Greetings in the name of Jesus! Thank you for your prayers and support!
We have so many wonderful things to report! Samantha and Marcia have started at Belhaven University as freshmen. Jacob (Micah) has started his second year of the Trainee program at Ballet Magnificat! And, Abigail got into Germantown High School as a nineth grader.
You see, as many of you know, Michelle travelled back to Japan this past summer. We really felt the Lord telling us that it was time for us to take care of our stuff in Japan. The Lord told us that as we simplified and got things in order, that He was preparing us for new things.
Michelle had an awesome time in Japan! And, relationships there are better than ever. Yet, for the first time in a long time, we are all in one place! And, we are so excited about what God has prepared for us. In fact, we believe we have entered into a season of expansion in our assignment here in Mississippi:
1. Home ownership. Yes, God has expanded our borders by giving us the opportunity to purchase a home. By settling in on a piece of land here, we believe God is expanding our assignment in such a way that God will not use us to bring forth the Kingdom in a greater way here, but will also allow us to establish a base that will open a road to the nations.
2. The creation of an International "Life Group". Yes, we have started this group with the vision that it will turn into an International Fellowship of believers. At our first meeting, we had representation from three countries other than the USA; Vietnam, Malaysia, and Japan. We started by discussing which God we are going to learn about. Of course, He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords; Jesus!
Please pray for us as we continue in this expansion of assignment.
Christmas offering
Finally, As we sense God expanding us in our assignment, we would like to use the Reign of Grace ministries mission to raise an offering for Gentle Hands in the Philippines. Gentle Hands is an orphanage located on the outskirts of Manila. They take in all orphans including sibling sets and special needs children. We have visited several times and I know this ministry work to be effective and worthy of our seed offering. We are believing to send an offering at Chritmas time and welcome your giving to this work. More details later.
As always, we would like to hear from you. Our new address is: 113 Bradfield Road, Madison,
Mississippi 39110.
Blessings to you!
Mark & Michell Gulland
