Nadira and I have been missionaries to Suriname since 1989. We have worked among the Guyanese in evangelism, discipleship, and leadership training. The Lord has blessed our efforts with the establishing of two Guyanese churches with national pastors. In 2004, we began our ministry with the Hindustani, the least evangelized people of Suriname. We are seeking to establish house churches in the Hindustani communities thorugh making disciples and training nationals.

Two Friends
Nathan (on the right) and his cousin Victor enjoys playing with eath other. Both of them go to the same school. Nathan loves to share everything he has with Victor. Whenever I purchase anything for Nathan, he would ask, "Did you buy one for Victor?" Nathan is four years old and on March 11, he will be five years old, He is really looking forward for his birthday. It seems more like he cannot wait for the day to come. He is already asking for his birthday gift. As a matter of fact, everyday he would say, "Did you buy my birthday gift?" Nathan has been having a cough for some time. Pray that the Lord will heal, strengthen, and sustain him daily.

House Church
One morning, I took a short-term group from Trinidad to visit the village of Jarikaba for a prayer walk. We walked around the village and prayed for each Hindustani home that God would bring them to saving knowledge of Christ. On Sunday, the group sang in the Hindustani house church in Jarakaba and Pastor Mitch challenged the Hindustani believers to recognize who they are in Christ and how much they have to offer to the unsaved Hindustani community by sharing the hope, the peace, and the light that they have received from Christ. Pray that the Hindustani believers will be bold to share their faith with their unsaved relatives, neighbors, and friends.
