M&H (serving in East Asia; 504 Cherees Way;

Dalton, GA 30720): Although this month has had

its fair share of grey, polluted days, our hearts have

been encouraged as we have shared the Father's

light. A few weeks ago, a national partner invited

us to an "English fell0wship" on her campus. We

weren't really sure what we were getting into. After

a bus, two taxis, and getting lost, we finally made it to the meeting with

a frustrated and anxious attitude. As we shared the truth, great

discussion ensued filled with helpful questions and personal testimony.

Our expectations were shattered as G)d was clearly working among us.

We were thrilled when a student expressed belief in the message. We

look forward to meeting with this new bel1ever and this group of

students in the coming weeks. Requests: Because our downstairs

neighbor is sensitive to noise, we will move our s3eker study to a new

location. Please ask that students will still come to the study and that

our relationship with our neighbor will improve. With only nine

months left here in East Asia, we are beginning to think more about our

life back in the states. Please pr@y with us as we seek G)d's guidance

for s3m1nary, jobs, and where to live. Praises: Earlier this month we

went to the government offices and had no problems renewing our

residency permits. We are thankful for the open doors and

opportunities we have had to share with over 30 students this month.

We are humbled that one of these students responded in f@ith. We are

looking forward to receiving a short term team during December and

are expectant for the ways G)d will us them in our city.

BJabc (serving in Northern Africa; 4551 Old Dalton Rd NE; Rome,

GA 30165): Thank you for lifting us up

regularly, your prayers are felt and very

necessary. Groups/partners - Asking

for our new groups to be fruitful, teach

others and understand multiplication.

Our existing groups have done really

well spreading the Truth and creating

other groups. Also, a new partnership

has developed with fellow believers,

help us to have wisdom in how to move forward. HG - We are looking

forward to meeting with a new group this weekend. Thank you for

asking the Father to give us a tight community to worship together.

Company - We continue to see and experience changes within our

company. Next phase will include people voluntarily leaving the field.

Please ask the Father to make it clear where people should serve.

Family - Last week our children recovered from a virus going through

the house, each day a different child was home. They are all well and

in school this week. J took a language assessment yesterday, we are

hopeful she will have good results. Also, with stateside on the horizon,

please ask that our minds and hearts will be fully here until we get

there.

Janna Plemons (working at Orphanage

Emmanuel in Guaimaca, Honduras, August 8-

January 2): Last week was a really hard week,

but this week is going a lot better. Pray for me,

especially during the month of December, as I

am missing home a lot since the holidays are

coming up. A praise for this week is that there are a lot of opportunities

for me to show the kids love. I’m trying to teach the kids that to get

love is to not just receive gifts, like most teams or volunteers do here.

So I’m coming up with a lot of activities to do with the kids instead of

them watching movies all day or just playing in the yard. Pray that the

kids will be receptive to this idea and that it will portray the idea of

love that I want to get across.

David, Kellie Crowe & Family (church planters w/ Greene

Community Church in Waynesburg; 417

Craig Run Road; Waynesburg, PA

15370): We have two community

outreach opportunities in the next couple

of weeks, two events the town asked to

help with each year. We are also in the

process of dividing our administrative

position into two positions -- which

means we will be needing to hire someone

to fill one of those, prayerful by first of week or so of January. We

also need to approve 2016 calendar and budget in the next few weeks,

pray that we will walk by faith and not by sight. Michelle Parham (answered the call to vocational ministry; 1812

Glenbrook Place; Dalton, GA 30720): DNOW

was a great time! Thank you for praying. Please

continue to pray for the students, that they will

continue to grow and be challenged! The

semester is shortly coming to an end, and I am

thankful for that, haha! Please pray that I will

not lose motivation in my studies! Please pray

that I will make Christ and time in the Word my

top priority. Please pray that I will be a voice of truth on my campus

and everywhere I go. Also pray that I will be content in Christ in every

moment! I love y'all!! Troy Poe (answered the call to vocational ministry; 556 Harvest

Way; Dalton, GA 30721): Thank you for the

prayers and encouragements! This past weekend

I had a great time helping lead DNow! It was

awesome to see God moving in the students’

lives, and it appeared He brought them closer to

Him and closer together. Please pray for the lives

that were changed and the decisions that were

made for Jesus. Also pray for the students as they

go out into the world and face the many struggles

of life. Please pray for me as school is winding down, and that I will

complete everything that needs to be completed well. Thomas, Paige, Elizabeth & Jacob Queen (our missionaries

in South Africa; Suite H17, P/Bag X9118;

Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, 3200): We’ve been in meetings from 10am-

9:40pm so we are tired. We are trying to

get everything planned for interns that are

coming in February before Christmas

break. We are moving forward on the

church plant and may have found a site. We are praying through that as

a team now. Ethembeni ministry is looking for us interpreters so pray

that gets in place before February. It will maximize evangelism on

house visits and help discipleship with interns. Jacob is in finals so he

needs your prayers. We are excited to visit our family and the church

family in a few weeks. “See you soon” never

sounded so good!

Mark & Gynnette Yoho (Fourth Watch

Ministry; 840 Mountain Loop Rd NW; Sugar

Valley, GA 30746): As another ministry year

begins to wind down we are shifting gears to

prepare for our season of street outreaches.

We just received a shipment of 10,000

November 18, 2015

as we continue to move closer to marriage. Please pray for the details

of the wedding day to fall into place with little stress :) I really

appreciate your sweet prayers. Thank you for praying!

Kristen Bowen (currently attending North Greenville University

with plans to do the Journeyman program with

the IMB; 7801 N. Tigerville Road, Box 2282;

Tigerville, SC 29688): Thank you so much for

your prayers. Please pray for me as I am finishing

out the semester and trying to figure out what to

do post-graduation!

Brian & Ashley Jones (student at

Southeastern Baptist

Theological Seminary;

704 Ridgetop Way; Wake Forest, NC 27587): Thank you for your prayers!! Brian and I both

have been sick lately (really terrible colds) and

have had car trouble this week. Thankfully, we

will be getting a new car next week so God’s

timing is perfect! Please pray for Brian as the

end of the semester approaches. Please continue

praying for our recent switch to student

ministry and for Gospel opportunities at work. Thank you so much and

looking forward to seeing you all next week!!

Josh & Hannah Bowen (seminary student at Boyce School/

Southern Baptist Theological

Seminary; 107 Fenley Avenue,

Apt Q3; Louisville, KY 40207): There are a group of three at work

(including me) that have agreed to

meet on Wednesday mornings

early at the office and do a Bible

study. We are simply going

through Colossians. I am excited

about this and wanted to share with all of you and ask for your prayers.

I feel like the reasons the Father moved us here are ever developing in

front of our eyes and so far they have not been at all the way I had

planned. Hannah and the kids are doing great! We love our church and

friends. There are so many encouraging families that are keeping up

with us and we are trying to do the same. We miss Dalton a lot, and our

familiar family at GLBC, but there is no doubt in my mind we are

where God wants us right now. Thank you for your patience and

continued prayer!

Christmas Gospel tracts and will begin to distribute them as early as

this weekend at an upcoming Christmas parade. Please pray for our

Christmas outreaches; they are a lot of fun and a great opportunity to

impact a lot of lives with the Gospel. Tomorrow, November 19 I will

be speaking at the Gordon Central FCA meeting. Pray for students and

teachers to be receptive. Also I will be sharing the Gospel at the Upper

Room Mission Christmas party on December 1. Pray for his outreach

and volunteers to come out and help, contact Wayne Snyder or myself

for details. Thanks so much. Blessings and Happy Thanksgiving.

Julie Parham (answered the call to vocational ministry; 1812

Glenbrook Place; Dalton, GA 30720): Thank you

so much for praying for Dnow! Many of us

experienced the Holy Spirit during our sessions and

worship; it was such a beautiful time with the

youth. Please continue to pray for our youth as

many of them made decisions to build a stronger

relationship with Christ. And I’m so excited we

have a new brother in Christ!! Continue to lift him

up. Pray for me and my school decisions; pray I will

trust the Lord! Also continue to lift up my grandmother in your prayers

as we share the Gospel with her. Love you all! Thank you for praying

for me and with me!

Bryan & Brittany Kelly (Boyce School/Southern Baptist

Theological Seminary; 315 Crescent Court;

Louisville KY 40206): The wedding was

beautiful! It was so great to be with family but so

very hard to leave. Pray for us this week as we

are back in the slump of missing family. With

Thanksgiving approaching it makes us a little

more homesick. WE FINISH IN 14 DAYS! Pray

that we would finish strong and trust the Lord

and His plan. It's still hard to think of not coming

closer to home, right after graduation, but, I know if that's where the

Lord wants us, He will open the doors and lead us there. Thank you for

the encouragement. We love and miss y'all soooo much. We are

praying for you all.

Chad Keeter (Navigators Ministry, Staff; 825 Gaines School Road,

Apt 219; Athens, GA 30605): I made it safely back to Athens. Thank

you for praying for my time in Orlando! It was a good time of

encouragement and being taught from the Word. Now that I'm back in

Athens, the semester is winding down very quickly. Pray that these last

few weeks before the break between semesters would be fruitful for

Ken and me as we continue to get time with and invest in the

sophomore guys in our ministry. Thank you for continuing to pray for

these guys. There have been evident strides in the sense of community

and buy in that I see among them. As a group, there is an increased

hunger for relationship with God and there's a growing burden in them

for the lost as well. Pray that in the spring semester these roots would

grow even deeper. I'd love to see 6 to 7 or more of them regularly

going with Ken and me to do evangelism on campus, reaching out to

guys in their classes, and having regular

quiet times. Pray with me that God would

bring this about. I love you guys; thank you

for your prayers! Emily Payne (answered the call to

vocational ministry; 1913 Beaverdale Road

NE; Dalton, GA 30721): Thank you all for

your willingness to pray for me! As the

semester is coming to an end, a lot of big

projects are starting in my classes. Please

pray specifically for the three group members I have been paired with

for a group project in one of my classes. All three are non-believers,

and two of them are homosexual. Pray that I will be able to share with

them the love of Christ, and that the Holy Spirit will speak through me

in this situation! I would also like to ask you to pray for Chad and me

For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, I do not cease to give thanks for you,

remembering you in my prayers, that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you

the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts

enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his

glorious inheritance in the saints. Ephesians 1:15-18
