Please send along with this form copies of recommendations from churches which will encourage
other churches to support your missionary work. There are churches which will not allow a
visiting missionary to speak unless a church recommendation can be shown. Since it is impos

sible for any one person to know all Christians in the world, this recommendation by a respon
sible New Testament church is a vital help in persuading others of your worthiness and the value
of your mission. Mission Services stands ready to help you inform HORIZONS readers about
your church recommendations. Since the church is sending you to the mission field (Acts 13:1-3)
and will help provide the necessary needs on the field, naturally the church should share the
credit in your missionary ministry. One of the ways that the church can do this is to share their
conviction regarding your missionary ministry with others. Certainly, their words will help
convince others regarding the worthiness of your work.

Please help MISSION SERVICES to

spread your news through HORIZONS, Packets and Slide library by sending your church recom
mendations as soon as possible. Thanks. Send what you have now, and the others later.

We first learned about El Paso Christian College this past Spring.

The college was in the final months of its first year of existance.
We wrote to Brother Bill Morgan, academic dean, for further partic
ulars.

As a result of an amount of correspondance , we made

a trip to El Paso from Boise for a meeting with the College


planning Committee meeting on May 25th. We were very much im -

pressed with the program, and

oportunities,

and subsequently

made plans to move to El Paso.

The purpose of El Paso Christian College is, like others , to


train young people for full time Christian service. In addition

to this, since it is located on the U.S. - Mexico border , it has


a unique opportunity in offering a specialized service to
missionary-minded students, or missionary recruits in

its

M.A.P. (missionary action program)the student not only takes

regular class-room work, but

has the privilege of working with

veteran missionaries on the field, in Juarez,Mexico (just minutes

away) or deeper into the interior of Mexico.

Thus he learns, experiences,

and observes first hand, somethings of the nature of foreign missions.


we are excited about this program and feel that It offers a

valuable opportunity , we are most happy to be associated with


it. The possibilities for evangelism in Mexico at this time are
tremendous.

People are hungry for , and-are turning to the

New Testament Gospel message.

Since the College is just a year old it is actually a missionary


endeavor.

It is necessary for the faculty members to

their support.

raise

Thus , we have been engaged in this , through

the summer months.

I will be teaching in the fields of New Testament, Christian Ed

ucation, Speech and Music. The latter will be my main emphasis


as the College grows and the student body increases

Dear Christian Friends:

We greet you from "deep in the heart of Texas",


busyI College started yesterday.

We are very happy and surely

We have not felt the cultural shock some do when coming here.

Actually we Amer

icans are the minority in El Paso. Possibly having lived on the desert before
and also having been in contact with the Mexicans ha.8 prevented this in our livest
We are gratefulI

We arrivecL^afely in El Pasds^June 22nd ^J^ot possession of our house and moved

iLnto iS^une" 26th.

Prior to ovoc arrival, and enroute here from Boise, we stopped in Rangely, Colo

rado, on June 9th and had a wonderful fellowship ^th the folk there. That af

ternoon we journeyed on to Denver where we were in D.V.B.S. at the Bear Valley


"iristian Church as missionary speakers. This was a real joy and privilege,
fe hold a veiy special place in our hearts for this church as we shared in its

beginning and were chartjsr>.inam^e3??,^ for six years before moving^, to Boi^e. While

Denver, we were aK t^ mSFSffloSous" contacts on behalf of our woiSc^ and

also, presented our program at the Westminster Church. We then journeyed on to


El Paso and began the seemingly endless, laborious task of getting settled in
our homeI

We thank God for providing a home we saw absolutely no way to buyl We did not
want to get an apartment as they were terribly expensive, and it would mean an
other move vflien we found a home. Through the help of the North Industry Chris-f

tian Church
home church) and friends, the earnest money was met;
then a second mortgage was prionvidM by a real estate broker we do not even laiowll
Several weeks were spent getting settled, painting, etc. and then we went to

North Industry, Ohio, (near Canton) for a D.V.B.S. there.

The children responded

well to our presentation, and enthusiastically learned "Jesus Loves He" as Jeny
tau^t it to them in Spanish. I still do not know it 11 What a joy to visit
friends and relatives we had not seen in years. We were also privileged to pre
sent our program during the Bible School hour in North Industry, and again at
the East Sparta Church and Perry Chuzvh both Sunday evenings we were there. We
headed back for the 1800 mile trip to El Paso August 12th and arrived safely

made knownl

Over and over our hearts have been lifted by the following scriptures from the

"Living Bible": Philippians 4^6-8

"Don't worry about anyttiing:

instead, pray

about eveiything: T^l God your needs and don*t forget to thank Him for His
answers. If you do this, you will experience God's peace which io far more won

derful than the human mind can understand. His peace will keep your thou^ts
and hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus." and from Rcanans 11:33-36
"Oh what a wonderful God we havel How great are his wisdom and kno^edge and
richesi

How impossible it is for us to understand His decisions and His methods!

For vdio among us can know the iidnd of the Lord? Who knows enough to be His coun
selor and guide? And iiitio coiiLd ever offer to the Lord enough to induce Him to

act? FOR EVERYTHING CCMES ERCM GOD ALONE. EmYIHING LIVES BY HIS POWER, AND
EVERYTHING IS FOR HIS GLORY.

To Him be the ^ory ^ermoreS."

We need your financial help desperately, and we need your prayers continuouslyl
Thank you so very much.
