Missionary Medicine Intensive

I am very excited to right now because I get to buy my ticket to the States today!!!
 Me and Eva are planning on coming to the States on October 3rd to study at Missionary Medicine Intensive (MMI) in North Carolina.  After much prayer waiting God supplied the money for us both to go. This is a huge blessing to us the community of Krinkrin and the communities up and down the river from us.We plan to be in Missouri for about 2 weeks then drive to N Carolina and be there about 3 weeks, after that we plan to drive back to Missouri and fly out of St Louis the following week. In all we plan to be there approx 6 weeks. We will be at the 2 week intensive medical course. They are training missionaries practical medical. Things that they are likely to run into out on the field. As of right now on a daily basis we have approx. 6-8 people in our house that are sick or have a machete cut that needs stitching and other general health issues.

This is a little boy from our community. A pick ax fell on his
head and made a 2 1/2 inch cut.


He got to go home with 7 stitches.
  The closest hospital is in Waspam 6-8 hours down river and most people can't afford to get the boat down river so many people die from something that could have been treated very easily. Our vision is to have a clinic-hospital in the future. A place that people can come to when they are sick and spend the night if they need.
We praying about a building in the community and we would like for you to lift this up in your prayers as well. I will keep updating you whenever I have internet.
Please continue to pray for us as we continue on this journey.
I am also in need of personal support right now. I am supported separately from my family and I have a couple needs right now. 
If God so leads you, you can mail a check to:
New Harmony Church
P.O. Box 724
Salem, MO 65560

 You can make the check payable to New Harmony Church and put my name in the memo.

 Many blessings to you and your family. Mary Lee

Day by Day



Blessings to everyone that prays for me on a daily basis. There is so much that happens Krinkrin that when looking at it from human prospective it would absolutely impossible. But somehow looking back it at it God somehow worked everything out in a wonderful and amazing way. I know that it is because of your prayers that brings me through. 
If we reach just one, none of it was in vain.

Life in Krinkrin is not easy and is almost always challenging. From the time I get up in the morning till I lay down at night it seems like I have been running all day. There is always someone that needs needs medical attention a listening ear or a little one that just needs someone to love them and show then that I will be there for them. As hard as it is at times I really enjoy everyday spent there. I would not have it any other way, these people need hope and direction. I can show them  and teach them. My daily prayer is that I would be able to shine His light into our community because it so desperately needs our loving Savior Jesus. The people need the hope and peace that only He is able to give.


I love these so much.
 I teach English to 1st - 6th grade in the school. Everyday as a teacher I am challenged in a new way as to what is the best way to teach these children. I might be there to teach English but I pray that I will be able to teach far more then that. I want to teach them that there is hope and that they can change their village. They don´t  have to go down the same dark path that their parents and grandparents did. I want to teach them that life is worth living its not just something that we do aimlessly and without more purpose then for today's food. I want to teach them that the only true meaning in life is to serve our wonderful and glorious Savior and He is the only way to abundant life.
Please remember to pray for me as these children look to me. Pray that I would be able show them Jesus.
Let my teaching fall like rain and my words descend like dew, like showers on new grass, like abundant rain on tender plants. Deuteronomy 32:2


Teaching 1st and 2nd grade

Please continue to pray for me as I minister to the young girls from our community. There is so much hopelessness. They don´t have any concept of keeping pure till marriage. It is expected that once you are at a certain age you will go sleep around with any number of men and usually you are pregnant or already have a baby at the age of 15. They look at me and my sisters and ask ...don't you like babies? My answer is ...of course I do. Then they ask... Well why don't you have one?
 How do I explain this to someone that doesn't even have a concept of what a marriage looks like. It is a huge challenge and sometimes I feel like it is impossible task but I now that it isn't because God can change anything. Please pray that I would be able to show them and teach them a better way, God's way.
For what you have done I will always praise you in the presence of your faithful people. And I will hope in your name, for your name is good. Psalms 52:9


This is the girls soccer team and many of these are the ones I am
trying to reach. Please pray for them.
Thanks again for all your many prayers.
But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love Psalms 33:18


Our God is a God of hope!!!!!!!

May the Lord bless y'all, Mary Lee
