A verse that has meant a lot to me in recent days is Romans 11:33, “O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!” I am thankful that while His ways are past finding out, God can be trusted with every part of our life and service for Him. The mercies of God remain new every morning. Hallelujah!

Anchor Baptist Church just finished its annual Missions Conference. God blessed in so many ways. It truly was an international conference. There were Bible messages preached by men ministering in or from Canada, Peru, and Iran. By the grace of God, we ended up giving the most money to missions in a 12-month period in the 24-year history of the church. It is also a blessing that our son Caleb and his family have moved to Fort Portal, Uganda, with the hopes of starting the first independent Baptist church there in the first half of 2026. It is an honour to be their sending church.

Thank you for your continued prayers for my healing. The brain tumour remains inactive, but the effects of the sarcoidosis are still causing me several issues. I am receiving some new therapy (red-light laser therapy) for the swelling in my left foot. Praise the Lord, it helps. This progress is allowing me to wear my left brace again, which greatly aids me when I walk. Thank you for your continued prayers.

Becky and are both going through one-on-one discipleship with people in the church. Pray for Peter and Carmen. Carmen was saved and baptized in the last month. She is from a predominantly Buddhist family. Please join us in praying for their salvation. Last Sunday, Shanks and Meilio got saved! Meilio got baptized last night, and we are praying that Shanks will soon follow.

There are so many people moving to Vancouver from around the world. Please pray for labourers to come and help reach them for Jesus Christ.

God bless you!

Ben and Becky Turner
