My Dear
Teammates, June 6, 2007
My heart is filled with praises to the Lord today! The
little song is going through my mind that says, “Our God is an awesome God, He reigns
from heaven above”! Does that mean the enemy is not fighting? Not
at all. In fact, he has never fought harder, but the Word says, “greater
is He that is in me than he who is in the world”! That’s enough to shout
about, don’t you agree?
This is my annual appeal letter for our summer
outreaches. By faith, we have planned one of our most aggressive
missionary campaigns to our Native American brothers and sisters than ever
before. In fact, the first big rig just returned from our first summer
trip to Whiteclay, Nebraska.
Our Field Director, Marv Boettcher, along with David Gowan, had a great and
successful trip. Marv just told me when they formed a circle and held
hands while they prayed, John Bush wept and said, “this is really doing
something for my people”! Pictures of this trip will soon be posted on
our website at www.frontiermissions.org
By faith, and with your help, Teammates, we have four more
trips planned before this month is over. We are taking a load of
groceries to Jim Blewett and the Nez Perce in Lapwai, another load to Pastor
John Bush, where he ministers to eighteen different out posts, then back to
Lapwai, June 23-29, where for the seventh straight year our young people will
hold VBS in the park, and winding up with a trip south to Williams, Arizona,
where Calvin Bennett is faithfully ministering to the Native American people.
Teammate, every time we pull one of the Western Star big
rigs up to the fuel pumps, it costs over $600 to “fill ‘er up”. Do we
have the money in the bank to buy all that diesel fuel? No, we don’t, but God
does! Would you just pray and ask God if He would have you help us?
One precious Indian man, women, boy or girl who finds God would make it all
worth while.
We need to hear from you soon. There is a new
assurance around Frontier Missions, that God is still on the throne and that He
will move on your heart to send that check, along with your prayers and
support. We cannot make all these trips without your help. A little
later in the summer, if God provides the finances, we plan to attend Crow Fair
at Crow Agency, Montana.
This is the largest gathering of Native Americans in the country, and they do
not allow outsiders, but Pastor Ken Pretty-On-Top has invited us! This
will be Frontiers’ first time there. Please hold us up in prayer.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, Teammates. May
God richly bless you, is my prayer.
Darrell E. Kennedy President
