David & Sheila McIlroy, Starbuck, WA

We experienced an unplanned outreach. Dave wanted to get a group together to do something for Valentine’s Day for me (Sheila). He checked out a local restaurant, but it wasn’t going to be open. Undaunted, Dave and our friends decided to cook a dinner at the church for a few couples. Well, at the end of the day we invited the whole town. Thirty-eight people came, and we enjoyed a delicious meal. Several of the guests had never been in our church. After dinner, we played a game, and everyone had a great time.

One lady loved the idea and decided to do it again. This time 45 people came! Now we’re thinking of doing this once a month. Praise the Lord for this good outreach. Many who don’t attend church are becoming comfortable with being in our church building and getting to know us and the church family!

This is ranch country in southeast Montana. It’s definitely rural! Pray for this missionary family and church as they study, teach and share God’s Word.

One couple started a Sunday School. God grew it into a church and brought Village Missionaries. 60 years later, it’s a good time to celebrate.
