Rev. Bud & Sarah Yoder
(The above picture was taken a few months ago
when the Yoders were on an ocean cruise.)
Unknown to many people, the staff and official board
of the Miracle Valley Bible College was making initial
plans to honor Sarah Yoder at its next Camp Meeting
on Alumni Day with a presentation of "This Is Your
Life."
This film presentation, along with very special
guests, would be honoring Sarah Yoder from the time
of her childhood in Colorado, her going to Miracle
Valley Bible College in 1958, her marrying Bud Yoder,
the birth of her children, and her ministry in Ohio.
Dr. & Mrs. Harter, representing Miracle Valley Bible
College, will fly to Ft. Wayne, Indiana Thursday and
then drive to Hicksville, Ohio where they will attend
Sarah's funeral.
Even though Sarah Yoder is gone to heaven, she will
be sadly missed by her husband, her family, her
church, and her many friends. Please remember
them in your prayers that the Holy Spirit will comfort
and strengthen each of them during the up-coming
months.
If anyone would like to give an encouraging word to
Rev. Yoder, you can reach him at 419-487-0800.
God bless everyone of you.

Greetings!
It is with deep regret that we inform you of the
recent death of Sarah Yoder.
Bud & Sarah Yoder are special friends to the Harters
and to Miracle Valley. They are some of the finest
Christan people anywhere to be found. They loved
and supported the work and efforts at Miracle Valley
for many years.
Recently, the Yoders and their church donated a
shuttle bus to the Miracle Valley Assisted Living
Home. It was driven to Columbus, Ohio last Friday
where it is currently being repainted before it is
transported some 2,000 miles to Miracle Valley.

| Celebrating 25 Years as Pastor |
| |
Bud and Sarah Yoder were the first couple to be
married in the tabernacle at Miracle Valley. Rev.
Peter Contreras, pastor of the Bethel Pentecostal
Church in Blue Island, IL served as Bud's best man.
The Yoders have faithfully served as pastors of the
Miracle Revival Center Church for the past 25
years.
Just last month, ministers and friends throughout the
country, and one missionary from Mexico City, joined
in the celebration with the Yoders as they celebrated
their 25th anniversary serving as the founder and
pastor of the Miracle Revival Center located on Lynn
Street in Bryan, Ohio.

College.
A special write-up in the local newspaper of Bryan,
Ohio informed the community of this special award

| Miracle Revival Center Church |
| |
"Part of the congregation of the Miracle Revival
Center Church located on Lynn Street in Bryan,
Ohio."
The congregation fills this sanctuary to capacity. No
doubt, a new facility will need to be constructed in
the near future in order to accomodate the church's
growing membership.
Everyone is encouraged to send a financial gift to
the Yoder Family to assist them with the hospital
expense that they have incurred. Due to giving their
all to the work of God, they did not have
hospitalization insurance. Please prayerfully consider
making a donation to help with this major
expense.
The Yoder Family does not know about our
requesting donations for their hospital bill. However,
we are sure this would be most pleasing to the Lord
that everyone who can participate in this special
endeavor do so.
Please telephone the Yoder's daughter, Elaine
Aguilar at 419-212-0913 to obtain the address to
which you can mail your donation. If you like, you
can also mail your donation to Miracle Valley Bible
College, PO Box 1620, Hereford, AZ 85615. Be sure
to mention your donation is for the Yoder Family.
Miracle Valley Bible
College will forward all donations to the Yoder
Family.
