Greetings!
Thank you for praying for the Marshall Islands.
The Lord is doing something special
We just don't see it yet!

There is no doubt that the Lord is using this fuel crises to bring about something special that we don't see yet. The crisis drags on. Please don't stop praying for Steve and the team, and for the Marshall Islands.

"Do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord, no matter what happens. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so you will continue to do God's will. Then you will receive all that he has promised." (Hebrew 10:35,36)
 
Here's what's happening at the moment
·  The Marshall Islands have been given extra fuel. But only
   enough for a few more weeks until the end of September,
   and it's only for government use.
·  Thanks to generous donors, a wind generator and solar
   cells are on their way to Majuro. These will allow The
   Change 104.1FM to broadcast at least a few hours a day. 
It's always a great battle
when planting a new radio station for the Lord

God's number one enemy (the devil) will do everything he can to stop God's Word being broadcast to reach His isolated Pacific Island people. The last thing He wants is people having access to God's Word on a daily basis.
And one of the devil's main weapons is discouragement. So I have been praying for encouragement for Steve and his family.

Please continue praying for Steve and the Clark family
·  Pray for their encouragement
·  Pray for their protection
·  Pray for their personal support
·  Pray The Change 104.1FM will soon be on the air,
   touching the hearts of many needy Marshallese people
·  Pray Steve and his family and the staff will soon be
   rejoicing as they see God's victory over these difficult
   circumstances
Steve Clark is a blessing
A man who keep his eyes on Jesus
no matter what is happening (or not happening)
around him.
  This is from Steve's recent email . . .
"All is well here in the Marshalls and God is still on the throne and saving souls.  Internet has been spotty [he means, more emails get lost than get through!] . . . In the middle of a national crisis God still moves.  Praise the Lord!  We are moving forward with alternate power sources, working with UCB Pacific Partners and others . . . [We have heard that the government] managed to raise some funds for one more shipment of fuel . . . we cannot confirm that information at this time.  However our contacts have let us know to prepare for blackout conditions sometime in mid September to early October. . .

I will tell you one thing though, I am so glad I do not need electricity to preach the Gospel.  The churches here have rallied, prayed and are not swayed by what they see.  Praise the Lord.  Please keep the Marshalls in prayer. . .   We are still in the state of emergency in the natural but in the supernatural, all is well!"
Graham Carter "I waited patiently for the LORD to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the pit of despair,
out of the mud and the mire.
He set my feet on solid ground
and steadied me as I walked along.
He has given me a new song to sing,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see what he has done and be astounded.
They will put their trust in the LORD.
(Psalm 40:1-3)
