23rd  – 30th March    Tromso - 200 miles North of the Arctic Circle

The month of January was fully booked up and amongst other things we saw 6 people make commitments to Christ.  Halleluia.
New “Lifestyle Course”  C.D. and Songbook
Last year we were so busy we had no time to be able to record our new songs or  to gather our thoughts together for a new course we want to write.  Consequently, though we are waiting for confirmation of dates from some churches in England, we  have set aside time to be at home to work on a New C.D. and write a “Lifestyle Course”. 

We also need time to reflect, pray and listen to God.     “Be still and know that I am God”. (Psalm 46:10)  Being still is not something we’re always very good at,  but this year we are committed to make this happen.

For the past few years we’ve been teaching about friendship evangelism in churches at home and abroad.  Though this has been very successful we believe God has given us inspiration for an exciting new course designed to inspire the church and challenge us all to a deeper passion and commitment to Jesus Christ. 

This is very labour intensive and requires much study, prayer and time to write and produce.  The Lord has provided us with space in the calendar to complete this project.

Would you consider helping financially so that we can focus on this exciting new venture plus a new C.D. and songbook. 

 
The Tromso Baptist church is the most northerly Baptist church in the world.
The sun doesn’t rise above the horizon for 3 months of the year.
We have received reports that a large percentage of the young people are depressed. There is nothing to do, so many are turning to drink and drugs.

Part of the aim is for us to encourage the younger Christians and go into the nightclubs to get alongside those who have not yet come to faith.

We will be encouraging the church.  Preaching, teaching, leading worship, evangelistic concert.

A scripture was given to Jan in a dream just recently……Zechariah 6:8  Then he called to me.  “Look those going toward the north country have given my Spirit rest in the land of the north.”
It is our belief that the Lord is preparing the way before we even arrive and that He, seeing the bigger picture, will pour out His Sprit as we faithfully minister in the North.
We have never been to the Arctic before and once again find ourselves stepping into the unknown but after receiving this scripture we are very excited and can’t wait to see what God is going to do.
