Dear Praying Friends in Jesus Christ,
It hard to believe this is the year of 2025! It seems like the older we get, the more time flies. Our hearts are so thankful for what God has done in our ministry. We have books all over the world that have been translated into different languages! We had no idea our ministry would be this effective.
Our meetings have been going well, were able to finish December without canceling because of snow storms. We then traveled down South for our southern preaching tour. We got 9 inches of snow by the Gulf Coast! Everything was shut down for almost a week. We’re thankful we did not have to cancel any meetings. This storm was quite a historical event.
We have serval churches in the Pensacola area we go to every year. We also will be traveling to Ellenton, Florida to one of our favorite churches. This church is down by St. Petersburg.
Please continue to pray for our health. Mary still has some kind internal infection that bothers her eating habits. She has now lost 72 pounds. I still feel lousy once in a while due to my diabetes. I also have Paresthesia in my right leg that keeps hanging on. (Feels like a blood clot but it’s not.) It’s so much fun getting older!
We have a pretty full schedule again this year. We have a big burden of trying to get God’s people to learn God’s Word and to depend upon it for their lives.
Please continue to pray for us as we travel. We need the Lord’s safety. It is also our desire to see Him continue to bless our ministry.
May the Lord bless you as serve Him faithfully.
In His Service,
David and Mary Barker
I Peter 3:15
