May Report

Dear All,

I want to thank those who sent us support during the last two months. This has given us some breathing room financially for a couple of months. The Lord is so good and I know He will bless you for your help to us. We continue to be in need until we have paid off our debt to the mission so we would appreciate your prayers and donations. Also please pray for many from our Bible studies who have undergone serious operations and/or are bedridden. We also have a large number of youth coming to our Bible studies now and we view this as an opportunity to help them to grow spiritually. When I am transporting them in our big van they often ask really good questions and it gives me an opportunity to give them answers and advice. I am starting my Bible study in Galatians this week which will run through the summer. After that Juanita will teach Titus and Philemon. Then I plan to teach a topical series on a number of issues and questions called "A Lot O Wishful Thinking These Days". I will also be adding topics specific to island church issues like the passing around of handkerchiefs for healing in Chuukese churches and teachings of the World Christian Gathering of Indigenous Peoples who are saying that island people can worship their former "supreme beings" as God, etc. Please pray for these studies that they will be a big help to people. People from our Bible studies often pass around the notes we give them to others in the islands. Recently one of our Bible studies attendees came back from Chuuk to report that he had met a man there from another denomination who was urging him to get a book by Juanita Simpson. When he told the man that he is a regular attendee at the Simpson Bible study the man told him that he was very lucky to be able to do that. We got a big smile from this story. We would also appreciate your prayers for Rose's brother Roger. He has undergone a number of serious operations on his neck and is still in a lot of pain. He can no longer work so they have been forced to sell their home in Alaska and move in with his wife's parents in Pennsylvania. They will need help moving in August and I would like to help them but do not have the funds to fly to Alaska and drive their vehicle the 4300+ miles from there to PA. Please pray that if the Lord wants me to be able to help them that I will be able to do so. I also have a number of things in August that a pending such as a trip to the Marshalls and my 40th Faith Academy high school reunion.

2 John 1:3 Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.

In His hands,
Sandy Simpson & family
