Thanksgiving for Jonathan and Margaret Lamb's 10 Years of Service with Langham Preaching: Blessings to them in their future service to our Lord!


Dear Jonathan and Margaret,

What a blessed ten years! We give thanks
to God for all that He has done through
you during that decade.

It all got off to a wonderful start at our
First International Consultation at High
Lea Conference Center. There was such
great enthusiasm and anticipation of what
God was going to do through this new
effort to establish expository preaching
movements in countries throughout the
world. It was a very exciting time. And
none of us who were there will ever forget
how the excitement was suddenly taken to
another level when the fire alarm sounded
in the middle of the night twice! – and we
all (including Uncle John in his pajamas!)
came pouring out of the buildings! By the
end of the week, we were off and running,
and the exhilaration has never ended!

Since that blessed beginning, expository
preaching movements have indeed been
established in many places. In the process
of leading this work, the two of you have
encouraged and lovingly served so many
of us. What a joy it has been to labor with
you! We give thanks to God that He has
allowed us to know your gentle and kind
manner.We certainly admire your excellent
gifts for service, but we are most thankful
for your gracious way of relating to all
people.

We pray that the Lord will guide, protect,
and strengthen you as you take your next
steps in His service. We pray that the Holy
Spirit will encourage you day and night.

With much love to both of you!

Rod and Becky Wood, Facilitator
