GLOBAL PARTNERS AROUND THE WORLD
Mitch & Laura Switzer – Morocco
After a full and wonderful time in Michigan with family, friends, and church, we have hit the ground running in Tangier! The past few months of this new term have been some of the busiest and most exciting yet for our whole family. We are continually encouraged to see our church grow and thrive in the Lord. And as our language aptitude increases, we now conduct the Sunday gathering in an Arabic/French mix—a huge stepping stone in being a church for the people of our city!
On the business front, Mitch has been steadily preparing for the first tour coming up in April. Owning this business has already opened many doors for us— including the possibility of owning our own car. With your generous help, we were able to purchase a vehicle using our business identity. Having an efficient way to get around town has been a huge blessing to us and our work.
It is now the month of Ramadan, the “holy” month of Islam. This brings with it increased pressure on our local brothers and sisters in Christ. While this is a difficult month for our church family, we nevertheless rejoice in all things and seek to be steadfast in the Lord. Please pray for the strength and safety of our local brothers and sisters throughout this month, that they may find refuge in the Lord Almighty and not fall to the enemy’s tactics. We are continually thankful for your prayers and support of our family and work in Tangier. Knowing that you are encouraging us in this work brings us much joy! Thank you for your prayers and care over us.
