Gateway Update from Turkey: August 2008

Gateway Update and Prayer Request August 5, 2008

Update from E.:

(For avid Turkish Readers, read E.’s letter in Turkish below)

To all the members of Christ’s Army, Greetings again!

This week was a wonderful and blessed week, May the Lord receive Glory! Except for a few saddening events, it was a week that was guided by the fullness of the Lord and by the help of the Holy Spirit.

Gateway’s second church plant here in the East (Beytel East) has realized its’ first baptism!

Many of you know how for years we have been sharing with “K.” and many in his family. “K.” was baptized this week, representing his death with Christ and resurrection into his new life. All of us are very happy! Please continue with your prayers and support of us here. For us to continue to reach the lost sheep of the Lord we need your continual prayer and support. “K.” wanted to greet you all as a new creature in the Kingdom of the Holy Lord.

It was quite evident that after his baptism “K.” and all of us that were a part of his baptism have come under spiritual attack. Because of these ongoing attacks we have an urgent need for your focused prayers concerning this. Pray specifically for me, “K.” and “L.” and the attacks we are experiencing.

We let “K.” know that you as soldiers in the Army of the Kingdom, said to him, welcome to salvation and welcome as an Ambassador and as a new soldier in the Kingdom.

May the all sovereign God of Salvation that is with us, bless you all and protect you!

“E.” of G.E.S.

Update from L. and J.:

L. and J. will be returning to Turkey in ten days. Pray for their health, safety in travel and that they would be able to take 10 bags to Turkey for the Zacchaeus Projects. J. also is thankful and praising the King that his sister “M”. and her family are now serving the Lord among the Palestinians in Israel! J. is also happy for this as his sister is nearby.

May God Bless you all!

Thanks for your prayers and support!

J. of G.E.S.

Letter from E. in Turkish:

Tekrar merhaba mesihin ordusunun mensupları,


Bu hafta bereketli ve harika bir haftaydı Rabbe yücelik olsun. Küçük üzücü olayların dışında Rabbin doluluğu ve Kutsal ruhun desteğiyle geçen bir haftaydı.

G.E.S bu topraklarda ilk vaftizini gerçekleştirdi.

Hepinizin tanıdığı K. Vaftizle birlikte öldü ve yeni hayatına dirildi. Yani vaftizi yapıldı. Hepimiz çok sevinçliyiz.Lütfen bizler için olan dualarınızı ve yardımlarınızı sürdürünüz.Rab in kuzularına daha fazla ulaşabilmemiz için sizlerinde desteklerinize ihtiyacımız var. Yüce Rabbin Krallığının bir parçası olan K hepinize selam söylüyor. Şunu belirtmek isterimki K nin Vaftizinden hemen sonra Ben ve L vaftizi yapan kişiler olarak ve K vaftiz olan olarak farkedilir şekilde ataklara maruz kalmaya başladık maddi ve manevi ataklara lütfen bu ataklar için güçlü bir şekilde acil dualarınıza ihtiyacımız var Ben .K.L için dua ediniz.

Krallığın Ordusunun siz askerleri olarak Krallığın yeni askerine Elçi olarak aramıza kurtuluşa Hoş geldin dediğinizi ilettik.

Her şeye egemen Kurtuluşun Tanrısı hepimizle beraberdir. sİzleri bereketlesin ve korusun

e.Berkin
G.E.S
