Dear Friends of FOMMI:
Since writing last on August 15, I have heard words of encouragement from many of you as you remember your connection to Fisher-Mund as he was an ambassador of our Lord. You have written from Washington, Greenland, Michigan, Mississippi, West Virginia, Florida and Texas. We are beginning our second year of serving the Lord since Fisher-Mund’s departure. Thank you for continuing to uphold this ministry in your prayers and financial support. Speaking of prayers, this year has seen two of FOMMI’s prayer warriors taken to heaven. Patricia (Pat) Habedank was a very special servant of the Lord and a very faithful prayer warrior not only for FOMMI and the Mund family, but for a long list of others. She was a special friend to me with whom I could share burdens and know she was praying for God’s will. I miss her. Frances Newby is the second prayer warrior who is greatly missed. This just increases my anticipation of joining them! I know most of you who receive this letter pray for FOMMI regularly, and I just want you to know it is of the greatest value.
The Bible school in India seems to flourish with persecution. Since August, 18 people have been baptized and 22 more accepted Christ as their Saviour and Lord in an area where they are often attacked by anti-Christian groups. Regular Bible studies are progressing in 16 villages where there are no churches even as other villages are visited. In three villages there is no proper water supply, causing much sickness. Also it is difficult to reach these villages as they are somewhat remote. FOMMI has sent support to bore a well to supply healthy water, and to purchase a motor bike to aid in physically reaching the villages for evangelization.
The ministry in Bangladesh continues to expand. The Bible school is set to open in January 2023. The trip to Bangladesh in February 2023 is still being planned, but because of so much time required to travel to and from, it will omit plans to go to the Philippines. Bro. Jeph from the Philippines will meet the travelers from the U.S. in Dhaka to accompany them on to the “fishing fields” of Bangladesh with Bro. Lemon.
As the hurricane season is winding down here in the U.S., so is the typhoon season for the Philippines. Bro. Jeph reports all is well there, even as they recently endured a strong earthquake. He was expressing his thankfulness that the building was properly built and escaped damage.
No matter how many times I read the Bible, there is always something that never “registered” previously. I refer to God and Jesus Christ as “the Lord”, and recently I discovered in Isaiah 42:8, “I am the LORD: that is my name…”. What have you discovered recently?
“The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: the LORD make his face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: the LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace” (Numbers 6:24-26).
