Tony called on Friday morning, February 15th, (Friday evening for him) to report the results of the India Mission Trip. Kuala Lampur is the location that they all separated from each other at the beginning of the mission trip and it is the location where they all return to and give their praise reports. Tony Pearce, Ed Evans, Charles Jeffries, and Sherri Cone were 4 of the India Missionaries from Altus, OK. There were 57 people participating in the Mission Trip with the following results:
**4,682 Professions of Faith
**Many baptisms
Tony and Ed were given the opportunity to baptize some who accepted Christ last year on the mission trip. It is their custom to wait a year before baptizing.
A group of the missionaries headed home on Friday, February 15th, and will be arriving back in the US on Saturday. Sherri Cone will be home today, February 16th. The remainder of the missionaries, including Charles Jeffries, Ed Evans, and Tony, extended their trip to include a tour of the Taj Mahal in New Deli, India. They will be home on Wednesday of this week., February 20th.
Please pray for traveling mercies and good health for all of the missionaries.

God is moving in Kenya once more as always. In my area there is a lot of spiritual opposition causing me to pray even more. Today on Tuesday I had 16 professions in the morning. I preached at a school and had about 55 professions of faith. It was pretty awesome. Please pray against Satan because he was definitly opposing me the last two days.

On July 16th, Margaret Ortega received a call from Charles. He said there had been 120 Salvations at that time.

KEEP on Praying….. I will keep you posted.

All of the team, including Tony Pearce, Charles Ortega, and Nathan Webb, arrived in Kenya on time as scheduled. Everyone, including all the luggage (this is a big deal), made it to their destinations on Saturday. Tony, Charles and Nathan went to town to set up email accounts, get phone cards, and exchange money. While in town, Tony shared Christ with 2 who accepted Jesus as their Savior. On Sunday the team of 8 all went to churches to share the gospel and encourage the members. In the 3 churches where Tony, Charles, and Nathan served, there were no salvations, but Tony said they praised and worshiped the Lord with the church members. He said it was an awesome time! One of the team members had 18 pray to receive Chist. (20 so far)
Tomorrow each member will begin their journey with a driver and an interpreter. They will be sharing the gospel and preaching the “Good News”.
Prayer Request of the Team
-
Please pray for the hearts and souls of each person within hearing distance of each evangelist / team.
-
Pray for health, safety, and divine opportunities for each member.
-
Pray God’s Glory in all of it.
In Christ,

The word of God’s miraculous power is pouring in from Kenya, Africa. At this point, there have been over 8,000 salvations. Tony Pearce and Susan Slick visited a school today where approximatel 1,000 children made professions of faith in Jesus Christ. Is that awesome or what? Although the mission field is all around everyday, Wednesday will be the last day on the mission field in Kenya. The team will begin their journey back home Thursday morning and should be arriving at DFW at around 5:30 PM on Saturday evening. Tony sends his love and thanks for all of your prayers and encouragement before, during, and after the Kenya mission trip. I am reminded of the book, “Twelve Ordinary Men”, and how God can and will use ordinary people to further His Kingdom. Praise God he chose to use our very own “ordinary men” (and women) to encourage the people of Kenya, Africa and to preach the Good News of Jesus Christ.
In Christ, Debbie Pearce

The missionary team is on their last leg of the journey, but their days will be full until they leave to come home. There have been 5,941 professions of faith, 92 recorded rededications, and over 2000 bibles handed out. Some of the missionaries will stay with the same church and others started in new churches today. There is still much work to do and the harvest is plentiful. Pray for the team in the areas of travel, health, and mission work. They will begin their journey back on Thursday. The team is due to arrive back home on Saturday evening, but for some maybe Sunday evening. Anyway, by this time next week, they should all be back home. Then we can all share in their praises and stories of their trip to Kenya. Continue to pray for schools, villages, and the churches of Kenya.
I will update again when I get word.
In Christ,

Word from the Mission Field. Tony and Charles Ortega visited a school today with approximately 700 children. They estimated 600 of them prayed to receive Christ. Later that afternoon, they went shopping in a “wood carving” area. Tony preached the Good News and 11+ wood carvers prayed to receive Christ. All of this on their day off! What a day! About half the group has gone on a 2 day safari while the others stayed at the resort and did other ministry projects, shopping, and rearranging. All of them will be starting over on Sunday for another full week of ministry. God is good and is bringing in a bountiful harvest for the Kingdom. Please keep them in your prayers.
In Christ,
Debbie Pearce

Another wonderful day in Kenya, Africa. I don’t have numbers, but again, many were saved and made rededications. Tony and Susan will have the opportunity to go into the schools the next 3 days. Please pray for a move of God before and during their presentation of the gospel. Brother Jeff preached a funeral today with approximately 800-900 people present. Many talked of how he blessed them by preaching the service. Today was a bit more taxing for most of them in the bush, but still many victories were won for the kingdom. Tony said Carrie really had an awesome day evangelizing. Praise God.
Check back in a day or so; I will keep posting.
In Christ,
Debbie
