We are coming to the U.S. in April and will be in Baton Rouge for 6 weeks for the birth of Benjamin, our daughter Elizabeth’s second child. Here is some more pictures of our boat and our daughter’s visit in December. The January Newsletter is below.

“And the Lord said unto the servant, go out into the highways and the hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.”

We aim to go to the ends of the earth to fill the house of the Lord.  We believe 2008 will be a great year.  The new boat is finally being prepared to fulfill its purpose.  We are planning to take it out the first part of January.  The final touches are being make to make it feel like home (as much as possible).  

We have dreamed, prayed, waited, believed, worked and persevered to see this day, and you were with us in it all.  Thank you so much for believing in us and with us.  May we go out together to compel them to come in.

There are a lot wells to dig. Digging wells for a village is the strategy the Lord has given to us to open doors. A well is a constant reminder to the people of the love of God. The Samaritan woman knew that Jacob had dug that well and it always reminded her that she was part of something great. For $200.00 we are able to dig a well that opens the door to the hearts of people for the Gospel and also helps reduce the infant mortality rate in the communities. (If you give money for us to dig a new well please notify us on your donation

We are believing that God will do great things in 2008 and we want to be there when He is doing it.

Pray for our leaders.

Your missionaries,

James and Celia Williams
