Thank you for your wisdom.God is using your talents! And it is obvious our donors believe God is working through us and trust us to be good stewards. Without you, I would not be able to see the miracles I see every single day! Thank You!

What especially impressed me was learning of the very sound financial condition of the bank during these unsettling economic times. Every day we hear about banks that are failing, or not doing what they agreed to do with government bailout funds they have received. The bank that holds TRM's assets, because of its healthy balance sheet, did not need to accept bailout funds. Part of our stewardship responsibility is to do our best to secure the assets that have been entrusted to us. I feel confident that we are making our best effort to do this as investors in a sound financial institution. As far as the recession and it's impact on TRM is concerned, I have only this to say. None of us know what the future holds - it is in God's hands in every aspect of our lives. We have always trusted the Mission's finances to His divine providence and care, so why would we deter from that now? As we continue to honor Him in our work, I believe that He will continue to provide for us in any and every economic climate.

The world economy goes through many ups and downs. Sometimes we are so happy with the ups that we forget about the downs. Then when we are in the downs its difficult to see how we could ever get back up. But we do get back up, forget about the down and repeat the cycle once again.. I'd venture to say God gets more prayers and converts in the down cycles than He gets praises in the up cycles.. but that's just my up-pinion.. PTL anyway..
