Missionary Update: Marcus & Elisabeth Curtis & Family
We arrived back in the US just over a month ago. We are adjusting to the temperatures-arriving in Ohio during a record-breaking cold February. We have been preparing for
deputation, and spending time at my mother's home in Lowellville, OH, near
Youngstown.
Praises:
Our home church has a missionary home that will be ready for us in late spring. Our
family is looking forward to living in Midland, MI again, and being a part of our
church and local community.
Our children have enjoyed being back in the US, and LOVE being able to understand
every game, song, verse and story in English at Bible Baptist Temple's Master's Club
on Wednesday nights. They are excited about spending time with their friends, and that they can understand each other so
well.
Prayer Requests:
We are praying for a good vehicle for deputation travel.
We are praying for on-going ministry partners. A large portion of our support for our short-term trip was made up of onetime gifts, or only for the duration of our time in Brazil.
We are praying for a full travel schedule, visiting churches to share our burden to return to the ministry at Beit Chayei
Shalom.
How is the ministry there now?
Camp Ministry: The six area churches' young people had a great week of camp February. There were a number of decision
made that week, and two people were saved. Two of the young men from our church indicated that they have surrendered
their lives to the Lord, and are open to full-time ministry. Please pray with us for Cassio (age 13), Felipe (age 15) and Ruben
(age 22). Ruben has shown so much leadership in various aspects of our church ministry, and has spent lots of time with
Felipe, teaching him to play the guitar, singing together, taking him when he goes on house to house evangelism
visits. Cassio has jumped right in helping around the property as a way to pay his camp off ahead of time--finding helpful
things to do more than was asked! He also helped us run Vacation Bible School. It is encouraging to see our young people
take steps of obedience.
