Jesus Every Day in June

May has been a productive month.  We have a new distribution point in a store here in Columbia.  We have many New Testaments and other materials being taken from a dry cleaning establishment run by a Korean brother in Burlington, MA.  We refreshed the supplies in three other places in Massachusetts.  There is so very much more that we can do but we don’t have the finances to buy more materials just now.  Please pray that God will supply some who will give $25.00 a month to purchase 10 DVDS each month.  If ten people could do that regularly, we will be able to distribute 100 DVDS each month.

As you think about distribution of God’s Word in written and video formats, please pray for four Hispanic men who received DVDS on the life of Jesus this past month.  It may be some time, if ever, that we see them again but there are wives and children involved with three of the men so please ask that they will receive God’s Word and be converted or built up if they already know the Lord.

God has given us a productive time consulting with a small church.  They are becoming more established with a good, strong leadership team.  They are requesting the Lord to encourage them financially and with the addition of five new families this year.  Jed will continue to consult with them for at least a few more weeks.

Counseling and writing are producing some good results and the preaching and teaching opportunities are profitable.  Should you be able to recommend Jed to come and preach in a church or teach on leadership, family, holy living or other subjects, please let him know.  He is seeking to help whenever and wherever he can.

The other big news is that Jed will be returning to Bolivia, SA in August to teach and evangelize especially among the Trinitario people.  This is the people group among whom Jed’s older brother, Joe Snyder ministered for over 40 years.  Joe, with his wife, Elna, will travel back and once again be the formal interpreter for Jed during his teaching.  Already 20% of the funds for the trip have been received.  Thanks to each donor.  The ten day trip will require about $2500.

Our work in the Philippines with Ken Rose and his family needs additional support as well.  Ken has been creatively seeking to be a tentmaker, but he is limited due to the economy there and his efforts to make money distract from the great ministry needs.  He needs a new motorcycle, about 50% of the cost of that has been given.  If you can help Ken and the ministry and you pay US taxes, the contributions are fully deductible from federal taxes.  Make contributions to Jesus Every Day Ministries and include a note or send an email explaining how you desire the gift to be used.  Please send all gifts to the address at the top of this page.  As you may recall, they are also enlarging their church building with a Sunday School class room.
