Dear Partners for the Kingdom,
It seems that we are always in transition in our lives….we have been on the road again! We started off on Tuesday, April 13th from Oceanside, CA, on a cross-country journey that ended up taking 18 days! This trip was meant to be dual-purposed: visiting friends and also, seeking God, as to our next ministry location. Our first stop was in Phoenix, AZ, to visit our friend, Donna. The next day was a LONG day of driving to the small town of Gateway, Colorado to stay overnight with two very special missionary friends, Chick and Lynda! Our third day, we headed to YWAM Heartland in Kansas City, MO, where Mike and Caron were very gracious hosts to us. We then headed to Little Rock, Arkansas to spend time with Don’s cousin, Leonard (and the Best Man at our wedding in 1966!) who was dying of cancer. While in the Little Rock area, we spent a few days at the YWAM Base in Ozark, AR, where Jim and Barb were our very kind hosts. As we were driving back to the Little Rock Veterans Hospital, we received word that Don’s cousin had died that same day. We feel blessed that we had the to pray with him before, while he was alive. The family asked Don to officiate at his military funeral, which was very moving. Although it was a sad occasion, it was good to see family from MO, CO, and TX. All in all, we
ended up being in the Little Rock area for 12 days! Originally, it was not our plan, but God had other plans! On April 28th, we drove to Nashville, TN and visited the YWAM, Nashville Base . Once again, we were treated that famous YWAM hospitality by Tasha, and The Trabers! Finally, on April 30th, we arrived in Carthage, NC, the final leg of our trip. We’re still a bit tired, but little by little, we are getting settled. We will be working with Pastor Jim Boyte of Good News Community Church for a period of two to four months. During this interim period, we are praying and seeking God as to where He will have us serve next. We are still planning to look at two more YWAM Bases, as we look to God for our future placement.
Let us restate what we are going to be doing here in North Carolina. Pastor Boyte has been given the rights to a great software that could be used for global missions and training. This software has the capability of connecting
500 churches, mission agencies, missionaries and their supporters all at the same time in “real time.” Can imagine millions of people being informed and trained at the same time? The greatest cost in the business Christian world is on-going training, but with this software, you can have everyone learning on-line, at minimal costs. Travel costs, such as airfare and visas will be eliminated, as no one needs to travel to a far away missions conference. This is only one possible way of using this innovative software. There are many other ways that it could be used for the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, to fulfill the Great Commission of Matthew 28: 18-20.

Dear Family in Christ,
Many things happened when we were in North Carolina that guided us to our next step in missions.
We have recently decided to make a change and look for a new mission agency, but we are also open to relocating to another YWAM Base. The base here,
Youth With A Mission, Chico/ Springs of Living Water is primarily a retreat and conference center. The staff is required to work in their department, plus work in the conference center-side of the ministry. The work load has proven to be too much for Beverly. Her health has been affected, with her Psoriasis flaring up, along with some feet problems, making it difficult for her to be on her feet for long periods. Also, Don has been frustrated in not being able to use his spiritual gifts of administration and organizational skills to their full potential.
Our supporting church in NC has offered us a 2 to 4 month window to serve and help out at the church. Like you, they are and have been supporting us in our missions work. This is not a salary position. We will remain in the status as missionaries.
You may be wondering, “What are Don and Beverly going to be doing at the church?” The pastor, Jim Boyte has been given the rights to a great software
that could be used for global missions and training. We are excited about this! This software has the capability of connecting 500 churches, mission agencies,
missionaries and their supporters all at the same time in “real time.” Can you imagine millions of people being informed and trained at the same time?
The greatest cost in the business and Christian world is on-going training, but with this software, you can have everyone learning on-line, at minimal costs.
Travel costs, such as airfare and visas will be eliminated, as no one needs to travel to a far away missions conference. This is only one possible way of using
this innovative software. There are many other ways that it could be used for the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, to fulfill the Great Commission of Matthew 28:18-20.
I hope this gives you some idea of what we will be doing during this transition in our lives.
You can invest your dollars in God’s Kingdom through us. Your financial support to us is Tax-Deductible. Please make check out to Good News Community Church, and attach a ‘post-it note’ with our names. They will be processing our support money.
We will be making the transition right away. We hope to be serving with Pastor Jim Boyte at the end of April. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call us. Again, let us say that this is not a salary position. We are very grateful for your friendship and partnership with us.

Happy New Year from Don and Beverly!
We hope that your Christmas was warm and peaceful. As many of you know, our daughter is a Flight Attendant with Southwest Airlines. When we started writing this letter, we were on a flight from Baltimore to San Diego, and for the first time, our daughter actually worked our flight! The only stipulation was that we had to spend the night at the airport to be first in line on the Stand-by list! We feel so blessed to be able to fly at no cost, when there is space available. We were going to visit Beverly’s mom in Oceanside for New Year’s, before heading back to Chico, to start work on January 4th. Here at the Chico YWAM Base, Don is continuing his work in P.R. and Beverly now works in the Hospitality Dept.
Our Christmas break in California, North and South Carolina was very successful. Our main supporting churchhas brought up our total support to 76%. We want to thank Pastor Jim Boyte of Good News Community Church in
Carthage, NC for his commitment to us. We are planning a mission’s conference for the church in October of 2010. When we travel back east in October, may we also visit your church? We would love to include you in
our conference schedule.
We are achieving our support goals because of Good News Community Church. We would also like to thank some very special friends from our former Shepherding group in San Jose, who have given us a one-time gift for our
dental needs. Thank you to Don and Gloria Luna! If you would like to invest in our ministry, either monthly, or with a one-time gift, please send any financial support to: Youth with a Mission (YWAM) 15850 Richardson Springs Road, Chico, CA 95973. This is our mailing address, too. By the way, it is tax-deductible, and we will send you receipts. Make checks payable to YWAM, and attach a ‘post-it note’ with our names.
Serving Him Together,
Don and Beverly Dennison
