Morrell Update


Things have been going well recently. I am in school, but will be done by mid August. Brie is currently finishing another semester of schooling for her Master's Degree. We've been on the fundraising trail recently, and have enjoyed seeing how God works through the lives of the church body.

A couple of weeks ago, after much prayer by Briyana and I, we felt God was leading me to leave my job to focus on fundraising. This was a huge step-out in faith on our part because we would become a single income family, but God was faithful in his provision. Two days after I put my two-week notice in at my job, Briyana received a letter in the mail informing us she received a scholarship for her schooling paying roughly half of her tuition until she graduates. This was an amazing blessing from the Lord, because we weren't expecting it. We didn't even apply for the scholarship. It was absolutely God showing us his provision and encouragement toward us. God is good!

We have not only seen God work in our lives, but also in the lives of others around the world. Just last week, I read a story from an individual that is in Haiti and working with One Mission Society. Here is his story.

"Sunday I was in Vengione Vital's chuch in Port-au_prince and before anything at all had happened, the Deaconess who was to lead the first song asked if anyone had come that morning to accept Jesus as their Savior. People started flowing to the front of the Church. No preaching, no singing, no urging…just the Holy Spirit moving among people in need. It is a fabulous day to be working in Haiti!"
- Richard Brown

It's exciting to see how God is working throughout the world. If you are interested in learning more about our ministry, please contact us and we would be glad to share with you. Also, if you know of anybody else that may be interested in hearing about our ministry, please pass on those names to us.

God Bless,

Brent and Briyana

  1. Brent,
    This is terrific!
    It is visually appealing, well worded, it easily links with OMS and MFM and, of course, provides us with a marvelous tool to follow you in ministry.
    Jim and I are privileged to be a part of your financial and prayer support team.
    Blessings,
    Marti
