Yes, We Have Been On The Move, Raymond & Naomi Burkholder Are Transitioning Out of Macedonian Teaching Ministry, and once again we are commencing a new ministry. Stay tune to this new website
It has been very humbling to hear the testimony of this Nepale pastor that since MTM began teaching this series there, have been a total of 11 new indigenous churches planted among these remote M_______m villages of Nepal. BLESSED BE GOD ALONE!!! At this most recent Cry of Ishmael Conference a pastor who had traveled a long way from a distant village begged me to come to his region of Nepal and teach this series. He said there is a large population of these people in his region. Thus, God continues to open the way to propagate His heart for this Gospel unreached people group.
After the three different conferences & three different locations on the same subject in Vietnam and after two-weeks of conferences, Raymond & Naomi Burkholder traveled on to Delhi, India and then we forwarded on to Sikkim State of India where we caught up with Jay & Amy Smoker who were prepared to serve as MTM guest teacher for our two conferences in this state of India. Our first event was a scheduled youth conference in Gylashing in Sikkim State of India April 23-26, 2024.
Ps. 68 clearly reveals when God Comes all needs are met and in vs. 6 we find in God’s Presence He sets the solitary (desolate or lonely) in families. And so it was on our MTM spring Tour in Vietnam and in India.
Chuck Colson said, “Every enduring marriage involves an unconditional commitment to an imperfect person.” Nearly fifty percent of couples in America reject the unconditional component and end up in divorce courts. This results, according to one data source, in a divorce every 13 seconds in America. This swells to 6,646 divorces per day and 2,419,190 per year. On the other hand, Nepal has only 1.2 divorces per 1000 marriages according to the latest figures I could find. So why should we hold conferences in Nepal on the permanence of marriage? Are we “preaching to the choir”?
