SINGLE MISSIONARIES? - WATCH A SHORT VIDEO BY PASTOR HERB HUNTER

LETTER FROM PASTOR PAUL REBERT
Several year ago as a youth pastor, I had the privilege of having a special young lady in the youth group. While she could be timid and often quiet, she had a heart to please the Lord and loved serving Him with the talents she had been given. As I watched God begin to cultivate in her heart a burden for the supremacy of Christ through foreign missions, her timidness grew into boldness for Christ. Today that young lady has prepared through formal training and practical, hands-on experience for the needy hearts of Honduras.____________________________________________________________________________
It is my privilege to recommend to you Ruth Coleman as a missionary candidate. Two things are true of Ruth that make her unique for this task. First she has been called and gifted by God and it is evident through her love for people and overwhelming burden. Her burden for the lost in Honduras is not fabricated, but God given. Secondly Ruth is a serious servant of Christ and has served the Lord wherever God has placed her. Whether it was as a teenager on a missions trip, church visitation, vacation Bible school, the church nursery, or in a secular job, Ruth has grown and served the Lord where she was planted. She is serious and has not allowed anything to distract, divert, or deter her from her God-given calling. Ruth is sensitive to the Holy Spirit, gracious in her demeanor, firm in her convictions, and compassionate for a world perishing in darkness.
I hope that you prayerfully consider partnering with Ruth Coleman as she endeavors to take the gospel to the needy people of Honduras. It will be a wise and lucrative investment in the kingdom of God that will pay dividends throughout all eternity.
For the furtherance of the gospel,
Paul Rebert
