BAPTIST NEW CHURCH MISSION

Seminole Update

May, 2005  

Dear Praying Friends,

May started with a trip to a hospital in Tampa to visit a Seminole lady whose lungs had        been bleeding for an unknown reason.  Her husband had been by her side for weeks in          the Okeechobee hospital as well as at the hospital in Tampa.  She passed away in her          early fifties, not long after our visit.  Her death reinforces to us that our lives are only         vapors that are quickly gone and that we must be about our Father’s business.

Through the month of May and into the early part of June, we have been greatly        encouraged in our ministry among the Seminoles.  Laurie and I were able to lead an Indian  
lady to the Lord.  She has two children and serious marital problems.  We have been praying      for her husband for several weeks and trust God will save him and restore their         marriage. A Seminole couple traveled with our family to Virginia for a wedding and spent         a  few more days with us as we visited some of our supporting churches. 

Our family is now in Tennessee as this letter is written and I have been having cell             phone  conversations from here with a lady (a member of our church) and her son (in his      early 20’s) in Idaho.  He desires to be saved but feels he must more fully understand            faith, repentance and other aspects of salvation.  Please pray for him as well as his girlfriend       and their little daughter.  We are also making contact with and presenting our ministry to  to some new churches and trust our support will rise to the necessary level.

We would also ask that you would pray for Joel that his application will be                    accepted at Clearwater Christian College.  He believes that is where God would have him       begin his college this  fall. There are  many more exciting  things to tell you  regarding the      ministry at Seminole Bible Baptist Church, but I will save that for our next prayer letter       which I must write not many days hence! A sincere thanks to all our fellow laborers who
serve faithfully in their churches, who sacrifice and pray for us.  You are an example of         what it means to be about our Father’s business.

For Christ and the Seminoles,
Bill Blomberg and Family
