Dear Praying Friends,
Just a quick note to update you on the wonderings of the Iseminger Family. The
month of May started for us in Maryland & PA with good meetings in both churches
as well as some time with friends. We pulled out of there headed for Maine,
taking a quick pit stop in New Jersey to see our good friends the Swiatkowskis
at eat at Top's Diner in East Newark (one of my favorite places in the world to
eat). We arrived in Maine without incident and got settled into our cabin.
If you have been keeping up with what is going on with us, we have been praying
that God would open the right doors and show us what He has next for us. The
primary reason for the trip to Maine was that a church here (South Liberty
Baptist in Liberty, ME) has cabins for preachers to stay in free of charge, we
were hoping that two weeks here would bring us a little closer to God showing us
what our next move is. Now that we are here, we have found several open doors
and also found out that the pastor here (Nathan Garnett, who has pastored here
30 years) recently had a heart attack and is having some health problems. He has
asked us if we would be willing to stick around a while and help him with some
things in the church. We have agreed to do this and it looks like we will be
here until about the middle of June. While we are here I will be teaching the
Adult Sunday School class and preaching some on Sunday & Wednesday nights as
well.
In addition to this, God is opening several other doors as well. A missionary
put us in touch with Trinity Baptist Church in Moscow, ME A church that is
presently without a pastor. Next Sunday we will be up with them, assessing the
situation and seeing what if anything we might do to help them out. The
following Sunday we will be with Pastor Ron Meldrum in Kingfield, ME and either
while we are here or on our way out we will be with Pastor Joe Scearbo at Olivet
Baptist in West Lebanon, NH.
We are glad for the open doors and excited about the opportunities.
Please pray that this next month here in Maine will be productive for us and God
will continue to lead, guide and direct our paths.
Thanks for praying, June is prayer letter month so, Lord willing you will have a
new letter from us early next month.
Because of Calvary,
The Iseminger Family
