April 2017
Dear Praying Friends,
He was a long serving police officer, faithful husband
and godly father. As if that weren’t
enough for the average man, he also sacrificed his hard earned money to
financially support missionaries all across the world and was a tenacious
prayer warrior on their behalf. Over the
years, he wrote us many notes asking for updates on people and situations we
had mentioned in our monthly prayer letters. We knew we had a faithful prayer warrior in Thomas Holroyd! But on Friday, April 14, at 6:22 pm, the Lord decided this super hero of a man
had finished his course, had kept the faith and was ready to receive his
rewards.
We grieve for his
children who have lost their beloved father, we grieve for the many
missionaries (including us) who were the recipients of his faithful financial
and prayer support down through the years.
He may not have been well known outside of his family and hometown, yet
he is intimately known by His Savior and Lord.
Only eternity will reveal what his financial sacrifices and labors in
prayer accomplished all across the world.
I am sure he is meeting folks right now that he was instrumental in seeing
saved!
Will you volunteer to
take his place? Will you ask God to use
you as He did Thomas Holroyd? Will you
kneel before your Creator and Savior and willingly commit all He has given you
to reach untold millions in this world?
Life is so short and we only have the time and resources God gives us to
make an eternal difference. Thomas
Holroyd understood this and invested in eternal treasures. Will you?
Praising God for prayer
warriors,
Mark Hale
