A Grand Welcome by the Nivanuatu's!

Wow! What an incredible expression of love displayed by the people of Vanuatu upon our arrival! From a gathering of the church leadership all around this country, to a typical Vanuatu wedding planned just for us! We were quite surprised, and humbled by the sacrifice of these people. Our first day here we will always treasure as a special memory.. Lots of pictures were taken.. and it was my joy to meet all the beautiful people that had gathered for the wedding ceremony that first night! Love these dear people already and am looking forward to the next 6 months!

T.S.I. Needs YOU!

Do you have a burden to reach the lost? Are you willing to give of your time and resources to help the work of God go forward? Why not join TEAM T.S.I.?! We are actively praying and seeking for individuals called by God to work on the foreign field, and help us to establish the works in T.S.I.

The fields are white and ready for harvest... we are praying that the Lord of the harvest would send forth laborers in Jesus name!

Happy 1st Anniversary

On April 25, 2009, I walked down the aisle to meet the man that changed my world in just one day! The song "What a Difference A Day Makes" is really our personal story! The Lord brought us together the last day of Because of the Times, in January 2009. After being in the same place 3 different times and neither of us knowing we would be there, we ended up going for coffee and the rest is history! Now one year later, I'm quite sure that I am the happiest girl on earth, and have an incredibly wonderful godly husband. I am forever grateful to the Lord for orchestrating our lives in such a way that we would meet at just the right time. Truly it was as I had always said, "the world is not too big or too small that the Lord could not bring us together! Now as we follow the leading of the Lord we have high expectations of the future and all the Lord is going to do! -Darla Sherry

About Face!

ABOUT FACE! The words spoken by the commander, and immediately the soldiers, in obedience turned the opposite direction from which they were going. No questions asked. They had learned enough to know that whatever their commander or general told them to do, they were in good hands, and he had their best interest in mind.

What if God were to do that to you? Ask you to leave your country, father, mother, familiar lands, to go to a land that you have never seen, or heard of. Moreover, you don't even know the end result! God spoke to Abraham and said just that! He left his country obedient to the Word, not even knowing where He was headed.

Over the last year the Lord began dealing with us, for just such a change. After many months of prayer, and seeking God, we have obeyed the Lord and have now made an "About Face". Completely the opposite direction of where we originally were headed, a short time from now we will be heading to the Middle East. A few months ago the change became official and we are now appointed to Turkey, Syria and Iraq.

We are excited about the change and what God is going to do in these countries! In fact, much has been going on and many doors have opened as we have traveled in the states for what lies ahead!

We ask that you would help us cover these countries in prayer, interceding on behalf of the nearly 150 million souls. In the midst of persecution, and political turmoil, God is going to have a people who know His name!

Pray for T.S.I. for a mighty outpouring of His Spirit!

Will Preach for Food!

While introducing us to speak to the church in Kentucky, Pastor Hale gave a very long introduction, then pulled this sign out from under the pulpit. It was so funny, the whole church including us were in stitches! Thank you Pastor Hale and church family, you were such a blessing to us.

And they Ordained Them and Sent them Forth...

Last week we were privileged to be at the World Evangelism Center. On Wednesday, during the chapel service, Jonathan was ordained. What a powerful service it was! The spirit of God was there in such an incredible way! At one such juncture Bro. Howell while speaking from the pulpit, left his notes and began speaking as the Lord prompted him in the spirit. His words were very timely, and he spoke some of the very things that we have been praying, fasting and believing for, as well as preaching. A short while later as Bro. Howell stepped from the pulpit to pray for us, the spirit began moving and our General Superintendent Bro. Bernard, unrehearsed and not according to the program also came and began to anoint us, praying in the spirit and began speaking some things into us. Truly the Lord was in the house, and we are being sent forth, with the blessings of our bishop, elders and leaders. Thank you to those of you who came and participated in this special time in our lives. We are looking forward to the future that God has for us, and the incredible things that He is going to do!
