Winter 2009
Dear Friends,
We trust that the Lord is continuing His work in each of you, as He has promised to those who know Him by faith in Jesus Christ!
We are sending a letter of update to some who we hope will be part of a group that will labor with us in prayer as we continue to seek the Lord’s guidance and provision toward future work in Uruguay, South America.
In May of 2008 the Lord gave grace for me to finish seminary classes toward the Master of Divinity & Master of Church Music degrees from Bob Jones University Seminary. Following graduation Deborah, Elizabeth, and I traveled to Uruguay, where we were able to gather more information to help in planning for future ministry there. The Lord appears to have prepared us in specific ways for a door of opportunity that during this past year has opened wide for us in that country.
In late December we were accepted with EMU International as missionaries to Uruguay, where we anticipate serving the Lord by assisting the Uruguayan church in evangelism and ministry training. Since then we have begun to contact and visit Bible-believing churches that we think might be interested in joining us in this ministry. We hope that you will consider working with us by means of your prayers!
Please feel free to read our testimonies of salvation and of the Lord’s leading, posted here, where we expect to post periodic notes for those who may want to maintain contact with us in this way.
Please do pray for us. We have no hope of bearing fruit or of accomplishing anything for Christ’s kingdom without His provision of strength and help. Thank you!
In Christ,
John Mark and Deborah (and Elizabeth) Steel
As cold waters to a thirsty soul,
So is good news from a distant land.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, . . . "Your God reigns!"
