Another Step on the Journey

I am writing from Springfield Mo where we have just finished another day at School of Missions. We are preparing for our return to the work of Bible translation with the Mesem. It's been a journey.

Our first term Michael Card gave us permission to use his song "There is a Joy in the Journey" for our slide show. It's a great song about the learning to love the places God brings us and knowing freedom in obeying Him. Since coming to MO we've seen friends with whom we trained 20 years ago who are continuing with us and doing the same work to see that no one in the world has to hear God's Word "second hand".

When we return to MA, I will continue to chronicle the "True Story of the Mesem Translation". Those are stories that need to be told. They are the markers that remind us God is faithful, He will do what He said, and "Faithful is He who has called you, who also will do it".

Pray that the Mesem work can resume quickly. We are anxious to get back to it. In the meantime, God is not idle and His Spirit is moving. It's His Name on the line.
Joyful on the journey,
Kathy
