 Greetings from the Great White North.

Here we go again. Record snow in November, barely any for most of December, now it’s piling up again. Such is life in Southeast Alaska. At least it’s never boring.

INDIA CONFERENCE
The plans for the India conference are progressing nicely. The conference theme is Living From Relationship.
The focus of the conference will be living a life of relationship with God as opposed to a life lived by formula and principles. The conference format is workshop based and each teacher will be teaching every day. The theme and focus of the conference allows for a broad range of topics and the teachers are free to pick the topic of their choice. The attendees will be given a list of workshops and allowed to attend those that pique their interest.

The daily schedule will include four meetings. Everybody will gather in the morning for a brief service of praise and worship and perhaps a little teaching. Then we will split up into workshops followed by lunch. After lunch we will return to workshops and conclude with an evening service of teaching and praise and worship.

We will also be spending a lot of time praying for those who are sick, those in need of emotional healing and those who simply want an encounter with God. Our hope is to foster a revival culture and our expectation is for the Father to show up in power.

Mark will be staying an extra three or four days in order to spend time with Bhalchandra and Vilas, making plans for future ministry in India.

We’re really looking forward to a great trip and just enjoying time with our brothers and sisters in India.

INDIA TRIP COST
Mark’s cost for this trip are expected to be about $4,500 and this will cover air fare, conference fees and in-country food and housing. Received to date: $600. Balance Needed: $3,900.

Thank you for prayerfully considering giving towards this trip.

 Please pray for each of the four teachers (Mark, Greg Stephens, Bill Paddock and Larry Koontz) that they will hear and communicate the heart of the Father with love, with power and with grace.

Thanks for all that you have done over the years to make it possible for us to go.

Yours for the Kingdom,

Mark and Julie Dyar

“And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen” Mark 16:20 The first order of the day is to wish you a very Happy and Wonderful New Year as you venture out into the new opportunities that await you. Some folks are wondering if the world will come to an end in 2012, as the Mayan Indians and others have predicted, but our faith is not in these predictions. Our faith is in the words of our Lord Jesus Christ who told us to “occupy ‘til I come” (Luke 19:13), and so we carry on in full assurance that He is with us and will be with us all the way to the end, no matter when “the end” occurs. LTI’S CALENDAR FOR 2012 IS ALREADY FILLING UP Mark leaves for India on February 24th, and we are expecting this to be a most fruitful conference. Please read Mark’s column for all the details. I have planned to be in Nigeria again this year in March. However, the date for the conference is not yet known, a

Uganda Trip Report

“ And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.” 2 Timothy 2:2 We arrived home on May 30th, safe and sound from a wonderful time of ministry in Uganda. KAMPALA - the capitol of Uganda, and the place where we ministered, is a most beautiful city. Originally positioned on 7 hills, now spilling over onto 10, Kampala is a lush paradise of tropical plants, trees and flowers, and home to some of the most beautiful birds I’ve ever seen. Although its location is just barely north of the Equator, its altitude of 4300 feet above sea level provides a moderate climate year round that is most enjoyable. The southeastern part of the city is on the shores of Lake Victoria, the world’s 3rd largest lake by area, Africa’s largest lake by area, and the largest tropical lake in the world. As a result, the city enjoys the benefits of breezes that blow across the lake into the city. My travels in Africa a

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 G reetings to you today. I thank God for you and trust you are enjoying the richness of His blessings in your life every day. A Very Busy Month The Blog At some point in every day I sit at my computer to write on my blog apassionformissions.org, becoming more and more skilled in doing this project. There are still a few more “construction” things that need to be done before the site is finished. I think everything will be accomplished by the end of this month. I am very happy with it and thank the Lord for this tool that will allow me to cast the net for new generations of full-time missionaries until He comes again. Some of the topics that are, or will be written about are: the vision for the blog, including Casting the Net with details;  The Need, The Call and The Preparation for ministry as a missionary; God’s desi
