 Greeting and salutations from the south of Mexico!   Our desire is that you all have had great open doors of utterance during the holiday season. God gives us wonderful opportunities to witness and lift Him up at certain times of the year, what a blessing. Some one asked me if I really believed Jesus was born on the 25th of December, my reply was that perhaps not, but the fact that he was born is indisputable, and if the world wants to take a moment to recognize that, I say we should be there with a ready answer for the hope that lives in us. We had a busy end of year. We inaugurated our new building, which we spoke about last letter, we hope you enjoyed the pictures. Then in December we began planning for a Christmas Cantata called the Truth about Christmas, it was a great drama that had a lot of folks serving the Lord. From the little kids that came as the little shepherds and angels, to the choir and then many others who played a role in the drama. We had over 20 first time visitors and several hands up at our invitation indicating a need for salvation. It was a really great night to lift up our Lord.   No sooner than we finished up with that and a group came on a Missions Trip in the first week of January. 11 brethren came down form our sending church accompanied by assistant Pastor Kennedy (a dear friend of ours) and we had a week of much evangelism. We went out to our own village church and Pastor preached and they gave every child a pair of shoes which we had arranged names and sizes beforehand. We had 4 first time visitors with a few hands up to receive Christ. The next night we went out to a new village where we are asking the Lord’s direction about. There was a group of kids that came to the center of town’s ball court, about 60 and almost all their little hands are up at the invitation. I have a table with 3 doors, 3 things God cannot do, which is a great tool to witness with. My table was busy all night, with a few of our men working it with me we saw 15 adults receive the Lord as Savior. 2 years ago, we went to this village and had a campaign, but the lockdowns came right after, and we never had an opportunity to follow up. A lady that was saved 2years earlier at our first visit there came, and we talked with her and her husband. Damien and Mirna want us to come out to their house and hold services. They said they will invite their friends and family to hear the gospel. So pray for us on that front, we plan to go out there before January ends.   We want to thank some churches that have been a big help as of late. Stillwaters Baptist Church in Idaho gave us an offering to print our own tracts and today I placed an order for 10,000 tracts! Bible Believers Baptist in Texas came to our aide for the 2nd time and gave a generous offering for our second-floor project! Then our own sending church has again given towards our building needs. In February we plan to start on the upstairs rooms for Sunday school and other children’s ministries. We never cease to be amazed at the provision of our great God who is faithful to meet our every need and more.   Sending Church:                                                                                                                  Support Address; Open Door Baptist                                Pastor Jason Murphy                           Word for the World Baptist Ministries 177014 44th Ave W                                                                                                  PO Box 849 Lynnwood, WA 98037                                                                                           Rossville, GA 30741-0849

Dear Praying Friends, We still are having record attendances with 260 this Sunday (187 adults and 73 children).  We have been averaging around 250 since the end of the summer, about 50 more than we did at the beginning of the year.  Joseph's van route had nineteen.  Six kids unexpectedly got on at the first stop.  I baptized this Sunday a couple that were saved off that route this August in our absence.  Franco, a civil engineer, and Guadalupe, a nurse, started coming in their car; and now still come in the car, but the wife rides back in the van so that their two young kids can participate in the program.  We are contemplating changing the van route into a bus route.     Another engineer saved lately is Eleno.  A retired military engineer, he was invited by a couple of retired military nurses in our church and was saved my last Sunday before we took our trip to the States.  We has later baptized in our absence.  I got to meet and talk to him last Sunday night at our celebration after Oscar's ordination service.     Oscar is now on staff and will be taking charge of the teen group; eventually the RU program after he is trained for it (he is coming as a student now to experience the program); and will be preaching at the mission that we plan to start services in on October 9th.  He also takes care of maintenance of the facilities and runs any errands that I need done.   We at first were going to rent a place for the mission on his route, but I decided it would be better to have it a more central location where most of the families from the three routes in Naucalpan can attend for midweek services.  We found a much larger social hall for only 80 dollars a month more and that can hold 200, plus a class for children, and also has a kitchen and bathrooms.   We started our Bible Institute with 14 students, the largest group since 2007.  We have seven guys and seven women.  One of the men is from a church in another state of Hidalgo from which he is traveling back and forth.  We are offering five courses, plus one of Schreiber's courses online.  I only have to teach four courses for eight hours, one of which I share with the kids of jr. high and high school for their Bible class.   Besides that and preach in chapel once a month (we have four preachers now), I am basically hands-off from the school.  I sometimes do opening exercises and take care of whatever discipline problems the last fifteen minutes of school, do some administration, and am right now in charge of training for the cross country race at the end of September.  After that, PE will be split between the teachers.   Please pray as we gear up to take another group of 40 prisoners on Saturdays for the addictions program in the prison.  We will need more men to go with us. That will make over a 100 prisoners we will be working with.   Please also pray as we begin this coming week to put 3,000 New Testaments into homes every week.  (We have already put 500 NT's into homes during our Saturday morning soul winning.) I will take a lot of coordination and a lot of people.  We have about 50 people involved.  Pray that God uses the sowing of the Word to reap souls in the future.   Thank you for your prayers, Clint Rardin

March Prayer Letter Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. Hello and thank you so much for your prayers. I know you pray for us because we consistently get to see the Lord provide accordingly. This past month we were able to send out more discipleship materials to national pastors. We asked you to pray about the printing ministry especially in regards to printing John and Romans booklets and we thank you for your prayers. I believe that the Lord is putting things together. A Pastor told us that they will send us six staplers for assembling John and Romans. Our Sending Church will be giving us the finances to purchase a guillotine trimmer to cut the John and Romans. Lord willing we will be receiving our first batch of John and Romans to assemble (approx. 11,000) in a few weeks. Will you please pray that the Lord will guide us to a location that we can rent for the purpose of assembling John and Romans. This location can also double as a classroom for our institute as well as a fellowship hall for the Church. This coming month our Church here is planning to take a short term missions trip to the state of Mexico to give out tens of thousands of scripture portions and gospel tracts to people walking from Mexico City to the city of Chalma. There are so many people that are in bondage to false religion and superstition. We are going to place in their hands the gospel of John and Romans with a gospel presentation. Please pray for souls to be saved, for the Lord to work in the hearts of our Church people and also for our safety. Bible Institute continues to go well. Please pray that these people will put into the practice the things that they’re being taught. “Wealth of knowledge does not atone for want of practice.” Please continue to pray for our safety. We were recently side swiped by a Semi Truck while on our way to a Church service. Thankfully no one was injured. A person was shot and killed recently near an Independent Baptist Church here while they were in their evening service. Also just the other night after our Church service we were dropping a woman and her daughters off at their home and we heard gun shots from the next street over. Please continue to pray for our safety. All for the honor and glory of Christ Jesus, Sincerely, Chris King and Family Please Pray • For the Lord’s blessing over our Institute and Printing Ministry. • For our protection and safety. • For the Lord’s blessings over our upcoming Church missions trip. Answers to Prayer • Safety and protection. • Spiritual growth of our Church Members. • The Lord’s provisions regarding our needs to assemble John and Romans booklets.

February 1, 2024 Dear Pastor and praying friends, Good morning from lovely Deutschland. We started January off with a bang, quite literally as Germany is big on New Year celebration and fireworks begin at midnight and go into the wee hours of the morning. From where we live, we can see a beautiful firework show and not leave the comfort of our home. Thankful to celebrate another new year in the place where God has called us to people that are dear to our hearts and truly like family. Not only did we welcome in another year, we welcomed a new sweet baby girl into our church family. There were some complications with mother and baby, but thankfully they are getting better and stronger day by day, and will hopefully be in our church services again soon. So thankful for this little blessing that we get to love on and point to Jesus alongside her parents. We started our men’s prayer breakfast and ladies Bible study as we took a break during the holidays since it was such a busy time. We also heard from our landlord that once again God answered our prayers and we get to stay in our building until 2025. We continue to look to see what else is out there, but praying God will give wisdom and direction as when and if we need to move. We ask for your prayers as Patrick will take a very short furlough in April for 3 weeks to the West Coast to raise additional support and to hopefully see other supporting churches in the area. Pray God lines meetings up, and especially pray for Michael as we will be staying back in Germany and he is not away from his dad much so this will be an adjustment. Thank you for your prayers, love, encouragement and financial support. We couldn’t do what we do here without you supporting us and we are very blessed to be where we are at because of your faithfulness to support us and our ministry. May God bless you this year. Thank you and God Bless! The Wolfes Missionaries to the US Military in Germany Luke 12:48

India Project — Pastors Conference Once again, the Lord gave us safe, uneventful travel and a great team of men for our annual conference. Every year, it seems, the Lord’s hand is on the meeting in a special way and this year did not disappoint. Many thanks to Pastor Samples and his son, Joshua, Pastor Zacharias, and Bro. Fennell for their excellent messages. And thanks to Bro. Fennell for putting so much work into preparation, planning, logistics, etc. To God be the glory! Graduation for WorldView Institute is March 10, and James and Toree will return home for the summer. Asang Khongso Project (Myanmar) I am thrilled to report that I received the first copy of the New Testament! Holding it in my hand brought me to tears. What a joy to hold the first copy of the Scripture for this people group. They prayed for over 60 years to have the Scripture in their own language and God used WorldView to help them get it. Praise the Lord!! The printer just shipped the NT’s to eastern India where the Myanmar team will pick them up and transport them into their community. They are scheduled to arrive in about 10 days. Please pray for safe transport. Madi & Lhukonzo Projects (Uganda) Our associate, Anders, is doing well raising support and will soon be setting a departure date to serve on both the Madi and Lhukonzo Projects. We are preparing to print the Madi John & Romans for distribution to the community. The Lhukonzo team is making great progress and we are grateful for the support for this newest project. Runyankore Project (Uganda) Back-translation portions of the OT are ongoing and this is one of our final checking steps. We anticipate continuing this for the next several months as we work toward completion of the Old Testament. Persia Project (Armenia) Nathan & Alicia returned to the field recently and Nathan had the privilege of teaching a 2-week module class, NT Survey, in a Bible Institute in northern Armenia. They are now settled back into their home in Yerevan. goworldview.org Ken, Linda & Emily Fielder 3860 E. Main St. | Danville, IN 46122 317-410-4600 fielder@goworldview.org March 2024 Tibetan Project (Nepal) Lloyd’s intense commitment to language learning and his amazing progress is a great blessing. He is now working on his third language which is the target language for our translation work on this project. He is getting very close to the point where actual translation work can resume. Our goal for that is September. Please pray for this team and the possibility of adding one of our WorldView Institute graduates as a new team member on this project. Liangmai Project (India) After a short visit back to India for the purpose of relocating our translation team to a safer, more stable area, Wangrai and Michele are back in the USA to continue their furlough through mid-June. If you are interested in having them share the ministry, please contact us. They are doing a great work in Manipur and I know they will be a blessing to you and your church. Family News Emily continues online college classes with Pensacola Christian College. She is also working toward Red Cross lifeguard certification so she can apply for a work scholarship position in the college recreation center. With plans to be living on campus this fall, the August departure date i s looming very large before us. We (Dad and Mom) are going to have a very hard time letting this girl go. Linda says, “I’m not crying all the way home, I am going to the beach.” My response was, “I can cry at home or on the beach, but I’m going to be a basket case.” Please pray for us! Your part i n our ministry still humbles us daily. We thank God for you and pray for His blessings on you.

Hello to all and thank you very much for your prayers. Your prayers are truly invaluable to us. It is very encouraging to know that you are praying for us. Since our last prayer letter we have been very busy. We had one man get baptized. We finished our first semester of our local Church Bible Institute. As a Church we made our first short term missions trip where we distributed thousands of John and Romans booklets to those making a pilgrimage to a Catholic landmark. We have also had many people in the Church make very good decisions. They are hearing sound Bible teaching and preaching and then responding by faith in obedience. There is nothing like it. I can’t go into great detail but we have many many incidents in the Church right now of people making very good choices in obedience to God’s Word. In regards to our family, Katelynn graduated from High School. Sydney got braces. Ethan turned 13. Lillian has lost her first two teeth. Lots happening around here.  I recently put out a post on social media asking people to pray. We had such a wonderful response to this post with people who are praying for us. I was away from our home and Sydney was having terrible abdominal pain. Christy needed to take her to the emergency room which would normally be stressful anyway but she is still insecure with her ability to communicate in Spanish especially in stressful situations. Thankfully another missionary family nearby took them and helped tremendously. They initially said that it was apendicitis and would need to do surgery immediately. However, they have since ruled that out. Sydney is feeling better however we need to conduct some more tests to be sure what is happening with her. Thank you so much for your prayers. Others have asked about our vehicle situation. We have a personal vehicle (minivan) that we were using on our Church missions trip when the transmission went out. The mechanic is still working on that. We also have a 15 passenger van for ministry that was struck by a semi several months ago. The Lord has provided the finances for that repair through His wonderful people and hopefully that repair will be underway in the near future. We also received a guillotine cutter that will be used to trim the John and Romans booklets in our Church. We currently have 11,000 signatures waiting to be assembled by the members of Iglesia Bautista de Valle de Santiago. Please continue to pray for us. Your prayers are truly invaluable. All for the honor and glory of Christ Jesus, Sincerely, Chris King and Family
