That's about what we spend a month. :shock:

Very interesting and so true. There is such a disparity in so many areas in the world. Food, finances and the distribution of the gospel. In a recent post here someone mentioned a food shortage here in America.

I saw a cartoon in the paper yesterday that show a well fed man at the buffet counter. It has a sign that read, Due to the current food shortage you are liminted to only trhee trip to the buffet counter.

The next two days I will be in conferences with Bible Schhol directors from all around the world discussing how we can get more schools set up in the un-reached world. One day, maybe, I pray, we can get togwtheer to discuss how we can get food to those in so many of these countries.

I will concur with the opening statement of the photos. With inflation, the shrinking dollar, the cost are sky rocketing around the world. It is really becoming more difficult to just keep up with what has been done on the same amount of money.

On Saturday folowing the conference I leave for two weeks in India. Pray for a great outpouring of the Holy spirit. We will have the graduation of our fifth batch of students, ordination and new church dedications. Thank you for your prayers.
