In this issue of WEI Update, we have seen God work in spectacular ways. Our hearts have been filled with awe. In humility, we bow before the Lord and give him honor and praise.
In addition to honoring God, the scriptures tell us to honor one another (Romans 12:10). When Christians allow God to use them to accomplish his purposes, we should recognize them for their service.
At a WEI reception at Harding University recently, we honored Bob and Jan Towell. The Lord has used Bob and Jan and their grandson Jonathan to develop our encrypted WEI teaching web site—a web site that makes it possible for us to teach hundreds of thousands of students in every nation—even in Muslim nations where Bible study has been outlawed. Join us in honoring the Towells with a Christian Service Award.
At the reception, we also honored Tom Langley, the new President of WEI, his wife Angie, and their younger daughter, Bianca. Britanny was in school and could not be there to see her dad introduced.
Maudine and I would also like to honor David and Lola Crouch who have vigorously recruited Internet teachers and promoted WEI in the College Church and at Harding University. They are the ones who prepared the beautiful plaque for the Towells, arranged the special dinner for WEI teachers, and organized the WEI reception Tuesday night following the lecture. David and Lola, we honor you in the name of Christ.
Maudine and I would also like to thank all of our loyal friends who have supported us through the years. We have not retired. The work goes on. We need your support now more than ever. Thank you for your fellowship in world evangelism. We pray that God will raise up others like you who will help the Gresham office rebound from our financial deficit. May God bless you and keep you. We love you.
—Dick and Maudine Ady
