God is Blessing Hill Country MBM in Kerrville, TX

Current meeting facility for Hill Country MBM.
It's always a blessing to me to visit with brothers and sisters in Christ who are diligently working to see the Gospel spread and lives changed. That's why it is an honor to be able to visit with Don, Cindy, Bethany and Allison Trussell in Kerrville, TX.

Bro. Don is entering his second year as a state salaried missionary, serving at Hill Country MBM in Kerrville. Prior to answering the call of the Lord, Hill Country, and sponsoring church Faith MBC of Round Rock, Bro. Don and Sis. Cindy worked as house parents for the Texarkana Baptist Orphanage.

The Trussells are working hard in Kerrville. They are holding one-day VBS's on Saturdays (one in November and one in December), Open House events at the church building, doing evangelism and reaching out in their community, and trying to see God build the work. So far, the Lord has been blessing.

As with any mission work, the more tools you have, the more widely you can spread the Gospel. In mission work, those tools are often acquired due to the generous support given by sister churches. As of right now, Bro. Don and Sis. Cindy are working with minimal support aside from the support from the MBA of Texas, their sponsoring church and a recent TMD presentation. The MBA of Texas support pays Bro. Don's salary and the TMD funds can only be used to purchase land or buildings. The MBA of Texas Ladies Auxiliary recently presented the Kerrville mission with the 2010 annual mission project check, but again those funds have designated uses.

In the mean time, tracts need to be purchased and distributed, outreach events need to take place, and the mission could use a few more resources. Therefore, I would like to encourage the churches of the MBA of Texas to consider supporting the work in Kerrville. If not regularly, perhaps a one-time offering. The Trussells are most grateful for all support given. On that note, I am grateful for the support given to the Brownwood work as well. Your support really enables us to do great things for the Lord.

Offerings for the Kerrville mission can be sent via their sponsoring church:

Be sure to write on the memo line that the check is intended for Hill Country Mission in Kerrville.
