Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year from the Gentry's and the Malawians!
Dear Supporting Friends,
Bro. Gardiner & Alice Gentry
P.S. Please remember the poor children and adults during this Thanksgiving & Christmas time - if you have a little extra please send your gift to make their hearts merry.
On November 13th we had an exciting time as the advisory staff of 12 people met to discuss more effective ways to maintain and advance the ministry in Malawi. We saw grown men cry as they related their experiences while working with the poor in Malawi. Thank you to Denise Kennedy our daughter who has been a faithful free gratis worker for VWO these 8 years with paper work, mailouts and financial matters.
Dear Supporting Friends,
We want to feature all of you in this Thanksgiving and Christmas newsletter to express our sincere thanks for your prayers and financial support these past 8 years. You have helped us scatter the precious gospel seed all over the country of Malawi, Africa. We may never have the opportunity to see some of you face to face but God is good to connect us by letter with faith and love as we together respond to the "cry" of the poor and needy. "He hath dispersed abroad he hath given to the poor". II Corinthians 9:9
Many of you traveled from various states across America to come over and help with numerous projects plus teaching, preaching and encouraging the saints and winning the lost. Your hands on touch will long be remembered and rewarded by God. He will not forget your works.
Help has arrived from Alaska! The John Fullford family, his wife Darcy and their 3 teenage children settled in Malawi the month of June. Bro. John is a retired business man, who served his church in various capacities in Fairbanks. The entire family teaches and are all great soul winners. What an asset to the Malawians.
Help will arrive from Fort Dodge, Iowa! Sharon Goodman, a single mother of grown children (one a missionary in Mexico), will begin full time the end of November. Sharon served in the military for years, worked in children's homes, taught school and is a soul winner! She served a number of years at Harvest Baptist Church in Fort Dodge.
More help has come! Chuck and Sheila Miller of Milton, Florida have spent months in Malawi. Chuck is a retired Navy man, who serves his church and country well in the printing ministry, soul winning and various other works. Sheila is secretary to the Pastor and does various helps in the church. She worked 20 years for a major corporation in finances. They will work stateside as well as in Malawi as the Lord provides and especially with finances.
Thank you for making the ministry of Good Samaritan Outreach as known in Malawi, more than just a "dream". You have helped snatch thousands from the fires of hell; you have helped thousands with food, water and clothing, and you have helped hold my hands when sick and weary and old - what more can we say! THANK YOU!!!!
"When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, the Lord hath done great things for them (Malawians). The Lord hath done great things for us; (suppoprters) wherefore we are glad." Psalms 126:1-3
Thank you for your continued support during this difficult time in our U.S. economy. Some of you are experiencing trying times personally in your families. May God help us all in spite of these calamities. Together we must press on in 2009 for the cause of Christ here in America and to the uttermost parts of the world.
