Dear Friends,
The Caudills at the Fundamental Baptist Church of Tingandogo, Burkina Faso.
Since our last letter we have traveled to and returned from Africa having visited two different countries and three different Macedonia missionary families while there. It was certainly a life changing trip that presented each of us with an opportunity to share the Gospel ourselves. I was blessed to preach sixteen different times for our missionaries’ church plants and meet several national pastors that I enjoyed getting to know personally. Cassie spoke in two different ladies meetings, one in which three ladies in Ghana trusted Christ as their Saviour. To God be the glory! We again want to express our thanks to those of you that helped with the expense of the trip. We are convinced that only eternity will reveal the fruit that will abound to your account as a result of the investment you have made. Thank you so very much. The Lord has kept us both safe and well, and we are tremendously thankful. Praise His good name!
We also want to thank you for praying for our reFresh week here at our Home Office that we hosted in June. It proved to be a very profitable week as a record number of our missionary families were both equipped and encouraged for the ministry that God has called them to do. Weeks like this are only a part of the services our board provides for the missionary families we are blessed to labor with. We would love for your family to be a part of the next reFresh week. If God has called you to go, we would love to help you get there! For more information log on to mwbm.org today.
Over the course of the last few years, as Macedonia has grown so has the need for expanding our meeting and training facilities. Currently, we annually host the Reach the World Youth Conference with over two hundred young people coming to our campus to learn about opportunities for missionary service around the world. We have also experienced cramped quarters during our training classes and meetings for our new missionary candidates. As a result of this our Executive Board has unanimously decided to build a covered pavilion to serve these as well as other functions. I have included a QR code on this quarter’s prayer letter which in turn will lead you to a short video explaining The Pavilion Project in much greater detail. Currently, we have about $112,000 set aside for this need and are trusting the Lord for the remaining funds to complete the project. Would you prayerfully consider what the Lord would have you and your church to do to help? Thank you for laboring with us.
Truly the hour is late, and the need to reach the world has never been greater! Therefore with your help and by God’s grace, Cassie and I continue by faith.
For the sake of souls,
June 2024
Dear Friends,
As Cassie and I write this quarter, we do so with grateful hearts. Our airline tickets have been purchased, our visas have been acquired, and, Lord willing, we will be leaving for Africa on July 8th. For those of you that have given to help with the expense of our next missions trip, we are very grateful. Since all of the trips we make like this are at our own expense, we honestly could not have made it without your help. Thank you so very much! We would also appreciate your prayers that God would keep us safe and well as we travel. We certainly desire to be a blessing to the missionaries we will visit as well as to the people we will minister to and share the Gospel with while there. Lord willing, we will be returning to the states the last week of July. Rest assured, it is our heart’s desire that fruit would abound to your account as a result of our partnership together.
We also praise the Lord for a wonderful “Reach the World Youth Conference” that was recently held here at our international headquarters in Hoschton, Georgia. We had a record number that attended the conference this year, and the Lord met with us in a very special way. Please help us pray that each seed that was sown would bring forth an abundant harvest of another generation of missionaries for God’s glory. We are already planning next year’s conference. Please mark Saturday, April 12, 2025, on your calendar and start planning now for your youth group to be a part. We hope to see you here!
These are certainly busy days at our home office as we are in the process of planning and preparing for our next scheduled reFRESH week June 17-20. This will be a week of preaching, fellowship, and teaching several of our missionary families on such topics as the power of prayer, husband/wife relationships, and culture shock. We are praying that God would work through these few days to encourage and equip our Macedonia missionaries to continue for the cause of Christ with a renewed zeal and fervency. Please join us in prayer to that end.
In closing, Cassie and I want to say thank you again for your prayers and faithful support. It was ten years ago, the first Sunday of May, that we stepped out by faith to begin deputation and raise the needed support to serve in the position at Macedonia to which God led us. I can attest to the fact firsthand that where God guides, God provides. He has used each of you to help supply our every need. We do not take that lightly, and we certainly do not take it for granted. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you. Therefore, by His grace and with your help, we continue by faith.
For the sake of souls,
