July 2013

Thank you so much for your support of taking the gospel to rural Alaska. As I look over the list of people that faithfully give to Voice for Christ Ministries, I see many names that I recognize. It is an honor to serve with so many folks who have a passion to see the message of salvation through Christ go forth into these dark places. I thank God for all of you, and I want for you to know that your gift is making a difference in lives that will last for eternity.

Art Thompson,

Executive Director

June 2013

Praise God for hearing and answering prayer.

Our Board met on May 16 and 17 for the regular semi-annual meeting and because of such a full agenda, scheduled another meeting just two weeks later.

On June 1, 2013, the Voice for Christ Ministries Board of Directors appointed Mr. Art Thompson to be the Executive Director. Since Art and his wife already live in Nenana, he was able to start work early Monday morning in the VFCM offices. Please pray as he and the staff adjust their roles and responsibilities.

Please continue to pray for the Translator flight team and their visits to the villages. "Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless His holy name." Psalm 103:1 Rich Redmond, VFCM Board Member

     The first Translator Team maintenance flight flew to the village of Tanana on Friday, April 26.  Three members re-established a key relationship in the village and performed required maintenance, but had to return home due to poor weather.  There are now 16 translators remaining to be visited across our vast state.  

     As partners with us, I ask that you take a moment to pray for those who fly, maintain and evangelize while in the villages where our translators are located.  May God be glorified as His people and His word go forth! 

    Psalm 119:33   “Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.”

            March has been a month of opportunity for VFCM Staff and Volunteers to be able to learn and to grow.  Some attended John MacArthur’s Shepherd’s Conference, one attended the National Religious Broadcasters Convention, and our radio Translator Team received electronics training to be able to troubleshoot and repair equipment that is used in our ministry to specifically broadcast the gospel into remote, Alaskan villages. Thank you, dear partners, for sharing with us the importance of communicating the gospel message through this ministry.   Spread His fame today. 

         Matthew 9:31  “But they went away and spread his fame through all that district.”

      We are so thankful for your prayers and financial support at this time of year.  Presently, we are focused on building a solid team that can go forth into the villages where our radio translators are located.  Once there, the team will build relationships, share the gospel, encourage believers, and perform needed radio maintenance and repairs to keep Christian Radio on the air 24/7.  Please pray for the hearts of those who do not yet know Jesus as their Saviour and for the pilots and others who will partner with us. 

           “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”  Luke2:14
