Spiritual Birthdays

 One concept dominates this month of ministry for the Crow family: born again.  God has visited us with many professions of faith this past month as we traveled in meetings in different places around the country.  Thank you so much for your prayers.  

We have been in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and currently Ohio.  After a week and half more in Ohio, we head for Brooklyn, New York, to preach there.  Please continue to pray for souls to be saved in our meetings.

One of the greatest parts of serving the Lord in evangelism is seeing people saved who have been the object of prayer for some time.  This was the case in Semmes, Alabama, on a Sunday morning when a couple responded at the invitation.  The man knew he was saved, but his wife was unsaved.  The church had been praying with this man for his wife for some time.  It was glorious to see her trust Christ after hearing the Gospel preached.

Our equipment seems to be running well right now and all are healthy.  There is hope that we can travel for a while without having things break down.  Time will tell.

In the end of April, the entire family will be going to Gila Christian Ranch in Silver City, New Mexico, for a special work week ahead of camp.  We are looking to be able to take some friends from our home church to help with this project.  The goal is to redo some plumbing lines in the bathhouse, tile the showers,  and replace some damaged drywall.  Please pray that the right people will be able to join us, and that we will get everything done in the time we have.

Another item of prayer is a planned missions trip to Italy in the month of July.  We had to renew the children's passports through the US State Department and chose not to pay the extra money to have them expedited.  (They were expensive enough as it was.)  Please pray that they arrive in time.  Also of concern is the COVID-19 testing that still has to be done.  God knows all of that, and He is well able to work out all those details.  While in Italy, the plan is to preach in several churches in the country, as well as minister in a Christian camp to young people.

Thank you all for your prayers for our family.  Know that people are being saved, and many lives are being transformed by the truth of the Word of God.
