June 1st is the beginning of a new month!
You have been given thirty days to use as you will.
You can waste it or use it for good by Keeping Eternity in View!
What you do today is essential because you are exchanging a day of your life for it.
When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever.
In its place is something you have left behind; let it bring honor and praise to the Lord Jesus Christ.

THREE BRAND NEW LITTLE MESSAGE TRACTS
IT IS BASEBALL SEASON; OUR PURPOSE SHOULD BE TO EVANGELIZE
You weren’t involved in planning your birth, but you do have things to think about in preparation for your death. Mainly, where will you spend eternity (heaven or hell)?
Your eternal destination isn’t based on a coin toss or the highest score; life isn’t a game. God provided a way for you to be saved from hell. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6)
Based on John 3:16-18, where will you spend eternity (heaven or hell)? For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
ARE YOU GOING TO HEAVEN? IF NOT, YOU SHOULD GET THIS SETTLED! ASK HIM TO SAVE YOU TODAY!!!
NEW TRACT FOR THOSE WHO SERVE YOUR COMMUNITY
WHEN WE HEAR THE SIRENS, WE WILL PRAY!
Psalm 91:1-3 speaks loudly to those whom we pray for:
He that dwelleth 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 will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee...
We will pray! But have you put your trust in Him?
NEW TRACT FOR THOSE WITH A BROKEN HEART
We just designed this Little Message tract for a church to be used at their local flea market. It was also designed to fit onto a free-standing street sign (Signicade MDX Plastic Frame - White). The church will be using a number of our Little Message tracts to hand out at various locations in the flea market event and their community.
AMAZON RIVER BASIN OUTREACH
The Convoy of Hope river ministry team returned on May 1st from their trip to the village of JAUARITUA, which is located seven hours from the operational base in Santarem.
Thank you for your prayers - 80 individuals were ministered to in the village, with 19 children and EIGHT adults praying to receive Christ as their personal Savior. Please continue to pray for these 27 new believers in Christ and for our discipleship teams which will be returning to begin teaching them more about Christ and their salvation in Him.
Later in May, a smaller boat went down the Rio Jari River, a tributary of the Amazon. Many fishermen along the way received the gospel, bags of ice, bottles of water, and a snack pack of food. Two men accepted Christ as their Savior on this trip.
On Saturday, May 28, the Hope for Brazil Ministries team in Manaus, Brazil, led a food bag outreach in a community where many people only have enough food for one meal a day.
Each food bag distributed costs $13.50 and has enough food staples to help a family of 4 for close to 20 days. Along with these food bags, the ministry team shares the greatest gift of all, Jesus Christ, through personal witness and a gospel tract. On this day, 30 people prayed to receive Christ as their Savior and now have eternal life in Him!
Thank you for your prayers and financial support for the operation and ministry of the Ice Boat. Praise the Lord for how God is using this ministry to see many accepting Christ into their lives. Love gifts coming into us earmarked for the ICE BOAT will be happily given to them.
