"For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen." Romans 1:36
    Greetings once again in the precious name of the Lord Jesus Christ.  We trust that all is well with each one.
    This past month the church here was able to place another article in the local weekly newspaper and we continue to trust that the Lord will use these articles to His glory.  As I have stated in other mission reports, we are emphasizing the gospel, with the present article being taken from John 8:25.
    The Australia Department of Immigration sent an email confirmation late this month notifying us that they granted our visa applications.  The visas are approved for a two-year period and are renewable.  We are very thankful for this blessing.
    It was also a blessing to receive our shipment of our goods that were in Papua New Guinea (but had been sitting in a Singapore shipping warehouse for a year).  The electronic things such as Cyd’s electric piano and our desktop computer both worked, for which we thank the Lord.  I am still waiting on the Risograph copy machine parts to arrive from the USA before I can fix it.  The crates of furniture and things from the USA are here in the country now,  but are going through customs and quarantine as required by the Australian government.  We hope that it will be released to us in a few weeks time.
    It worked out to be able to talk via a Skype conference call once again with the New Testament Baptist Church in Dover, TN and Brother Larry Lafferty during their mission’s conference.  It was a blessing to be able to have a brief visit over such a great distance.
    Sister Chat Madeira, who is a member of the church here, was informed this month that she has a malignant tumor in the eye socket area of her face and will be needing a major surgery soon to remove it and then reconstructive surgery.  We appreciate your prayers for her as the Lord brings her to remembrance.
    Thank you for your continued prayers, love, encouragement, and support for the Lord’s work in Australia and Papua New Guinea.
    Love In Christ Brother Frank James
