Two Special Guests

We had the pleasure of getting to know two special guests at SonSet Solutions. The first, Dr. Tim Gilmour (right), is a professor of electrical engineering and computer science. He spent his sabbatical with us and worked primarily on developing the next generation of our Power Quality Monitor. You can read more about him on our webpage: https://sonsetsolutions.org/a-sabbatical-with-purpose/. 

Our second visitor also came with a specific purpose: to get training that would enable him to pursue his long-term goal to serve in Asia-Pacific as a radio planter. Trevor Schwarze (below) completed his pre-field training at Mission Training International in Colorado earlier this month, and he has relocated to the Asia-Pacific region already. Trevor appreciates all he has learned during training here at SonSet Solutions. Trevor's story is also featured on our webpage:  https://sonsetsolutions.org/empowering-our-partners/.

VBS praise

We have had several churches collect funds for SonSet Solutions through their Vacation Bible School programs. Please praise the Lord with us that the gospel was shared to many children as well as for His provision for SonSet Solutions. The churches all surpassed their initial funding goals to provide generously for SonSet® radios or Solar Media Centers.​

Jean was also blessed to be able to serve at McCoy's Vacation Bible School. She taught first and second grades, and five children raised their hands to speak to a teacher/helper. Please pray for these five that God would continue to pour his word into their lives.
