Boston Seminar: May 2024 Update

“Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love,
that we may rejoice and be glad all our days…
Let your work be shown to your servants,
and your glorious power to their children.
Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
and establish the work of our hands upon us;
yes, establish the work of our hands!” Psalm 90:14,16,17

We are thankful for a fruitful Finding Joy Seminar in Boston on April 20th. GFI Guide, Rob Semco and Nancy drove down from Rhode Island. He shared his testimony and taught one of the sessions. About 65 attended and a variety of nationalities were represented.

April 27,28 Linda and I ministered at First Baptist Church in Proctorville, Ohio. She spoke at a women’s banquet on Saturday night and I ministered the Word Sunday morning and evening. GFI’s association with that church is special, spanning over two decades.

Mark has also had good pulpit ministry opportunities, preaching at Venture Church in N.C. on April 20th and Northstar South Campus on April 27th. (See the sermon video recording via GFI’s Facebook page.)

We are happy to confirm that Lynn Adams & Linda Gammon’s book has been published and is available in our bookstore. Life in Christ: A Personalized Discipleship Notebook is a unique, in-depth study of the exchanged life, designed to be used in 12 week process. May the Lord use this tool to equip and guide many.

Speaking of publications, our coworkers in South Africa have been able to publish another GFI article in Joy Magazine there. And Mark & Carrie are in the process of planning a ministry trip back to South Africa to further equip and encourage the ministry outreach in that troubled land.

Episode 35 of our Glimpses of Grace audio podcast features a testimonial interview by our Associate, Cherri Raws Freeman. She gives an inspirational overview of the founding of America’s Keswick in New Jersey, her personal spiritual journey, and the development of Love Them to Life. Her latest book is so needed: Set Free: Finding Truth and Hope When a Loved One is Addicted.

As our world gets darker, the light of the Gospel of salvation and identification needs to shine brighter. May the Lord establish His work in and through us.
