| Kelly and I wish we could sit down with you
face to face to thank you for your friendship and
partnership with the first work begun here in the
Dominican Republic, New Life Baptist. We are
grateful for you and want to share a 'bit' of what
is going on this summer. It has been and
will continue to be very busy through August, but
we have had some TREMENDOUS help from several
churches back in the
states!

What's been going on:
|
Since our last
letter we have seen several souls saved; started
new discipleship classes; finished a Sunday School
training class; hosted 2 groups, one from N.C. and
one from GA; as well as celebrated our 6th
anniversary on June 1st. Our youth leader,
Edwin and his fiancee, Milly have both started a
Bible Study for our Men and Women respectively on
Wednesday nights. We are so thankful to our
Lord that there is 'Life' here as we are
fulfilling His Great
Commission!

Upcoming Summer Events:
|
|
Vacation Bible School will be held July 9-11
this year. Our theme is "Home Run", and we
are thrilled at seeing all the volunteer helpers,
and pray for the souls and hearts of each child
whom participate. The following week, July
14-17th, we will be hosting Missionary Shannon
Hampton for the 6th time, as he teaches another
intensive Bible course on "Church History".
August 6-8 will be our annual Youth Retreat up in
the mountains in which we have invited 3 other
wonderful churches to be a part. Please pray
for these upcoming events. We hope to have
an update in our next letter of what God as
done!

Project Exodus 25:8 - Phase
II |
Last week we officially
launched Phase
II of Project
Exodus 25:8 before the church. The
service was God filled, and as one lady put it,
"You would have thought at the invitation that
Pastor said, 'everyone come up here to the
alter', by the way everyone
responded." Needless to say, we are excited
but in
need! We have expanded our
limits in our current building as far as knocking
down walls, therefore Phase II includes:
Resetting our current building with steel beams in
order to knock down and clear out the interior for
the worship service (double our occupancy limit),
purchase the house directly behind our church to
be used exclusively for S.S. classes, and change
the facade of our current building which sits on
the main highway to look more like a church.
Our people are ready and we are praying for their
hearts, and asking the Lord for this great need to
be
fulfilled.

We are so grateful for each one of you and
your love and commitment to the Lord. He is
so good to us. Isaiah 65:24 reminds us that
even before we call on Him, He is already working
on our behalf!" Be blessed in knowing how
much He watches and knows us!
Expanding HIS kingdom, John
Webb The Webbs---Dominican Republic
