10 June 2017 – Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, What a wonderful Pentecost we had in Taungoo, Myanmar! It was a very special holy day. What made it so special? Besides being a wonderful God-ordained high Sabbath day, it really felt as if the Holy Spirit was being poured out upon the 49 people gathered there. No, there were no little flames of fire appearing on our heads. And, no, we did not erupt into different languages other than the English sermon being translated into the Burmese language. But nevertheless, it was a very spiritual experience.
IN THIS LETTER: Pentecost in Myanmar ● New Teachers at Legacy ● The “Denny Tractor” ● Surachai and MoPalel – Dear Friends and Fellow Laborers, Gloria and I recently returned from a trip to Myanmar (Burma) for Pentecost.

The U.N. has become nothing more than an international sounding board for enemy nations to air their grievances against the United States and Israel.
