Dear Pastors and Praying Friends,

January

What a wonderful and great year the Lord has allowed us to have. During our first five months on deputation the Lord has allowed us to be in so many churches presenting our burden for Chile. He has been so gracious to my family and I while we have been on the road and has kept us safe and for that we thank him! During our travels we have been able to see many place and different cities and noticed a common theme, this world is drifting more and more away from God!! We need NOW more than ever to spread the gospel around the world. January has been a great month for my family. We have been in the State of California and enjoying the warm weather. The Lord has allowed us to be in 6 churches this month sharing our burden for the people and the field of Chile. I would like to say thank you to Faith Baptist Church in Crawfordsville, IN and Crossroads Baptist Church in Oakland, CA for partnering with us to reach the Chilean people with the Gospel of Christ! One of the joys of being a missionary is you travel with your family and minister with them. But as a father of 4, the best satisfactions, I get is watching and listening to my kids during visitation time knocking on door after door handing out gospel tracks and inviting people to church. My 4 year old is getting involved and even had one lady ask him how he learned to say all that and his words were this cause I want you to come to church and learn about God. Proverbs 22:6 says Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it My son hasnt accepted Christ yet, but a simple truth of a 4 year old is humbling to this dad. It motivates my family and I to keep witnessing everywhere we go for the cause of Christ! We look forward to the month of February as we will continue to be in the State of California and also Idaho presenting our burden. We also look forward to being at the National GIBF meeting in National City, CA. Serving Chile De Vare & Cindy Williams Courtney, Brianna, Alexander, Marcus
