Dear Pastor and Church family: March 30, 2024 We send you warm greetings from the Dominican Republic. We are so thankful that, just as Jesus sent His disciples to a lost in dying world upon His resurrection, He has also sent my wife and me to serve Him in the Dominican Republic. “Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” (John 20:21) On January 16, 2024, there was a terrible fire in our...
Dear Pastor and Church family: March 30, 2024 We send you warm greetings from the Dominican Republic. We are so thankful that, just as Jesus sent His disciples to a lost in dying world upon His resurrection, He has also sent my wife and me to serve Him in the Dominican Republic. “Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.” (John 20:21) On January 16, 2024, there was a terrible fire in our home. Since the house was made mostly of block and cement, it was not completely lost, like it would have been in the states, since the houses there are made out of wood and sheet rock. Praise the Lord, although my wife almost got stuck on the second floor during the fire, she was able to get out. After the fire, because of different issues with the administration of the house, we were forced to have to move. It was very hard to find a home that we felt would be safe and close enough to our church. But, praise the Lord, He gave us another house to rent! We moved into it and have been sleeping in it now for three nights. It is much closer to our church than we have ever been before, and close to stores, and pretty much anywhere we would need to go. Thank you so much for your prayers during these last couple of extremely hard days for us. We are also so very thankful for those who sent us special offerings to help us with the fire damage and other issues with the abrupt move. A couple of weeks ago, Bro. Gary Sprunger, our Director for the Caribbean with BIMI, came with Pastor Mike Whitt, from the New Life Independent Baptist Church, of Hurdle Mills, NC, and a group of men from his church, to be with us to help us lay the foundation for our new Sunday School building. We were able to get a lot accomplished, and we thank them so very much for their great help. For the next phase of the project we are praying that the Lord would provide us with $20,000 to get the walls up and the ring beam on the building. If the Lord would allow for you to help with this project please send your offering to: Missionary Steve Sidler, BIMI, P.O. Box 9, Harrison, TN, 37341, - Sidler Sunday School Building. Please continue to pray for all of the different churches the Lord has allowed us to start, with all of their different problems, projects, and needs. We are so thankful to the Lord for giving us the great privilege of serving Him here, and for you being our co-laborers and friends in the ministry here. God bless you!. Your friends and servants in the Dominican Republic, Missionaries Steve and Nohemy Sidler
