.
I am so moved by the incredible needs of the refugees in Pakistan. I thank God for sending you there again and pray that He provides all that is needed in every situation.

Dear Brother ... Thanks be to G-d for His Faithfulness in placing you and ORR there at this time. I am just getting caught up on some of the details there since I returned to the States.
ReplyDeleteThough the needs are certainly overwhelming, be encouraged that it is obvious from your text and pictures that our L-rd is doing His Mighty Work through you in the lives of many ... one precious soul at a time, right?
May His Peace and Protection fill you to overflowing so that His Purposes will be sought by all those divine appointments He places in your path.
May the Blood of His Sacrifice cover you (and the team)at all times. little Ken (well, at least, the younger one!)
I will try you call you again tonight ...
Ken, I just received a copy of your last letter addressed to pastors & leaders. I will advise others of your need & see if they can help in any way. May the Lord protect you & Waheed as you minister in His name. I know the need is great but we have a mighty God.
