It's been a while since I have updated this site! I was checking my home page and saw in the footprints that 93 people have viewed this site this week. I now have a facebook and a blogspot page but quite frankly I do not have the time to blog every day or  every week.
In November I was in Grenada to launch a new study center for Miami International Seminary (MINTS). We had about 70 students for the first class. In December I was back in Grenada with Rev. Dr. Richard Wolfe (MTW Director for the Caribbean). We both taught a class and had close to 90 students! Our MINTS director in Grenada is Rev. John Lewis (MIA missionary) and is doing a terrific job.
In December we host a MTW medical team and move our church to a temporay but more permanent facility. We are now looking for property to purchanse and build. Two weeks ago, we had 5 adult professions of faith and baptisms. The Lord contiues to bless our work and for that we are grateful.
I have posted so pictures of the last few months ministry.

I can't believe it has been almost 2 months since I have updated! A lot has been happening in the past few months so I will try and bring everyone up to date. First of all, the crime here has been on the increase! So far this year, we have had 252 murders! If this keep up, we will easily hit 500+ for the year. I was coming back from the US last New Years and remember reading a US paper and seeing how many murders took place in the major cities in the US.  We had more murders in Trinidad/Tobago than they had in NY city or Houston, TX. Both of these cities about double the population of Trinidad/Tobago.This past weekend we had 3 kidnappings here in Central Trinidad.
So as you read this, please keep us in your prayers as we go about our daily routine in ministry.
Over the past 2 months, I was able to teach 6 classes in our MINTS study center here. So far we have completed 2 courses since February. In July, we will begin a new course on systematic theology. We expect at least 3 more students to join. Next weekend I will be in St. Vincent to finish a course in Historical Theology. They will take their summer break and get prepared for graduation in the fall. They plan on graduating 40 students!
Our church in Central is continuing to grow. We have new visitors each week and brought in a new member this past Lord's Day. I continue to preach through the Heidelberg Catechism and the congregation seems to enjoy the in depth teaching. Most of our congregation comes from a Pentecostal background so doctrinal preaching is something that is quite new to them.
Our two radio broadcast continue to do very well. Since we began the Ligonier broadcast in February, we have sent out over 1000 CDs. We give a free offer each week and offer (for sale) many of Dr. Sproul's teaching materials on CD, DVD or in book form.
We are preparing for a VBS team to come in July and then a medical team of 93 med students to arrive in August! After that, I hope to join my family in the US for about a month of rest!
We are expecting 2 couples to come down this summer to observe the work here to see if there is where God may be leading them. We do need help! So please pray with us that God will soon send 1 or 2 couples here to join in our labors!
Currently we have a MTW missionary couple that are in the process of raising support to join our work here. They need about $1800.00 more per month before they can make a move. Please join us in prayer that they will soon have these funds raise. Ron and Peg were missionaries in Equador and came back to the US about 2 years ago. They have been looking for a new field of service and it seems that Trinidad is where they want to be.
Ron has extensive radio experience and will be a great help to us here in our radio and church planting efforts. We are ready to go into a new area to begin a weekly study but Ricky and I cannot take on any more work.
Jerry Bridges has come out with a new book that I encourage all to read "Respectable Sins."  It is so easy in our fallen nature to point the finger at others and cast judgment upon them. We like to point out certain sins as particularly evil and ignore or even approve of transgressions that we often consider more trivial. In this book, Jerry Bridges looks at some of these so called "trivial" sins such as judgmentalism, anger, discontentment, selfishness, pride, gossip, slander, tale-bearing and others. He helps us learn to reonize these "trivial" sins as real sins and just as offensive to God and the so-called "big" sins!
Many times we slander and gossip about others under the guise of "concern" or asking for prayer for someone. I think this book is very helpful to point out these "trivial" sins that are often tolerated in the church and reminds us of God's perspective on such sins. This book is available through Ligonier Ministries.
Below are a few pics of what has been going on:


We finally took a day off for some R&R. We were celebrating our 25th anniversary with our
children at the beach.


Hannah on her 19th birthday. We had the Gosyne family over for dinner and of course
cake!


Our daughter, Jennifer, and four of our grandchildren. I was able to spend a day with them during
my recent trip to Orlando to meet with the folks at Ligonier International.

Patrick Dyer. He is one of the broadcast engineers who is with me in studio for our
all night broadcast.


This is the Hindu god Hunaman (the Monkey god). This is the largest idol outside India. He resides about
10 miles from our home in Central, Trinidad.


This is Joshua reminding everyone just how big this idol is compared to the Yahweh, the True and Living God!

I can't believe it has been almost two months since I have update my xanga site. A lot has happened over the past few months that have kept us busy! So here goes the update.
In February we launched our Ligonier office. The office is set up in my study, where we produce teaching CDs, stock books and the Reformation Study Bible. We continue to get many calls from the radio broadcast and are able to send out a free offer each week. Dr. Sproul's teaching is being well received here in Trinidad! We thank God for this valuable partnership in enabling us to ground God's People in sound theology.
Also, in February we launched Mars Hill Institute of Biblical Theology. Our first class began with nine students. I taught the first part of Historical Theology. The students had their first exam on Saturday.We pick up with part two on May 9th. We are looking to have about fifteen students enrolled by that time. I leave for St. Vincent in Friday to teach in our MINTS center there and to teach a seminar to church leaders on suicide prevention.
In March we hosted 25 students from Reformed University Fellowship (RUF), Wake Forest University, NC. This was a wonderful team and accomplished a lot in their 7 day short term trip! They helped me set up the equipment that Ligonier sent down to reproduce CD'/DVDs and to print labels directly to the CD/DVD. I have never seen a machine like this! I can burn 10 CDs/DVDs at one time and print the label directly to the disk! This team went right to work and had the equipment running in a couple of  hours. They also set up a new  blog page for me at: www.missiontrinidad.blogspot.com/. In the mornings, some of the team members went to Carlsen Field to work on our Sunday School building for the children and another team went to Pastor Ricky's home to work on his house. In the afternoons they held a bible study for the kids in Carlsen Field and played soccer with them. At the end of the week it was very hard for them to leave because they really bonded with the kids there.
After the RUF team left we hosted MTW's Advance Medical Leadership Training team. A team of 33 doctors, nurses and medical providers were here for  a week of mission training. Part of their training was setting up two on site clinics. We are looking forward to another team to arrive in August.
Our two radio broadcast continue to do well. The Lord is indeed blessing His Word. We continue to receive calls each day regarding information about our school, books, bibles, church etc...Sometimes it gets crazy and we have to unplug the phone! If not, we would get calls all night especially during the broadcast from 12:00am - 4:00 am.The first night we were on the air Adanna got a call at 2:00 am! She learned very quickly how to unplug the phone.
The church continues to grow as well. When the medical team left in January, we had over 60 people attend the next Sunday and each week since the attendance has been steady with new visitors almost each week. We hope to baptize the first person to make profession of faith from Carlsen Field next month.
Below are some photos from the past few months

This is Richard! He is a student at our MINTS center here and works for Pizza Hut as a delivery person.
He also delivers product for our Ligonier ministry and delivers our mail to the post office.
He is a huge blessing to us!
