Ernest
and Effie Dyck are missionaries with EFCA
ReachGlobal. They served in Venezuela for several
years. When it became too dangerous, they moved to
Rainier, OR. Recently they have taken some missionary
trips to the Dominican Republic. In August 2017 they
visited with the husbands & wives individually to
get to know them. On a second trip, Ernest was told
tgat they would be dedicating time and discussion for
transitions to a house church movement. Ernest met
with the pastors and was able to share his passion,
experiences and content of house church churches in
other Latin American countries. They agreed that this
was their future direction. Ernest encouraged them to
think in terms of a 5 year plan and they worked on
some goals. By use of internet/ virtual connections
they are able to continue coaching and answering
questions as they guide these congregations into the
kingdom expansion. During the time he was in DR,
Effie was able tl spend some time with their daughter
and her family.
Please pray that as they live out this crucial moment in their ministry, they might continue to be an encouragement to these churches and that they know when to make a return visit.

In Sept.-Oct MCT traveled to Poland to do some cement floor work. Feb. 9 – March 2nd, a team went to Cebu, Philippines to replace 2 cabins at Camp Beto. Their part of the project was to supply the material costs, with the Philipinos supplying craftsmen and volunteers to lead and supplement MCT’s efforts. We look forward to hearing a report on this project in their next newsletter.
