Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,

It seems that the year has flown by already. So much has happened and God has been so faithful as he continues to lead and guide us. The last weekend in September we had our 5th annual Women's Retreat at which time we had the joy and privilege of having our good friend Judi Hall from Calvary Chapel Sierra Valley/Loyalton, California as our guest speaker. She also brought with her Jan Litchfield who shared her testimony with the ladies. The Lord moved in incredible ways. Women came from different parts of the country with a mixture of many cultures represented there to worship the Lord, hear the word of God and sit at His feet. Truly an amazing time as He blended us together as one. Always an awesome thing that only the Lord can do.  Lives were truly touched and changed as the word went forth, the women had a great time and God was truly glorified. Thank you Judi and Jan for coming and blessing the women in Belize and thank you to all who had been praying for the retreat.

We had four young men from Seine bight come forward to get baptized. Kirwin, Shelston, Elvin and Darnell. So on Sunday the 9th we had a very special day. One of the young men got sick but we still baptized four. Rob Poole from the states was visiting that Sunday and while we were out in the water he felt God tug on his heart to follow Jesus in water Baptism. It was so special. Then Joyce who just started coming to our fellowship asked if we could baptize her on Monday morning. Many of us gathered together and went out to the sea in front by our home and had a very special Monday morning. It was a blessed week for us all. To see God move on the hearts of his people to obey him is incredible. Thank you Lord for allowing us the privilege of being a part of your kingdom and your work!

We are still praying for the Lord to provide a building and teams to help build in Seine Bight. A building project is way over my head and Pastor Rick Wilson in Truckee has stepped up to help with it. God bless that Brother!! We need prayer about our electricity situation also.  Our lines were taken down by the Electric Company and we have been paying a neighbor for the use of their electricity. I guess they have not paid their bill and it has been turned off. When we figure out what we are doing with the building on the lot then we will see about getting the electricity hooked up again.

We love you all and may God bless you,

Jim and Anna
