NTM MTC

Well this past labor day weekend we decided to visit Chris' Grandparents in Oklahoma as well as visit Ryan at the New Tribes Mission Missionary Training Center in Roach, MO. We had forgotten how much we miss the New Tribes enviroment. It was so encouraging to be around people whose mindset is focused on preaching the gospel to where it has never been before. David Hesselgrave, one of the leading missiologists today, had this to say about NTM:

"For years now NTM has been at the cutting edge of pioneer missionizing. Of Course, that does not happen apart from cutting-edge missionary preparation. When it comes to down-to-earth training for bilical missions, it would be difficult to improve on the kind of training provided by NTM... Their programs must be ranked among the very best available today."

Our Trip down the the Training Center reflected that quote. We were overwhelmed by how comprehensive the training and we hope to someday soon to take part in that training.
Needless to say we had a great time and Joseph was a trooper sitting in his car seat for the car rides. Well Below are several pictures enjoy!
