Encouragement on Evangelistic Work in MN, ND, and SD
Thank you Tom and Susan for your evangelistic work in our state—Minnesota and in our neighbor’s states—ND, SD, and the Indian Reservations. Your work is needed badly in our region and I pray with you for wisdom, money, and changing minds and hearts! (Your sister in MN)
Enjoyed the Radio Broadcast
I really enjoy your monthly newsletter. Now that my computer is working again, I listened to your radio broadcast this week for the first time. It is so interesting (your format). The two-way discussion adds depth and insight. Always glad to hear of the soul-winning success that is coming your way. (A partner from Illinois)
Using Book to Hold Evangelism Seminars
I have been holding seminars and teach some pastors, other leaders and all people that come. I have been preparing lessons from the book, You Can Touch the World. After that we do go with them to visit homes to witness together. The Seminar / class generally takes two months and is done every Saturdays. You can’t imagine how many Christians have been challenged by your book. Those who passed through my class and read the book have gone out in fully speed to share the message. And I thank God for using you to write this book. Most come to me (of course I am their mentor) and say it is inspired. They confess that they have read other books and have been doing evangelism, but they have never felt the urgency of sharing until when they got in contact with the message in this book. Some ask me to request you to come and speak to us in a seminar. BY the way they are from many denominations. (Minister from Kenya, East Africa)
Blessed by Trip to India
I wanted to share what a wonderful experience I had with Tom and the Holy Spirit an our trip to India. I was a little scared to go, but the Lord said He would be with us and help us. And He was very near and took away all my fear. It was such a growing time for me, where I learned to trust God and not myself. I also meet so many Christians, who don’t have much of this world goods but are rich in Faith. They were very helpful and loving towards us. But I also saw so many people whose eyes are dark or blinded by lies and false religion. I pray that we were a light in their dark world. And I believe that we were able to encourage the churches and pastors wherever we went. God did so many miracles in the meetings that my faith was also strengthened. I also learned so much just spending time each day with Tom on the airline flights, in prayer in the mornings, and through his messages each day. This trip was a great blessing to me a gave me a greater appreciation for the blessings that we have in this country. I would like to thank everyone who prayed and gave generously. With love in Christ, Ivan Tinklenberg

Report from Pastor in West Bengal: People are Coming to Church
Thanks for email. I am happy that you reach home. Yes, meeting was blessed for all pastors and others. Now we are reaching them, especially those who came for salvation and three families are coming.
