Dear Friends,

 

Greetings in the precious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Cassie and I want to sincerely thank you for your faithful prayers, encouragement, and financial support. We truly could not do what God has placed in our hearts to do without faithful churches and friends like you standing with us. We are thankful for your partnership through Macedonia World Baptist Missions and are grateful that we can labor together in this great Gospel endeavor.

 

The Lord has certainly blessed! One of the highlights of this past quarter was our Reach the World Youth Conference held here on campus this past April 18. The Lord blessed us with nearly 200 young people this year, and we are thankful for the wonderful day of preaching, teaching, fellowship, and interaction with several of our Macedonia missionary families. Most importantly, the Lord met with us in a very special way. It was encouraging to see young people challenged concerning the will of God and the need for world evangelism. We are already looking forward to and preparing for next year’s conference.

 

Looking ahead, we are excited about Refresh Week coming June 22–25. This year, it appears we will have a record number of missionary families attending. Families serving or preparing to serve in places such as Italy, the Netherlands, the western United States, Mexico, Brazil, Peru, and Southeast Asia will be with us for a week of encouragement and training. Services will be held Monday through Wednesday evenings, and we are honored to have Dr. Jonathan Barker of Amazing Grace Baptist Church in Mount Airy, North Carolina, preaching each night. During the daytime hours, we will also host training sessions for our missionary families. Please pray that the Lord would use this special week to strengthen and knit our hearts together.

 

In July, Cassie and I will travel to Brazil, where we will spend time with Brother Robert and Brother Jonathan Smith. We are looking forward to seeing firsthand the work God has accomplished through Brother Robert and his wife, Cathy, during their many years of faithful service in Brazil. We will also have the opportunity to see the great need that still exists for more church planters throughout the country. We are excited about helping raise awareness for additional church-planting efforts in Brazil in the days ahead. We also want to sincerely thank those who have helped with the expense of this trip. Travel opportunities such as these are always made at our own expense, and we are deeply grateful for those who have so generously helped make this trip possible.

 

Thank you again for your faithful partnership in this ministry. Your prayers and support mean so much to us. Truly, the hour is late, and the need has never been greater. Therefore, with your help and by God’s grace, Cassie and I continue by faith.
With sincere appreciation,

Dr. Scott and Cassie Caudill
General Director, Macedonia World Baptist Missions
