The Ohio Independent Baptist, September 1994

, Ohio Women ITEM#l I trust by now you have all received and returned your mailing list/data base ques– tionnaires for the Church Planting Ta k Team. I apologize for their late anival . We have been computer- izing and updating the OWMU mailing list and it took longer than I had anticipated. That along with a very busy schedule resulted in the late mailing. A big THANK YOU to the youth group at Norton Baptist Church for stuffing and stamping all those envelopes. I hope you have added the men of the OARBC Church Planting Task Tearn to your prayer list, and pray for them regularly. ITEM#2 As you begin your fall women's missionary meeting schedules, please remember to pray for our state project and remind each other to "fill tho e quarter folders .'' Our goal is $6,500, but ladies, I believe we can meet the entire need of $7,000. The fol lowing is an excerpt from the June prayer letter from Mark and Debbie Seymour as they were preparing to return to the Chad . It is a prayer they ask us to join in praying with them. "...Father, when Mark was asked by the Chadian brethren to bring th e diskettes here fo r printing their hy,nnals in five different languages, we had no idea who would typeset these fo r printing or how we could afford the $7,000 proj ect. We gave these problems to you in PRAYER. These ..,,.,,ere no proble,ns for you! Dear God, you provided so,neone to t) 1 pese1 the five hymn books and you planned that the Ladies of the (Jhio Wo,nen's Missionary Union would raise the ,noney for tht s projecr.
