Last week I enjoyed an incredible two days traveling with BWAid Director Marsha Scipio and spending time with Baptists in Texas, including meetings with BWA Vice President Dr. Albert L. Reyes and the ministry of Buckner International; Mickey Lenamon and Rand Jenkins and the ministry of Texas Baptist Men; Adam Wright, Bob Garrett, and Blake Killingsworth at Dallas Baptist University; Craig Christina, Katie Monroe Frugé, Steve Massey and many more serving through Texas Baptists, and ministry partner Asha Sanchu. All of these ministries and leaders are purposefully and powerfully touching many around the world with the Gospel.

We are especially grateful for the opportunity to enter into an expanded partnership with Texas Baptist Men to develop the BWA Disaster Preparedness Training Academy. Please join us in prayer for this new initiative and for continued opportunities for BWAid to respond to those in need.
