The month of October was a very packed month for the traveling Tingsons! This past month, we traveled more miles than we’ve ever traveled in a month—we traveled a whopping 5,656 miles! The journey was an arduous one, but the Lord allowed us to see many beauties of His creation that this blessed nation has to offer!
We started the month in Orting, Washington, at a Missions Conference at Orting Community Baptist Church. Next we spent the Sunday with Central Coast Baptist Church in Marina, California. That same night, we were able to present digitally to Tucson Baptist Church in Tucson, Arizona. Praise the Lord for technology! From there we traveled to Peach Springs, Arizona, to be with Hualapai Baptist Church. In between meetings, we had the chance to visit Baptist Bible Translators Institute, and we got to catch up with a few missionary families who we’ve become friends with on our deputation trail. Our next Sunday was spent at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Longview, Texas. After all the traveling, we decided to take a little break in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. We celebrated Rhys’s and my birthday. Thank you for all the birthday wishes, cards, gifts, emails, and text messages! After our time there, we traveled to Franklinville, North Carolina, to preach for a revival service at Clear View Baptist Church. That night, we decided to drop in at Liberty Baptist Church in Durham, North Carolina. I was given the honor of presenting our ministry for a few minutes. I was also given the opportunity to teach a class and go soul winning with the teens the following Wednesday, as we had to cancel our meeting that night due to Elin having a food allergy. (This is the first allergic reaction she has had; please pray that the doctors are able to figure out what she is allergic to.) We are grateful for one of our supporters, Fellowship Baptist Church of Durham, North Carolina, for allowing us to stay in their beautiful prophet’s chamber that week. We spent the last day of October traveling to Montgomery, Alabama, for our next meeting.
We would like to thank our new supporters from this past month: Lewis Avenue Baptist Church of Temperance, Michigan; Grace Baptist Church of Surrey, British Columbia; and Emmanuel Baptist Church of Longview, Texas. Thank you for your investment in seeing the lost saved in Australia!
Please continue to pray for us as we continue our deputation trail on the Eastern side of the U.S. in November. Pray for our election. Please pray for Mindy’s visa to be processed soon. Thank you and may the Lord bless you!
Your servant in Christ,
Garry Tingson
