Jack first wanted to go to Ireland
Even then, work had already begun in Ireland. As far back as 1949, Jack had wanted to go to Ireland as a missionary. This didn’t work out for him, but he never forgot the country. In 1977, Jack and I took a team of twenty-three young men and women from New Life Church to work alongside a Baptist church in the middle of Dublin. The church continued to invite us, and every year a team from New Life went to do evangelism. In 1983, two New Life families moved there permanently, and Ireland became WHM’s second field.
The mustard seed continued to grow. Our next field was Amsterdam where the church plant is now led by Dutch Christians. London soon followed. From London, we are also reaching into India. All told, since 1994, nine mission fields have been added to WHM. Each one is unique.
And what has happened in Uganda where everything started? God brought many WHM missionaries to Uganda’s western mountains. Churches have been planted and a school opened. A medical team meets many needs, the New Testament has been translated into Lubwisi, and clean water has come into the community.
Today, the mustard seed has grown into a tree through which nineteen nations of the world are hearing the gospel. We have much to be thankful for. I celebrate what God has done through our weakness, driving us to prayer to seek his glory.
This section includes talks and reflections from recent years that I hope reflect the weakness and the glory, the dependence on prayer, and the joy of promises fulfilled. God has truly done “exceedingly abundantly” above all that we could ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF THE SEED.
