Written to his wife during one difficult time
in China – “We have twenty-five cents – and all the promises of God!”
(J. Hudson Taylor)

Hey friends-

a mini update…..

SUMMER

summer camp season 2010 just finished up, and it was another great one! GOD moved in big ways (that’s what He does), and hundreds of students gave their lives to Jesus. I’m thrilled to see what GOD will continue to do in this generation, and I just pray that our ministry and songs can be a small part of people catching on FIRE for JESUS to shake the nations for His glory.

INDIA

Today I’ll be getting on a plane with 21 others to go to Bihar, India – the poorest state in the extremely impoverished nation. PLEASE PRAY FOR US. THAT IS THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THIS EMAIL. God has blessed us with an opportunity to build an orphanage for these precious people, but I know that this opportunity will not come without opposition. Satan hates what we are doing. There are nearly 100 million people who live in Bihar, and less than 1% of them are Christians. There are radical Hindus there, who may not care too much for what we are doing. Please pray that God will give us great BOLDNESS, WISDOM, and LOVE as we declare the gospel of Jesus Christ. He is the only Way.

Thank you for your prayers. I will write when I return.

For the Glory of God and the people of Bihar-

Matt

Happy Birthday today to the hottest momma on the planet lauren papa!
