Dear Friends,
The Lord continues to enlarge and define the role of our missions ministry worldwide. TSC Missions is now focusing on specific target areas through five distinct ministries:
OnCall: Medicine with a Mission received its first medical outreach team back from Guatemala last month. This team made up of medical professionals traveled up the Rio Dulce River where they treated native Indians that in most cases have never had medical or dental care in their lives—certainly not coming to them in the jungle.
BrickThink: Building Homes for Those in Need. This budding ministry has been exploring the best way our volunteers can assist local ministry partners with building projects for the homeless and destitute.
ChildCry: A ministry to feed hungry children was launched in October 2007 and has grown to sixteen feeding programs in less then one year. The feeding programs range in size anywhere from ten children to eight hundred children, where their daily food needs are met.
Anchor Projects and World-Wide Ministry Support, our long-term commitments to evangelism, discipleship, humanitarian aid and community development in target areas where the need is great, continue to be supported.
Short-term evangelistic teams have returned from Alabama, Colombia, Egypt and Zambia this year, and more teams will be leaving soon to various locations worldwide.
These outreaches are providing food, shelter and medical care to those who need it most. It is the love of God shed abroad in our hearts that compels us to go to the nations and make a difference. We are witnessing the wonder of God in these nations. It is nothing short of amazing. Praise be to God!

“So David and his men came to the city, and, behold, it was burned with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters, were taken captives. Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep. And David’s two wives were taken captives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite. And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God. And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech’s son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David.
And David inquired at the Lord, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he answered him, Pursue: for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all” (1 Samuel 30:3–8).
David was just a youth when God first appointed him to rule and reign as king over Israel. The prophet Samuel was sent to the house of David’s father Jesse, where he singled out David from among his brothers. He poured oil on David’s head, which signified he was God’s appointed king.
