CEF World Headquarters Visit


EVERY CHILD, EVERY NATION, EVERY DAY
In mid-August, we attended five days of Missionary Refresher at the CEF World Headquarters in Warrenton, MO. It was wonderful to share what God is doing in Fiji with the other missionaries and headquarters staff.  The beautiful plaza had wonderful reminders as to WHY we are CEF missionaries. We were surprised by a certificate honoring us for 35 years of faithful service with CEF. There was also a surprise birthday ice cream cake for Kent at the end of the week.

And the "Eagle" Soars!

During the first weekend of September, we headed to  Florida to register Jeremy for his freshman year at Pensacola Christian College. By the end of the week, Jeremy had moved into the dorm, bought books, and started classes for a Sport Management degree. During Greek Rush weekend, Jeremy joined the collegiate Pi Kappa and has since been selected for their intracollegiate soccer team. We are proud of our "PCC Eagle" who is making many new friends and adjusting to his new life. We are also thankful that we will have Christmas together before saying goodbye for 2 1/2 years.  Please PRAY for JEREMY as he learns to juggle the demands of his academic load and social activities.  Thus far, he's doing very well!

New Prayer Cards ~ Want One?


We're pleased to let you know that the Bryant family has a new prayer card and we would love to send one to you!  Just drop us an email at kent.bryant@cefonline.com along with your request and we will get one to you pronto! 

It's hard to believe that we have less than six months remaining of our furlough within the USA and our time is passing by so quickly.  We are still in need of approximately $2,975.00 more in monthly personal support.  This comes after a budget increase; the homegoing of several supporters during the past five years; and then, the negative effects of the world economy.  It seems like an awful lot of money to us, but once again we have the opportunity to trust in Jehovah-jireh, the God who provides!

We still have several openings in our travel itinerary that need to be filled, so please join us in praying that God will arrange our "comings and goings" and allow us to present our ministry in potentially new supporting churches.

Thanks for PRAYING!

Congratulations to the Graduate

We proudly present our high school graduate, Jeremy Kent Bryant, who officially graduated from A Beka Academy in Pensacola, FL on Saturday, May 12th, 2012, along with 393 other homeschoolers from around the USA and the world.  Jeremy received recognition for being the graduate who traveled the farthest (10,000 miles) to attend the graduation ceremony!


 
We are so proud of Jeremy!  He is adorned with a Fijian "salusalu" which signifies
honor and special recognition.
 Becky taught Jeremy from K-4 to fifth grade.  Jeremy then completed his education using
A Beka Academy DVD's under her supervision as well.   
Jeremy shared his accomplishment with Mom who deserves a lot of credit for her dedication and commitment to excellence in home schooling!

Maternal grandparents:
John & Syble DeBerry

 "Mamaw": Mrs. Lena Bryant

The extended family traveled in a van to join in on this wonderful milestone in Jeremy's life!
We all enjoyed touring the campus of Pensacola Christian College where Jeremy will begin his college education in September.  The campus is truly breathtakingly beautiful!
