TODAY ...

... 11-year-old Talya celebrated the Prophet Muhammad's birthday party 
at the Muslim school she attends; and, on her own accord, she took to 
school and distributed invitations to teachers for this Sunday's 
Easter Service at the St. Paul Union Church!

... 15-year-old Anna-Kate toured a friend around the Old City, the 
heart and gem of Antalya, from which Paul and his companions sailed, 
and in which is located the St. Paul Cultural Center.  The SPCC serves 
in numerous Christ-honoring ways both fellowships and folks from all 
kinds of backgrounds.

... 17-year-old Kristoff is returning from a week of short-term 
mission work in Morocco, where he experienced a stauncher version of 
Islam and assisted in construction work.

... Renata worked out with a good Turkish friend, who exercises 
'Muslim-style' (with her head covered) and who just finished reading 
the New Testament for the first time!  Renata also corresponded with 
new and potential staff members for Olive Grove 2008, took care of 
banking and payments for the St. Paul Cultural Center, and, as a 
result, asked me to please take a break from my work in order to write 
to you.  So, today ...

... I am pausing in the midst of Good Friday and Easter preparations 
to remind you that the St. Paul Center is a worthy and needy recipient 
of donations.  By this fall we plan to have a cushion in place to help 
the SPCC through difficult financial times, but currently the weakened 
dollar is causing a struggling and stressful SPCC situation.  We'd 
greatly appreciate any assistance you could give at this time.

Tomorrow may you delve deeper into the ocean of goodness that came 
from Calvary, and thenceforth may you 'soar in the sky' of 
Resurrection Life.

Joyfully laboring with you and for Him,

James Bultema
