Molter Family Update

"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.'" Psalm 91:1-2 NKJV

Dear Friends and Family,
 

We are so thankful for all of your prayers and support for us here as we get the Gospel message out. We entered into the new year with a new season upon us, one we knew was coming but just not when. Tim's Grandmother passed away and went to be with the Lord. We are so grateful for the times we have gotten to spend with her here and the opportunity for her to see her great-grandson Joshua. She knew Jesus and loved Him and God was her refuge so we rest in peace knowing she placed her trust in Jesus for her salvation. Death is never an easy time for those left behind but we don't sorrow as those with no hope.

We press on with a renewed passion to tell more people about Jesus and to remind them that one day they too will take their last breath here so they best be prepared by trusting in Jesus who loves them. Our desire is to see everyone be saved and to understand the truth. For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the Man Christ Jesus. He gave His life to purchase freedom for everyone. This is the message God has given to us and we hope to share it with as many as we can. May the Lord give you a renewed passion this year as well to reach the lost with the wonderful gospel message of God's grace and forgiveness.

Praise God for:

Tim being able to bless and comfort his Father and Step-Mother by conducting the memorial service for Tim's Grandmother with an invitation for others to receive Christ.

Our son Joshua - He has an interest in all things related to "baby Jesus". He also loves to pray to Him often and considers Him his best friend even though he can't see Him.

 
Sunday Night Bible Study - We are continuing through the Gospel of John and just finished chapter 9 this past Sunday night. One woman named Cindy continues to join us and is growing in her relationship with the Lord.

Young Adult Outreach - Tim has been asked to be apart of the leaders for the college group that meets on campus at M-State called Ignite. His desire is to come along side and equip these students to know Jesus and make Him known.
 
Friday Night Prayer Meetings - We have been having such a blessed time as we gather together praying for one another on Friday nights. This is the powerhouse of all we do.

Please Pray for:
 

Our Family - Please pray for the health of Tim's Step-Father in California as he has been diagnosed with cancer. Pray for the family to draw close to the Lord in this time.
 
Divine appointments - Pray for us to have boldness in our everyday conversations and that we wouldn't miss out on His Divine appointments for us here in Fergus Falls.
 
Our Home in CA - We are waiting to see what happens as we have a potential offer on it and we pray that when it does sell that it would be a blessing to the right family.
 
Our Church Plant Here - Pray for us to have wisdom from the Lord as we continue steadfastly in teaching the Bible and continue to fellowship and pray together. Our prayer is that we would be able to move our Bible study into a location outside of our home this year in 2014.

Thank you so much for your love, prayers and support for our family! And please let us know how we can be praying for you.

Merry Christmas from the Molter Family in Fergus Falls

Merry Christmas!

Maybe you are having a difficult time this Christmas, maybe your not but know someone who is, Christmas is a time to remember that God is with us. Jesus hasn't forgotten about you even if it feels as if others have. His name is Immanuel, which means "God with us." Jesus said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5). From the original language, it literally could read something like this: "I will never, no never, no never leave you or forsake you." He is going to be with you in the sad days. He is going to be with you on the hard days. He is going to be with you in the happy days. He will be with you through all of your days.

Many people loose sight of the real meaning of Christmas during this season and the truth is what they are really longing for, deep down inside, is not Christmas cheer, but Christ. Yes Christmas is more than merrymaking, it's about the Messiah; its more than doing goodwill, it's all about the good that God has done for us. Even Dr. Seuss in the "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" got it right that Christmas comes without ribbons, it comes without tags, and it comes without packages, boxes or bags. Yes Christmas doesn't come from a store, because Christmas means a little bit more.

Christmas is more than exchanging presents as it's about the best present of all time that we can have His presence in our lives. Anyone or anything short of that will disappoint. That is what this season all about. It is about Immanuel, God is with us. He is here for you, but have you received Him? He's the best free gift of all time.

 

Praise God for:

• The new relationships we are making here, it's been slow but very good
• The wonderful times we have been able to spend together as a family
• The opportunity to share with the saints at Calvary Chapel Fargo (if you would like to you can also listen to the study at: http://www.calvarychapelfargo.org/sermons/?sermon_id=616)
• All of you who are supporting our family through your prayers

Please Pray for:

• Our next outreach only one week away on New Years Eve where the theme is "Don't just make a resolution, make an Impact!".
• Also for our outreach after that which is a Strengthening Your Marriage 6-week class, please pray for us to have boldness to invite people to come to these outreaches
  
• Us to keep depending upon the Holy Spirit and for us to follow His leading and His timing
• Our house back in Chico to sell and for the Lord's will to be done
  

Thank you so much for your love, prayers and support for our family! And please let us know how we can be praying for you.

Hello Friends and Family,

We have so much to be thankful for in these times and the biggest thing that we can be thankful for is simply that God loves us. When we put our trust in the finished work of Jesus who died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose again from the grave we then become a child of God. All of our sins are forgiven and we are rescued by His great grace. And God also gives us a peace that surpasses all understanding when troubled times come our way. Storms come and storms go, but we can be thankful that our God never leaves us and is always with us.

get into a Bible character.

We are so thankful for all of you who read our updates and join with us in this ministry. And we pray that you will have a wonderful Thanksgiving this year with the Lord and with your family and friends. Be blessed and may the words found in Psalm 100 lift up your heart up as you remember that 'His mercy is everlasting and His truth endures to all generations'.

Praise God for:

• Love gifts in His perfect timing: We were able to purchase a DVD-player earlier this month for our My Hope America with Billy Graham outreach. We were also able to purchase a block-heater for our car so it starts up when it gets below 20 degrees outside. And we praise God for the gifts we have received for Joshua and for us to have a date night. Matthew 25:40. Thank you Jesus!
  

Please Pray for:

• Our families health in California and for the peace of God. Matthew 19:26. There are some very tough times are ahead.
  
• The spiritual battle is going on here: our fellowship's website was been attacked by an online hacker and we have been facing denial-of-service attacks as well. We are now onto our third hosting provider. Ephesians 6:12. We pray the Gospel continues to get out!
  

Thank you so much for your love, prayers and support for our family! And please let us know how we can be praying for you.
