Exciting News from Lakeside's World Outreach Missionaries and Ministries!

Your AG World Missionaries Serving In

LATIN AMERICA CARIBBEAN

"I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name." Isaiah 45:10 (NIV)

Kim and Shari Babcock were called to serve as youth, associate and senior pastors before becoming missionaries. God saw fit to put them in a position to “parent” Argentine youth through the ministry of King’s Castle in Argentina. The Holy Spirit has anointed this ministry and is raising up leaders and teens in local churches throughout the country.

Surinam - 'Bring the Fire'

Seven staff members, Dara Moux (missionary intern) and Kim & Shari Babcock will be heading to Surinam August 24. They will join up with Steve & Kim Puffpaff doing leadership training for youth workers, evangelism on the streets and whatever else the National Church and the Holy Spirit has planned. They are going out of their comfort zone but know that the Holy Spirit will meet them there and reward their faith with supernatural adventures. Please pray and believe for God's wildest dreams to come true for this trip and country.

Thank You!

Your generous donations allowed us to replace the faulty windows, repaint (inside and out), and replace the curtains in the girls' bathroom with aluminum doors. The office is so much warmer now! Thank you Lakeside!

Strategic Move

Their one-year commitment with Grace International is complete and they are moving to a new location in NZ. In January, they moved their family from Auckland to the Hibiscus Coast where they are planting a new church where Nathan will be the lead pastor. Hibiscus Coast is one of the fastest growing areas in New Zealand. It currently has a population of sixty-five thousand people, and it is expected to have dramatic growth in the next few years. With the influx of people, this is a strategic place to begin a fresh new ministry and outreach.

We can’t thank you enough for partnering with us in this missions endeavor to share God’s love and message of hope in this extremely secularized country!

Blessings from the Turneys - Nathan, Lisa, Elijah, Zachary & Lily

YOUR MISSIONARIES SERVING MONGOLIA

Community Center Project Update

Fall of 2023 they were in the U.S. for a short itineration to raise funds for the community center project. They raised enough money to start the initial construction. Plans have been drawn up, and the contractor was ready to begin construction. However, they experienced delays which has slowed down progress. They had a bout of discouragement, but are holding onto Jesus and believing that He wants this community center to be built and He will make a way for that to happen. Mongolia has very COLD winters and the building season is short. We thank all of you that gave into this project. We ask that you pray for permissions approvals so that this center will be built and used by God to bless the community of Govi-Altai.

Loving on our community through our Community Center

Besides our regular weekly classes, this year we also hosted an end of school event for the children of local social workers (top left), an English class for government workers (top middle), regular activities for special needs kids from a local school (top right), GIRLS NIGHT! (bottom left), and regular activities for orphaned kids through a local social worker. (bottom right)

Harsh Winter Needs

Last February, after a very harsh winter, our team brought hay bails, oats, and other supplies to herdsmen in need.

Our family is incredibly grateful to all of you that faithfully give and pray to support our work in Mongolia. None of what we do would be possible without our awesome support team. The testimonies and stories above are YOUR stories too, because you make it possible for us to be here living out God’s calling in in our lives. You are loved and appreciated! THANK YOU!
