Field Focus
Uganda - Tim & Jeannette Joyner
Feb 1, 2010
Many new children were contacted through the 5-Day Club at Open Door Baptist Church in Uganda. With great sadness, Tim and Jeannette Joyner reported that little 5-year-old Rhoda who faithfully attended each day was killed the following Monday in a hit-and-run accident. The Joyners have had good visits with Rhoda's unsaved parents and have provided them with a Luganda Bible.

The death toll from Haiti's earthquake may reach 200,000. The dead and dying span every age group - each person with an eternal soul that will live somewhere forever. Undoubtedly there were those trapped in the rubble who had received a gospel witness. In that window of time before death, I trust that many turned to the Giver of eternal life. Attention now focuses on the injured and starving. Our missionaries are engaged in meeting these needs through the generous gifts to the ODBM Haiti Earthquake Relief Fund. This fund has been established to help provide food, medical aid, and materials for rebuilding. May this tragedy and ensuing demonstration of compassion open many Haitian hearts to the Lord Jesus Christ who heals the brokenhearted and sets the captive free!
