Bendale Women’s Christmas Fellowship
We are sorry that we didn’t have a pot luck dinner this year.
We would, however, ask you to consider making a donation in
the Sunday offering and marking it for the “Women’s Fellowship”.
As you know, each Christmas we have taken a special offering for our missionaries – Susan Robinson, working with the youth in Tillsonburg and Karin Flock – working with University students in Austria.
We do not want to miss out on this opportunity to help Karin and Susan with all the extra expenses that come at Christmas.
They have always been so very grateful for the generosity of the women at Bendale.
We hope you will consider participating in this way.
Thank you.
Pray for Missionaries we support and know
Karin & Bernd Flock
- Student ministry in full swing, weekly Bible studies. Book table in pedestrian zone downtown – over 100 books given away and 5,000 devotional calendars as well.
- Käti continues to get tested looking for ways resolve her problems
- Upstairs neighbours were touched by the message of a visiting evangelist
- answered prayer – downstairs neighbours – able to share the gospel with them (both very ill in 70s)
- 2 young women have started a ministry with women in Mureck.
- Dec 13 – flying to visit Heidi and kids for Christmas
- Thank you for our continued support – 28 years in Austria
Susan Robinson
- Please pray for the Howes Family? Karen has had cancer for a while and she went home to be with the Lord Wednesday morning. Please pray for her children (Candace & Matt) especially, during this difficult time. Her husband has been amazing and so supportive. Please pray for strength for Richard.
- I have to get a 30 cm mass checked out on my leg but the doctor’s think that this will be clear as well. My leg never went down in swelling after my Stinging Nettle episode.
- I would love your continued prayers. I have this rash all over my body. It’s terribly itchy and absolutely raw. I have been in the woods cutting down some pine limbs. Pine is no good for your skin, apparently.
- Please continue to pray for the work here. With Christmas just around the corner, many youth are experiencing significant sadness. Many do not have a family to spend Christmas with also several youth have to choose which parent to spend Christmas with. Pray that our young people will find Peace this Christmas.
Remember to be generous with your giving to those who have so little.
Jesus said “For I was hungry and you fed me…” the righteous said “Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you…” and the king would tell them: When you did it to the one of the least of these, my brothers and sisters you were doing it to me”. Matt 25:3a, 36a, 40
DONATIONS SHOULD BE UNWRAPPED. Please DO NOT bring perishables or glass containers. Donation boxes are in the front lobby.
