“Faithful is He who calls you, who will also do it.” I Thessalonians 5:24

Greetings in the wonderful name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We rejoice in His goodness and faithfulness to all who put their trust in Him, and we give thanks to Him for you.

I really don’t want to say much about all of the things that are going on here at the home office because this month we are singularly focused on Mark’s upcoming India trip. Things here continue, busy as usual, and I will give you an update on that next month.

Mark has experienced some difficulty in getting all of the details finalized for this Conference, but Praise God, they finally are settled and we are in full sail mode. The venue has been reserved. Advertising has begun. The flyers and posters have been printed. Translation of teaching notes will begin in the next few days.
In the last several months, Mark and I both have had a tremendous increase in communication from our brethren in India. They are looking forward with great anticipation to the continuation of these Leadership Conferences we started so many years ago. These Conferences are still a very vital part of the preparation and training process for our fellow laborers on the Indian field.

Despite the fact that the demographic numbers never really seem to change much, our Indian brethren tell us that the work continues to grow. That’s a good report.

I don’t necessarily want to say that we are in a state of urgency or panicked, but time is of the essence now.
To date, we have received $100.00 towards Mark’s trip, leaving $4900.00 to go.

The most urgent need is for his airfare, which is $2500.00, so that we can get the best possible price. The longer we wait, the more costly it is going be. Then, the balance will need to be in no later than April 15th.

We invite you to be a financial partner with us in this endeavor for the increase of God’s Kingdom in India.
Thank you for your faithfulness in prayer and giving through all of these years. Your partnership has been, and still is, integral in all that we do for His glory. We pray that God’s blessings will continue to abound over you as you faithfully serve Him.

Because there are over 4.4 billion people in the world who still need Jesus, I remain

Yours in missions,



Mary Ann Cassidy

“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 ...
