David and Marsha Mitchell, missionaries.
Ezelis Sistrunk is a CODA (child of deaf adults). She will work with children of Deaf adults in Puerto Rico, until December, 2010. This is a faith ministry. She trusts God to supply all her needs. We ask that you pray if the lord would have you to support the important work that Ezelis is doing in the name of Jesus.
Progress toward Deaf School. Dr. Diane Robinette of Knoxville, Tennessee, and Associate Professor of Education at Tusculum University College, Greenville, Tennessee, gave her five month sabbatical in 2009 to work in Puerto Rico to develop the Deaf school. She researched materials, contacted educational professionals, investigated locations, and prepared a 126page application for the school’s license. This will be submitted to the Council of Special Education, soon. Our thanks to /Dr. Robinette! The school project needs $36,000 to hire a teacher – salary and basic expenses.
Victor Martinez drove ten hours round trip to pick up 5 members of a Deaf family in the central mountain region of Puerto Rico. In this little village there are 40 close relatives who are Deaf. Victor took them to the Easter Crusade for the Deaf in Arecibo. By the time the four hour crusade was finished, four Deaf people were saved and 20 others rededicated their lives.
David and Marsha Mitchell are in Tennessee for medical treatment. He has a serious ear infection (bacterial mastoid bone infection). Pray for them.
