Continuing to pray for the PIEI Camp Ministry in Ukraine. It looks like Cornel has joined the young people’s worship team (they are amazing)! I want to hear a sound clip, should be so good!

Just to let you know that my wife and l and one of our ministry staff were in Mission trip to Nakivale refugee camp this last weekend where we visited our churches and and school for refugees there. Despite of many challenges there but we thank God for what he is doing for his kingdom expansion: winning souls and giving hope to the hopeless through his word.
Thank you so much for your prayers and generous support.
Yours in Christ

I am overwhelmed and humbled by the outpouring of love and support by so many friends and family (even people we don't know!). Thank you to each and every person who has reached out to comment, send cards, text, and call me with their condolences and offers of support. Being surrounded by the most loving family and friends is beyond what we would ever expect. I'm comforted by the thought that he's looking down from above in awe and appreciation.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 4:00 pm on Saturday, June 10, 2023, at South Grandville Church, 4130 Wilson Ave. Grandville, MI 49418. Relatives and friends may greet the family from 3-4 pm prior to the service at church.

Everyone is welcome to attend and come share your favorite memories of Dave. Please share this with people who might not see this online but may like to attend. During a time such as this, we gain our strength from the Lord and our friends and family. We are working on trying to live stream the service for those who are unable to attend. Further information will be posted.

Most important of all, thank you for all of the prayers that were said on our behalf. We are blessed beyond measure. ❤️

It is with a lot of emotions and personal feelings that we are making this announcement. Our beloved brother in Christ and co-laborer in PIEI ministry was called home to be with our Savior.
Dale was a most dedicated servant who loved and served the Lord by serving others with love, joy, and passion. His joy was contagious and constant. It will be hard to see Carol without Dale after so many years, as the two were one so much serving together, as in life and marriage, also in ministry. May God strengthen, comfort, and give extra grace to our beloved sister in Christ Carol. We love you and pray for you.

Continuous prayer needed for our partnership brother in Christ, Dave Talmage. He is one of the sons of our former PIEI General Director Ray Talmage, and on the Uganda Committee.
I just talked to Dave’s mother Violet, and Dave is close to going home. On his final days on hospice care right now. His wife Dena has been a pillar of strength.
She writes: We’re on earth for a short time. And during this time, God invites us to trust Him more than we trust ourselves. We fix our eyes on what we cannot see because what we see is temporary. We lose our way (and our nerve) when we get so caught up in the temporary that we lose sight of the eternal. … Whatever He allows in our lives, He intends to redeem. Our trials are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
2 Corinthians 4:16–18 NLT ~ That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day. For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever! So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever. — With David Talmage

We’ve been blessed once again getting together for our PIEI semi-annual board meeting, listening to reports from around the world and welcoming in new ministries.
Friday evening we gathered at the home of Cornel and Gabi Stef in La Porte, IN.
Many thanks to Liberty Bible Church La Porte for once again letting us hold our meeting on Saturday in their beautiful facility.
Several ministries were able to join us live online from other countries and from other parts of the US, thanks to our website and tech specialist Jonathan Stef.
One of our partnership representative attending the meeting and driving to Indiana all the way from Missouri made this statement: “as am the care giver of my elderly father in law and have to be at home all the time, I chose this Board Meeting as my getaway time, which I’ve chosen carefully. I did that last year and I enjoyed it so much, it’s been such a blessing.”
Listening to the new ministries, missionary doctors, surgeons, an engineer, an anesthesiologist, another former missionary serving overseas, all with hearts on fire to support national missionaries, people who have been on short term mission trips who have been touched and called into getting involved in partnering in evangelism - feeling God’s presence and the stirring of His Spirit that He wants to use us to reach out to those He loves and wants for Himself. Here I am…

The 2022 PIEI anual Board meeting was held once again in Chicago at Midwest Bible Church. It is such a great event, hearing reports from our national missionaries from around the world, and getting to pray for each ministry. We enjoy seeing each other and having sweet fellowship. The ministry continues to grow and reach more people with the Gospel of Christ. The ones who could not attend in person joined us on Zoom, so we had a large screen with many nationals and partnership leaders participating.
