Nathan and Rachel Allen “The harvest is great, but the workers are few. So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask him to send more workers into his fields.” Financial Partners Update -1 Really Cool!!!
No really. We are so excited about some financial partners that are no longer supporting us! WHY?!
Keeping Focus: One sows and another reaps… – SO TRUE!!!
Recently I have found myself becoming quite the representative for Wayumi of all things. Who knew that being the summer program director would lead to such grand and glorious adventures during the “off season” I have been having a blast making phone calls and being put in touch with those already interested. It has been such fun meeting with Pastors, Youth Pastors, youth leaders and youth groups. I even have some potential upcoming opportunities to go with our Michigan NTM Rep to some of the churches he will be visiting to talk about only my current favorite thing on the planet – WAYUMI!!!
But today I got an email that really put some things in perspective for me. It wasn’t a long email or even intended by the author what God ended up using to impress on my heart.

Thanksgiving
This is a note we received from our leadership this week:
“Thank you for the part you play in life at NTBI. Each member of the Body serving in an area the Lord has gifted you in. The Lord only knows how all of this fits together for His glory and for eternity. I guess we are all doing what we do by faith, trusting the Lord to make something out of it.
We know He does…after all the Baga Fore are hearing, the North Wahgi are hearing, the Siar have heard…scores and scores of other tribes have churches in their villages and missionaries studying language and culture because of what the Lord has done here as well as there. May the Lord excite our hearts once again as we consider and give thanks for what He does all around us all the time.”
Now I thank you for your part in getting the gospel to the ends of the earth!
NTBI August Update

Well we have made it back from Wayumi and are in the full swing of things here. Since our last update we have moved back to our home in Jackson, MI from our summer ministry in Central Pennsylvania. We took a 6 day vacation to the U.P of Michigan – the only thing we do all year that is just for our family! Students have arrived back here to NTBI, registered, and finished their first week of classes. It’s been a busy month to say the least.

Financial Partners Update +4!
We are so excited to share about new financial partners in the last month – whether it is those who have committed to partner with us financially on a regular basis or first-time/one time donors. 4 more people have made that next step of partnership with us financially. Throughout the Word of God, we read how God provides for those who serve Him through other people. We are so blessed. We continue to look to God to provide for us and meet our every need!
Praises & Answered Prayer
Cool things are a happening thanks to the faithful prayers of our prayer partners! Here are a few…

The Good Samaritan named Charlie
Jesus tells a parable in Luke 10:30 – 35 to illustrate the answer to the question, “Who is my neighbor?” Wait until you read about my good samaritan story and my new neighbor. This is hard to believe but just amazing…

From: Greg Sanford NTM-US Director of Mobilization
I wanted to write to all of you to give you an update on the ministry of Nathan and Rachel Allen here at the NTM Wayumi Program this summer. Many of you know that they have been at Jersey Shore, Pennsylvania for a little over 2 months serving in the ministry here. They have been a real blessing and in reality we could not have accomplished what we accomplished this summer without them.
