MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE!
Annie and I pray that all of you will have a wonderful Christmas and that God will bless you in all that you do!
Wow, it doesn't seem like it has been a year already. Seems like it was just a little while ago we were in America eating Turkey, all kinds of sweets and opening Christmas packages with our Daughter's family. Wow, how quickly our lives can change.
Then in January, it has been one year since Annie had her mini stroke. At first looked like she was going to go to heaven before me. She was weak, couldn't use her left side very well and couldn't see hardly anything. Here we are 11 months later back in Thailand and she is physically stronger than me, walks faster than me, blood sugar and blood pressure stable and eye sight getting better every month. We are still believing for her eye sight to return to normal and God to make her emotions strong and stable again. I am sitting here wondering what it will be like when December 2013 comes around. Surely it will be better and God will get all the glory! Amen?
God has been good to us this year and we have still been able to minister here at the church in Prakhonchai, in Laos and in Vietnam. Next month will be a step of faith for Annie to start teaching again here in the church. I believe she is going to be anointed more than ever. Please pray as she teaches the lady leaders starting the 2nd weekend of January.
I believe next year we will be heading to other nations to minister as well. I am sure of Laos, Vietnam and now we have already scheduled a trip to the Philippines next May. I will be the guest speaker at an anniversary of a church and leaders conference and Annie will be teaching the ladies there in two different churches. This will be the start of a fulfillment of prophesy over our ministry and our lives. We are excited that God has opened this door for us. We totally believe that this trip is God's will and we are believing in God to provide for all of our expenses for this trip. If anyone would like to help us with the expenses for this trip just let me know or you can contribute to the address at the end of this update and in the memo put Dryden Philippine trip. We are living in exciting times especially here in SE Asia, God is moving in every country and we are happy we can be a part. Please pray for us as well.
