Dear Friends and Family,
Legendary Yankees manager Casey Stengel was once quoted:
“Now there’s three things you can do in a baseball game: you can win or you can lose or it can rain.”
If Casey got to be part of our team here in Illinois he might add a fourth thing:
“...or it could get rescheduled for issues beyond our control but we’ll make up the game in September…”
According to the plan, we would have had the van packed and ready to go a week from right now. Unfortunately, the Terre Haute trip that was supposed to happen next weekend was postponed because of some unforeseen issues at the prison. The good news is that they rescheduled us to still come on September 23rd.
It is always a disappointment when we get postponed but fortunately, we can trust that God is sovereign and that He will provide a way for the inmates at Terre Haute to hear the Gospel, either later in the year from us, or from other believers who come to minister.
Please keep us in prayer as we prepare for our next visit on June 3rd to Taylorville CC. Please pray that we are allowed to go and minister and that God would provide for the trip!
Thank you for all of your support this season and throughout the years as I have had the opportunity to serve.
Thanks,
Tom Gibson
