MATTHEW28:18-20
2SUNDAYSUNTILMISSIONSUNDAY
In a modern age of skepticism
The sure look like backwards fools
They seem blind looking to their Creator’s vision
Like cavemen with primitive tools
Yet see the skeptic’s eyes glance through a prism
Conclusions bend and refract with time.
Anything goes until a skeptic meets criticism
No one can question the noise that they chime.
A Christian’s eyes stop at the written word
The black and white pages illuminate what is pure
No matter the challenge or darts that are hurled
The unchanging words of God produce the sure
Poem: By Richard Harp
So we have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well
to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day
dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts. But know this first of
all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation
for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men
moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God (2 Peter 1:19-21).

Mission Sunday and the Work in the South Pacific
and Cusco, Peru
The church here began supporting the work in
the South Pacific when Steve Vice met with our
missions committee to discuss the work he would
be doing in Micronesia. He had dedicated himself to
10 years of working there and the church here en-
tered into that work with regular monthly support.
After Steve and his family returned to the U.S. Joey
Treat and his family moved to Saipan to continue
that work. We helped in supporting his work that is
under the oversight of the elders of the Valdosta
Church of Christ in Lake City, GA. Joey and his
family are presently living on the island of Palau but
are involved also in working with the churches lo-
cated on Saipan, Yap and Chuuk in Micronesia. At
the present time the church in Saipan has 50 mem-
bers while there are 30 in Chuuk, 10 in Palau and 6
in Yap.
Our help in the work in Cusco is through our
support of Barton Kizer and his wife Allison. They
went to Cusco, Peru as part of a team that met at
Freed-Hardeman University. They first spent 6
months training at Continent of Great Cities in Dal-
las Texas. Then they spent three months internship
with their overseeing congregation Memorial Park-
way. They moved to Peru in October of 2010 to be-
gin their work. Since that time there have been 136
baptisms and there are only 1,129 members in all of
Peru. The church has averaged about 20 baptisms
each year. In addition to that they have seen many
of the young Christians setting aside their fears to
begin serving God. It was part of their plan to be
able to replace themselves with the Peruvian breth-
ren taking over the work.
The Kizers will be completing their mission in
Peru at the end of 2018 and will be returning to the
United States where their plans are to begin a His-
panic work. At the present time there are several
possible locations where they might establish that
work.
The work in each of these places is going ex-
ceptionally well and the hope for continued success
in the future is positive. While we were involved in
both of these works from their inception we had to
end our support when our contribution on Mission
Sunday was lower than we had hoped. Thankfully
we were able to begin that support last year.
It is our hope that we will meet our goals again
this year so we will be able to continue the support
of these great works. Please keep these brothers
and sisters in your prayers and let us earnestly and
prayerfully consider what we will give this Mission
Sunday on May sixth.
