Freddy and Paula
Cooper are missionaries to the Dominican Republic. Before going
to the DR, they served as missionary associates to Costa Rica for
over two years and served as missions’ directors in their church for
ten years. They have participated in and led short-term missions
outreaches to various countries since 1985.
In partnership with the national church of the DR, Freddy and Paula
will organize outreaches to Haitian sugarcane workers and assist in
construction projects. They feel that God is leading them to the
sugarcane plantations in the Caribbean in order to reach a lost and
deprived group of people for His glory. Many of these fields have
sub-standard living conditions, no medical care and have no
educational system for the children. Most of these people are
without hope and have little chance of ever leaving.
Freddy and Paula will also provide teacher-training seminars and be
involved in Latin American Childcare through construction and
teaching.
They are blessed with two children, David and Jeff, and six
grandchildren. While home itinerating, they are living in
Trussville, Alabama. If you would like to contact them for a
service, you can call or email the following: freddy.cooper@agmd.org,
(205) 427-3806,
(205) 527-9555. Thank you for your prayers and support.

Doug and Ramona, Meredith and Luke Jacobs
have
just returned from the remote nation of Nepal. It is a country
of striking beauty and lovely people contrasted with a lack of
sanitary infrastructure and water so polluted that to drink from
the streams is a sure path to affliction. The Jacobs’s have
crossed those streams and climbed the mountains to reach some of
the most remote and unreached people of the world. A nation
once noted for only a handful of Christians is now into the
100,000's of thousands of believers. This is a triumph of
eternal proportions.
The story of the Doug Jacobs family is truly
one of the most exciting of our time. We are proud they belong
to the Alabama District. Through the amazing grace of God, the
hearts of the Jacobs’s reach into the heights of the Himalayan
Mountains, the highest in the world. Yet, God's love goes even
higher than those highest mountains. If you would like to
contact them for a service please email
dougramonajacobs@gmail.com

Joil and Leah Marbut
are modern day Missions marvels. Their heart for the remote and
unreached is unsurpassed in the South American continent.
Facing disease, crossing foreboding rivers into the unknown and
lifting up the banner of Jesus who shed his blood on a rugged
cross is their daily bread.
The Shuar
Indians deserve the Gospel no more nor less than anyone else.
Yet, less was the bitter portion, which they drank for
centuries. Few tribes were in any greater darkness until the
Marbuts’ shined the Light of the Gospel of Christ into their
sin-captive souls. The Marbuts’ not only tell the story, they
live the story, which unfolds into a brilliant example of God’s
love and grace. The picture they paint with their lives echoes
through the Ecuadoran jungles, Jesus saves, Jesus saves. Let’s
get them back soon for sometimes darkness does not wait but
turns to death. You can reach them to schedule a service by
email joil.marbut@agmd.org
or call 205-301-0996. |
