Dear Friends,
Praise the Lord!
With my van packed full of ministry materials and personal necessities, I arrived in Northern Quebec at the end of January. What a privilege to preach words of encouragement, bringing hope and comfort to many assemblies in both Quebec and Ontario during these last weeks.
I was amazed and encouraged by the excellent response. Even the mid-week services were very well attended. Many people responded for prayer. After one service in Smiths Falls I was drawn to speak with a teenage boy who had listened intently to the message. It was a privilege to pray with him to surrender his life to Christ.
Although it is not a large assembly, the church in Pembroke had diligently prepared. On the first night several were deeply touched by the Holy Spirit and earnestly desired prayer for peace with God. One gentleman, Rick, particularly expressed with tears his need of a Saviour. Now his life will never be the same.
I also had the privilege to minister in several women's outreaches including brunches and retreats. Many unchurched ladies came to these events. It was a tremendous opportunity to share the gospel, and to pray with several for their hearts to be opened by the Holy Spirit to receive Christ.
The Lord willing during the next few weeks I will continue ministering in Ontario, but especially in Quebec. I am so grateful for your prayer support as I endeavor to share at every opportunity.

P.S. The people of Israel had complicated their relationship with God by adding multitudes of rules and regulations. Their spiritual condition had deteriorated to the point where the people were not really worshiping God as much as their rules about Him.
With divine inspiration, the prophet Micah carefully explained that the Lord really searched for pure hearts full of love for Him and their fellowman. In Micah 6:8 he declared, "He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?"
Sometimes we are guilty of seeking the mysterious, the mountain peeks of His presence, while He is calling us to the simplicity of walking in kindness and compassion from a pure heart. Someone has dared to say, "How wonderful the world would be if Christians would just be kind to one another!" We must remember God's priorities.
