Missionary of the Month Frank & Tammy Roe

ABWE Canada

Greetings from Canada. The leaves are changing and we can feel in the air the first hints of what is to come. With fall we begin the heavy travel schedule with Frank traveling across Canada speaking in school chapels and in churches. In September we returned

from the Philippines teaching at the Word of Life Bible Institute. In November we will be at the Word of Life Bible Institute here in Ontario to teach the Book of Acts. This will be Frank’s 30th time to teach the book.

Thanks for praying for us and our ministry.

Prayer Requests The busy fall season with travel and safety. - Gone 70% of the time from October to mid-December. Frank’s step-mom in FL. She had a heart attack and developed pneumonia. She is 89 and the recovery is very slow. The upcoming Acts class in November/ December. Wisdom in making some ministry decisions. (New ministry car, winter and spring ministry) Good health over the winter

and Extend the Love of God (Mark 16:15)

HELP NEEDED IN THE CHURCH NURSERY

Thank you to those who have volunteered to help in our nursery, but we are still in need of one more worker on the 3rd Wednesday and a back up person who is willing to fill in on a

5th Wed. or if one of our regulars is unable to be there.

Per our nursery policy we need 2 workers each time our nurseries are open.

Please see Sandra Willis or Kristi Martin ASAP if you are willing to help in this

important ministry of our church.
