Anderson 1st Assembly of God

MISSIONARIES OF THE MONTH

November, 2009

Rick and Patti Roberts

“Intercultural Ministries”

     Rick and Patti Roberts minister for the Lord in Philadelphia, Pa.  Their main focus is to reach the Muslims in the “City of Brotherly Love” for the Lord. What an assignment!

They both feel privileged and delighted to be missionaries to these precious people. New converts are being added each month and testimonies are dramatic.  Many converts are having dreams, visions and divine visitations.

     A sovereign move of God is happening now.  However, the spiritual warfare taking place is dramatic.  In the past few months, Rick and Patti have felt times of deep discouragement and loneliness.  Living in a huge city is very stressful, being surrounded by so many foreign cultures and languages, and the hopelessness of the inner city is crushing. Yet, they turn to the Word of God which says, “…in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.”  How can we say “no” when they ask for our prayer support?

     Our family here at Anderson 1^st is also involved in “intercultural ministries”.  Who knows what God may have in store for us as we are faithful with what He has already given us. This month, He is giving us the gift of praying for Rick and Patti Roberts, two people who have given their lives to work in the United States through intercultural ministries.  Please pray for them and trust God to do a mighty work through their lives.

“Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.”

Psalm 37:4
