Daily Devotionals and RU100%SURE? Translations!
Please keep an exciting project in your prayers as KE Resources makes available daily devotional material to countries around the world.

We are currently working with seven in-country team leaders to have these daily devotions, which are written by Pastor Ron Hammonds, translated and printed in each of these host countries.

These resources, which facilitate daily prayer and Bible reading for church members and leaders alike, are already proving to be invaluable. Even the translators are commenting on their growing excitement to participate in making available this book which will both challenge and encourage Christians in their communities.

Some of the languages we will be providing include: English, Arabic, Nepali, Swahili, Hindi, Russian, Thai, and the number is growing!

In addition to this project, we are also currently working on supplying Pastor Tej Rokka of Nepal with the printing of a translation of the RU100%Sure? material. This translation has the potential to reach a projected 50,000 people who are lost without Christ! What a significant difference one translation can make!
North Church Facilities Now Fully Recovered from Hurricane IKE and Growing!
Though the necessary post-Hurricane Ike Pastor Sam and Beverly Walkerremodeling and restoration of our facilities has been challenging, it has finally come to a close and our vision and focus can be redirected to the more weighty and important purpose of expanding God's Kingdom here in Southeast Texas as well as around the world.

In fact, this past month has produced some very visible and encouraging fruit. Last Sunday six adults made very real commitments to Christ, many more joined COTR North and a fresh wind of the Spirit seems to be blowing upon our weekly services. New faces are showing up on a weekly basis and many of them are in the College & Career age group!

One of our new young men was recently overheard telling one of his invited guests, "Yeah man, I love this church!" Our new members and return guests are, in fact bringing their friends and family. With this fresh new momentum building around us, we are believing and now preparing for greater and more impacting days ahead.

This July episode of Truth for Today is geared toward helping leaders make tough decisions. Dr. Hammonds encourages pastors and missionaries throughout the world to recognize that "failure is not defeat" and sometimes we simply need to "possess a high tolerance for experimentation" to see success. We hope you are blessed with new insight as you gain confidence from the Word of God and the simple truths outlined in this segment.

Missions Trip to Yoshkar-Ola Christian Center, Russia
The Hammonds and Benliens arrive and meet Pastor Sergei and his wife Nina and Dema in the early morning hours in Kazan
Pastor Ron and Brenda Hammonds and Associate Pastor Robert and Charlotte Benlien just returned from visiting Yoshkar-Ola Christian Center - a church planted in 1993 in Russia when Golden Triangle Church on the Rock took on the challenge of establishing a church in this region of Russia that had no gospel witness.

Worship at YOCCYoshkar-Ola is a city of approximately 350,000 people about 400 miles northeast of Moscow. Yoshkar-Ola Christian Center (YOCC) continues to multiply itself throughout the Mari El Republic and beyond. There are now three churches that have been birthed from YOCC and another church will begin in August in the city of Kazan,Tatarstan, a predominately Muslim city of 1.5 million people located south of Yoshkar-Ola.
 
Greeting the churchThe Hammonds and Benliens were able to spend time mentoring leadership and ministering one on one to many on the church members. The Benliens, who were the missionary pastors of YOCC for the first three years, reported that each time they return it is like a homecoming because many of the church family are like their own children. The presence and ministry of Pastor Ron and Brenda meant a great deal to the people and church leaders, a number of whom were just teenagers when the church began.
 
Pastor Sergei Pastor Sergei is the Senior Pastor of YOCC and though a young man, God has established him as a man of wisdom and vision in reaching Russia with the gospel.

Please continue to offer your prayers to God that Yoshkar-Ola Christian Center continues to be a bright beacon of hope in Christ and that all of Russia be saved!
