And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches and glory in Christ Jesus. This issue of ESI Today focuses on our faithful Father who has supplied the needs of over 2000 Christians to serve with ESI in Morocco, Turkey, Hungary, Czech Republic, Kazakstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Russia, Ukraine and China. For me, the most exciting time of year is ESI's summer training, when I get to meet these people face to face. On the first day of training, ESI team members bubble with excitement. As I shake hands and give hugs to smiling people, it's easy to forget that for many of them, joining the ESI team has been a lengthy process.
Most candidates face fears and challenges in going overseas.
Likewise, most candidates have miraculous stories of the way God has met their needs. ESI decided to take her on faith, believing that God would provide the rest. Today, this teacher has extra in her account that will help her resettle when she returns to the US this summer. God has really taught me that everything is under His control and will come to pass according to His timetable. It can even be a Christian witness in itself.
