NTM - New Tribes Mission | Planting Tribal Churches

We want to thank our Lord Jesus Christ for His faithfulness to us and for your gifts, prayers and support. Because of you, His Body, we have just completed our first semester as staff members at New Tribes Bible Institute!

Here is a picture of the 2012 Graduating Class

As you made know we have been living in a dorm within the New Tribes Bible Institute… WELL…, we are moving out of the dorm and into a townhouse on campus during the month of June.

So we thought we would share some prayer requests:

- We are supposed to be moving in a couple weeks to our permanent housing.

Please be praying for us as we transition one more time. Downsizing is never fun or easy!

Also pray for our kids as they have to sort through their stuff again to make it fit. Chloe and Ellie have to share a room and it is going to be small.

-We also have a few more purchases to make and they are pretty BIG ones. We need washer and dryer, oven and a grill.  If you would like to help us with this you can send a gift through our website or mail it to us directly.

A praise is that a staff family here replaced their refrigerator and is letting us use their old one, so we will not have to purchase a new one at this time!

Summer traveling

We are still not at the MINIMUM recommended support level so we will be meeting with churches, small groups and individuals this summer. Please pray that our team will grow and that God will be glorified as we share HIS ministry with others.

-Tori is going to college, which means she will be moving out this August.  This will be another BIG change for our family.  We don’t even know all the things we should ask for you to pray about but I know none of us are looking forward to her leaving. THANKFULLY we work at the college she is attending so it won’t be as difficult as if she were leaving the state or something.

In Christ,

The Bennett family!

Helping to reach the unreached with the Good News of Christ!

I can’t believe it! April is here already! It seems like we just left Corning. To think that we are in our 4th month of living in Waukesha is mind blowing.

I know that time does seem to go faster as you get older but this is ridiculous…

But the truth is we have been here for four months and God has been amazing! If it wasn’t for you, my family and I would not be able to get to experience God here in ministry at the New Tribes Bible Institute.

The guys that I get to work with are fantastic! They both desire to have and to continue to have a vibrant walk with Christ and to share it with people. Dave Schroeder, BJ Templeton and Ben Morrison have been an incredible encouragement to me as well as to our whole family.These guys have already influenced me to desire to have an even deeper more intimate walk with Christ, of which I am eternally thankful.

The challenge of this ministry: what do the young guys of today struggle with and how does a walk with Christ give victory over these struggles? (these struggles are, honestly, not just with young men either, but with all of us who want to walk with Christ)

What would you say if someone honestly opened up to you about their struggles in life… not just finances, but future plans, personal relationships, a desire to marry, family problems, etc.? Where would you go to find the necessary help, strength and encouragement that they need to continue on in an intimate and personal walk with Christ? Have you found an answer that satisfies all of them? Have you found the answer to these questions for yourself?

The encouragement: God’s Word is Truth! God never fails, Christ is All-sufficient and the Holy Spirit is here to strengthen, guide, direct and teach all believers. So, knowing those truths, each day is a joy and privilege because we get to see fellow believers responding to the Spirit and to the Truth of God’s Word. There simply is nothing more exciting then seeing a fellow believer walking in the Truth and enjoying their walk with Christ.

Thanks you so much for responding to God and for encouraging us through your support and prayer! You are in our prayers!

WE hope that you are finding that Christ is ALL-SUFFICIENT!

March 18, 2012 — 75 degrees, Milwaukee Zoo and ALL SMILES!

Chloe brought her camera… glad she did… the rest of us forgot.

we figure it’s just another day at the office for this guy…

…already working on his tan.

March has turned out to be a real surprise as far as what we expected. It’s March supposed to be cold, wet and snowy? Believe me, we are not complaining at all! In fact this weather has given us all the opportunity to get outside, play Frisbee with students, the kids discovered a rope swing and a place for hammocks.

Each month we are here, we are encouraged by the fact that God our Creator, who spoke this world into existence, is concerned and active in our lives; but not in ours only, in yours as well!

God desires that we all get to know Him and share Him with those we know.

We hope that you are finding God to be your Comfort and Strength.
