OBC must keep a global focus for evangelism

May 15th, 2007

I am in route to Kazakhstan to preach at a pastor’s conference. I ask you to pray for Dennis Wilson and me as we minister and encourage our friends.

I am writing from the Amsterdam airport where we are waiting on our plane to Almaty. After breakfast, I walked into the airport meditation room to have my quiet time. I met a devoted chaplain who works in the airport ministry. He provided a Bible and told me of his work. Six Muslims kneeling in prayer were also occupying  the small prayer room. I opened the Bible and had my devotional – praying that we might learn better how to touch the world in Jesus’ name.

As I sit in this world-class airport, it seems as if I am watching the world pass by. It is truly a picture of all the nations of the world and a reminder that we must endeavor to reach our world with the Gospel.

I will have much to report after I return. I ask you to pray for me daily that I might be bold and loving toward those with whom I come in contact. I am praying the same for all of you.

Pastor Ted Traylor

P.S.  We arrived in Almaty early Tuesday morning. We are 11 hours ahead of Pensacola time. Our dear friends met us at the airport. We had a big breakfast and will now be off to the conference site.
