The Joy of Loving

It is our continual prayer that God would help us to love and encourage others in the same way that He loves and encourages us. Over the last year, Scott made strides in mentoring, equipping and empowering his Papua New Guinean colleagues to take on greater security responsibilities.Kathy has poured into her students and her 9th grade girls community group by teaching and investing in their academic and spiritual growth. Together, we have enjoyed the camaraderie of our fellow missionaries at work and in Bible studies, and have been challenged to love deeply, to be family and to serve those around us. We have been extraordinarily blessed to serve in Papua New Guinea, and we invite you to be a part of this team effort as well. Would you prayerfully consider joining our Wycliffe ministry team as a prayer and monthly financial partner so that we can return to our roles in PNG in March 2020? We need to raise $1054 per month to reach 100% our Wycliffe budget in order to be released to return to PNG. The joy of loving others flows from the fact that God first loved us, and Christmas is an annual reminder of that love. Through His grace and mercy, God has provided a way for us to be reconciled to Himself through His son, Jesus Christ. This truth compels us to continue to serve in Papua New Guinea as long as He would have us there. We love the team of wonderful people that He has used, both in the US and PNG, to make this possible. To God be the Glory! “Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” Luke 2: 8-14 (NKJV)

Blessings to you and your family,

Scott & Kathy Watson
