October-December 2023
Dear brothers and sisters,
Wow! This year has flown by. In October the Maulucci family were working almost everyday of the month in the west of country. I had the opportunity to work with them for a week. We were able to be in many towns and villages giving out the Word of Life. Praise God we had some good conversations with a few as well. The Lord can give the increase to the seed that was sown. We were in 220 villages and small towns and gave out 25,1458 John/Romans during the month.
November was less active in the streets. However I did manage to go to two Turkish villages with Bro. Ali. He speaks Turkish and is a local Pastor about 20 min, away from us. He loves the Lord and is passionate about getting out the Gospel.
Hope you had a good Thanksgiving. We had a delicious Thanksgiving meal that Missy made and took the opportunity to give thanks to the Lord. Also that evening at church in Karnobat was a time of praising and Thanksgiving to the Lord…. even though Bulgarians don’t have such a holiday. Thanksgiving to God is common to all that hope in His name “Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright, Ps. 33:1.
I have started preparing for another furlough from the first week of May till September 2024. All except 4 Preachers so far have confirmed my request to report back to them. We will, Lord willing, report to supporters that we haven’t seen either since deputation or 2016. The plan is to be in 40 different churches, maybe 42, if it all works out in 4 months. Pray about this with me please.
With the help of a Danish man, that we met when providing aide to the Ukrainian refugees, we plan to make an updated video presentation for you all. We are still hoping and praying for he and his family’s salvation.
Kensey, our oldest daughter, will be flying from Pensacola, FL. to be with us for a month. She is supposed to arrive in Istanbul on December 15. I ask you to please pray for her upcoming travels.
I am excited to see what the Lord will enable us to do for Him the remaining of this year and in 2024. God bless you all! Laboring in the field, listening for the Trumpet!
Love in Christ Jesus,
Bro. Danny Kessler and Family
