Missions:

April 11, 2008

The Lord allowed me to return home from South America with the joy of knowing a new UnveilinGLORY (UG) regional director and international trainer is now in place. Ike Rhyu and I traveled to and conducted trainings in Ecuador, Peru and Argentina with the express purpose of accrediting him as a trainer in G3.

Ike is a vice president with the Seed ministry and has been a missionary from Korea to Mexico for many years. We welcome him to the international team. This means that UG now has three internationals acting as directors and trainers: Peter Hidayat in Asia, Andy Barnard in Africa, Ike Rhyu in Latin America, and as God enables more will be added around the globe.

A ministry of multiplication is sought in order to disseminate the UG message and ministry world-wide. Many others are representing UG in various regions and prayer for them is encouraged. Please consult the Prayer Calendar for updates on global operations and personnel.

Of special note is the trip of Bob and Debby Sjogren to Australia for the next two weeks, and the ministry of Mary and me to Taiwan and the Philippines (which for me will include a trip to the Middle East) over the next two months. Mary plans to return to the US on May 10 and I plan to return on June 5 after which Mary and I will celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary.

Another important directors' meeting in Richmond is scheduled for late June, which for me will be followed immediately by a trip to Colombia. The Lord has allowed me to travel to Indonesia twice this year to work primarily on the G3 flip chart, twice to Singapore to conduct SuperDoc and G3 trainings and once to the Philippines for the same purpose. The goal is to transfer ownership of the UG ministry to capable and passionate internationals as soon as possible.

Thank you for your support of this ministry. Many more opportunities are opening and as God permits I hope to make the most of them for God's global glory specifically. Your participation continues to be a source of great joy and satisfaction in the Lord for Mary and me.

With gratitude,

Jim and Mary Thurber
