For over twenty years Stephen and Carolyn Crockett have lived mainly among the Moi people of Asia-Pacific. In January the dedication of the Moi New testament was held and the believers received copies of this precious book. “The Creator’s Talk has arrived” stated one of the Moi believers. As of this year, they will make at least two trips a year to Moi to encourage the believers there but for shorter stints of time. Romans 1:12 is their vision for the time they spend in Moi: “When we get together, I want to encourage you in your faith, but I also want to be encouraged by yours.” They will also spend some time with the teachers and nurses who are there for the school year, teaching the Moi children and giving medical help. They are a young group who often ask to be mentored.
It feels strange to them to only be going into Moi for short periods of time, but this will help the church to stand on their own, with more of a coaching role from Stephen and Carolyn.
Prayer Requests:
• Pray that their times in Moi would be impactful.
• Pray as Stephen assesses Bible translation progress among other people groups
• Pray for Carolyn as she gives some assistance with literacy needs.
