Dear Friends and Supporters of Tim and Teresia Hendricks (TNTI Ministries)
¡FELIZ NAVIDAD! We want to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas as we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. So many of us recognize Him as our Savior and yet do not give Him His place of LORD in our lives. What a shame! We miss out on so many precious and sweet moments with Him that cannot be found outside of His will. While it is Him who gives us the ability to ‘will’ and ‘do’ of His good pleasure we must respond to His unction to accomplish His will. May we find in this Christmas season a renewed energy of surrender to Him.
I waited until now to write because last night we finished our Bible Institute classes. We had 17 who took their test and finished the semester and we have about three who are coming regularly but basically to audit the classes. We are thrilled with the result of the Institute this semester and pray that God will continue to grow this ministry. Arturo Milchaus was a student but suffered a heart attach and could not return this semester as well as a lady who had to leave the city for several months. Arturo is doing much better now and the lady has returned in the last few days.
The families here in San Francisco where I live are struggling with attendance right now and we are working with them. One family has not had steady work for several months and have just begun a food preparation business. The food (tripe) is typically sold and eaten on Sundays and this has taken them out of the time schedule. We are praying. Another has had extended family problems that has taken them into the city of Aguas on the weekends. We continue to work with these families as well as others. In February or March we are to make a thrust again into the town where we live with invitations and the Gospel message. The funds necessary for this ministry is listed in our last prayer letter found on <www.tnti.org> under the current news button. Please visit our web site and browse around a little, especially in the current news. There we have available everything that we have written for several years. Pray for us. Donate as the Lord places us on your heart.
Remember that God has a plan for you and desires that you surrender to His plan. I believe that every child of God should be able to give a reason why he or she is where they are, doing what they are doing, and planning the future they are planning. Do you? May God bless you and grant you peace in the very active and personally involved Grace of God that He extends to you daily.
In His Service
