Meet Missionary Monday

Yes, it's time for 3M -- Meet Missionary Monday.

Missionary Shiloh Monday and his wife Molly arrived in the DR straight from the Seminary in 2003. They live in Santiago where he mentors the pastoral ministry for two congregations: Iglesia Cristiana Luterana in Santiago and Cordero de Dios in Moca (just outside of Stgo). He is the outreach missionary for the field and occasionally teaches a seminary course.

Molly is a blessing to the field with her support of Shiloh, her always cheerful and positive words of encouragement, and the "bonus" of her medical knowledge as a nurse. She enjoys staying home to raise their two children, Sam and Sophia. And we can't forget the third one on the way--Molly is due in mid-May. Please pray that the Lord keep mother and child safe in his care.

Sam, born 19 Sep 2003, loves going to Sunday School and "Jesus' house". He's also becoming quite the expert on tractors and big machines.

Sophia, born 15 Feb 2006, is learning about Jesus, too, from family devotions. She loves to play with her big brother and has a smile and giggle that are simply contagious.

We'll get to know the Mondays better in future posts. May the Lord bless the labors of their hands and give them joy in ministering to his saints here in the DR.

The Lord bless you with his Peace,
NW
