Dear Pastor and Praying Friends,
“STANDING AT THE DOOR OF THEIR HEARTS”
REV. 3:20
It is amazing to me how God works. We have our daily routines, but God has His eternal plan. Pastor Richa was
blessed as God’s plan unfolded before his eyes. He was preaching during chapel to the children at the school in Batey
#5. He shared with me how he prayed and asked God to open the hearts of the children as he preached to them. The
invitation was given and not one from the school came forward to be saved. But, there were 5 children listening
outside the window whose hearts were open to the preaching of God’s Word. They came and ask Pastor Richa if they
could be saved. We praise the Lord that God was “STANDING AT THE DOOR OF THEIR HEARTS” when they
opened unto Him.
HANGING BY A THREAD
Brother Louie was saved in 1998, in the second church that was started in the Dominican Republic. Since that day he
has prayed for his friend Ti Gout (Tea Goot), which means Small Amount. Ti Gout wanted nothing to do with the Lord
as he was deep into voodoo. But Brother Louie continued to pray, asking God to save him. While HANGING BY A
THREAD on his death bed he called for Brother Louie and Pastor Richa. Within minutes Ti Gout was saved. Brother
Louie’s faithfulness in prayer was rewarded with the salvation of his best friend. Pastor Richa said that they stayed
with Ti Gout and rejoiced with him over his salvation decision until his home going only 3 hours later. Thank God
salvation doesn’t have to be worked out over time but is received the moment someone accepts Jesus Christ as their
Savior. (Rom 10:9-13)
MARY’S UPDATE
This month, when Mary’s blood work came back, the results were not quite as good as we had prayed for but were
still not bad! Her hemoglobin went from 13.7 to 12.2, the hematocrat from 39.8 to 36.8. Even though her red count
went down a little, the doctors said that was not uncommon, and they are still in the lower normal range. Her
platelets jumped from 124 to 136 which they were excited about, and her white blood cells remained the same at
3.5. The doctors want them at least 4.0 but were thrilled that they did not go down. Then finally her absolute
neutrophils, which is the part of the white blood cells that fight off infection, went from 1.6 to 2.0. So we are
rejoicing that God is still working His miracles. The doctors want all of her counts to be in the normal range for
three months straight before they let us return to the mission field. So please keep praying, Amen!
Your Servants For Souls,
Bro. Bob and Mary Johnston
