Dear Pastor Gass and Harvest Baptist Temple,
“April showers bring May flowers” and boy did they! The prayers lifted up for us in April, I believe, brought the flowers of partnered churches in May. We had three churches partner with us to reach Colorado with the Gospel! We now have over 20% of our needed support with just 3 full months of deputation. Praise God! Our new partners are listed at the end of our prayer letter.
The month of May saw us in S. Carolina, N. Carolina, Maryland, and Missouri. We have been in some good meetings. I thank God for the privilege to serve Him full time and to spend so much time in the House of God. The last church we were with in May was Berean Baptist Church in Springfield, MO. As a child my family attended this church as my Dad was in Bible College and this is the first time I have been back since I was about 10 or 11 years old. What a “homecoming”! It was a great blessing to see this church still standing for the “old paths” and to see many folks I had known as a child still serving God there. It was an added blessing to have this church partner with us to reach Colorado.
As we go into June we are praying for the Lord to fill up our empty dates. In June we have open the
following dates: 9th, 12th(AM), 20th, 27th(PM), and the 30th. Please pray for us that we can fill these
dates. We will be in North Carolina during that time. If you know of any Pastors in the N. Carolina area
that might be willing to have us in I would appreciate getting their info. I would like any help that folks
might give us in getting meetings. With just 10 months of deputation left getting their info. I would like
any help that folks might give us in getting meetings. With just 10 months of deputation left I would like
to fill our calendar.
My wife and children are doing well. Carlene is now going into her 6thmonth of pregnancy and for the
most part doing well with the traveling. July will be her last month traveling until after the baby is born.
Please help us pray for God’s guidance as we decide how to have this baby. Carlene has always
wanted a home birth and we are thinking about doing that with a mid-wife. Pray for the kids as
traveling and having to sit still for hours on end is not the way children like to live. HAHA! They like
going to new places but not the sitting to get there. Abigail turned 1 year old on the 28thof May and
Nathanael will turn 6 on the 11thof June. They grow up so quick! Prayer Request: Please pray that
God would fill our calendar with meetings and continue to raise our support for us. Pray for safety
on the roads. In the next couple of months we will be in N. Carolina, Missouri, N. Dakota, and S.
Dakota.
Thank you again for standing with us in prayer and support.
God bless y’all!
Serving THE Mighty God,
Michael E. Thornsley Jr.
