Prayer Letter/Ministry Update

We send our greetings to all of our Family and Friends

Laura and I are feeling a little like migratory birds who took the wrong flight. We arrived back in the U.S. on December 13 for a one year home assignment. By doing that we traded in long summer days for cold winter nights, white sandy beaches for snow covered lawns, and there was about a 45 degree drop in temperature! Over the past two weeks we have traveled to Indiana to pick up our two college kids, visited Peter’s Mom in Kentucky and traveled to Maryland to visit our daughter Rachel. While at home we have been unpacking and decorating and preparing for Christmas. If you would like to contact us, our new home address is 310 Maple Lane, Mansfield. OH 44906 our cell number is 567-241-1478.

Please pray for us as we begin the New Year. The first three Saturdays of January we will be at the Columbus Airport. Our son Nathan leaves first for California as he transfers to Simpson University. Peter leaves second starting his tour in Virginia. And Laura leaves third starting her tour in Maryland. We will be back in Mansfield again by the end of March.

We had a pretty exciting end to our term that we would like to share with you. Laura and I began an 8 week video series in our home the first week of September. As we approached the first night, we both were wondering if anyone would come. We had never before invited our non Christian friends to attend a weekly Bible study! Also it is unusual for Uruguayans to commit to anything for eight consecutive weeks in a row! But to our surprise and God’s delight seven of our neighbors and friends regularly attended our Bible study. We all enjoyed spending time together and talking about spiritual things instead of the weather. About half way through the study I began meeting separately with one of the men. Together we worked through a six week discipleship course which clearly presented the plan of salvation. Also, about ten days after the study concluded, one of the ladies who had attended the meetings asked to come over to our home. As she and Laura talked together, she prayed to receive Christ as her Savior. We were so excited that our friend had been born again into the kingdom of Heaven!
Thank you for your support to our ministry. Your prayers and your financial gifts given to the Great Commission Fund make it possible for us to continue to share Christ in a very secular country like Uruguay. If you are not presently giving to the Great Commission Fund we would like to encourage you to do so. Gifts may be channeled through the GCF by going on line to www.cmalliance.org . Or you can send a check to the Christian and Missionary Alliance, P.O. Box 35000, Colorado Springs, CO. 80935-3500. Please send your gifts in the name of the C&MA to the “Support of Peter and Laura Marshall”.
We hope that the New Year is filled with Christ’s richest blessings.
Peter and Laura Marshall
