ROMANIAN LITERATURE: The very first quarterlies to be printed in brilliant color have been delivered in Brasov! Several churches have already ordered and received quarterlies and will begin using them on December 7. Four thousand books were printed. Each church will pay an affordable amount for the quarterlies. These funds will be used to help with the next printing. We praise God for this accomplishment and pray that He will supply funding to print three books each quarter. Total cost for printing materials for three age groups will be about four thousand U. S. dollars per month. (Click here for more information and pictures.)

TO THAILAND: We will be working with translators, lecturing in seminary and helping Missionary Nicky Barnett during the month of December. Please pray that God will grant safe travel and a fruitful ministry. We hope to get translators started on children’s literature during this time. We will be working with translators in three languages there.
