New Cov Families Around the World
The Brown Family
A New Covenant family working in Central Asia
Hello from over here! We hope to see many of you this summer when we are back in Lincoln, at least in a large group if not more individually. In the meantime, we hope that most of you keep up with us on our website: www.brownews.org. Also, we are thankful for those of you who have signed up for our Prayer Community and regularly pray for us.
This year looks set to be another fruitful year in our work. We, and others, plant and water, but it is God who gives the growth. This year we hope to see fruit in five areas in particular:
- The discipleship of their women;
- Adding more theological training sites in other countries where "Angus" live, beyond the two sites in their main country;
- Coming a bit more out of the shadows and connecting with the global Church;
- Training them to run their own organizations, both church-network structures and humanitarian aid organizations; and
- Helping them start a Cooperative Program to fund their own ministries.
We would love to see some of you over this way as well. If you are an educator, a farmer, or a seasoned administrator/manager - or even if you only play one on TV - make sure you have a passport, because you just might find yourself as a hands-on participant in this adventure fairly soon. The rest of you - you're not off the hook either! If you want to come, we will find a place for you.
See you here or there!
Jeff, Diane, Daniel and Alyssa
