Dear family and friends – Thank you for your prayers and support for us.

Happy National Coffee Day! :–)

I’m including a link for you to download the third quarter impact report for HOPE Coffee along with information on our first HOPE Coffee Missions Trip in January 2012.  We praise God for everyone who has participated in purchasing HOPE Coffee which has allowed us to accomplish these areas of outreach.

HOPE Coffee gives back to CAM Missionaries:

By drinking Hope Coffee you can now direct a portion of your sale to any CAM Missionary by including their name on the website ordering system where it says, “I heard about HOPE Coffee from: Brian Masters (or other CAM Missionaries too)”   HOPE Coffee will make donations back to CAM International for those missionary accounts that are named in these web sales.  You can try it out by going to the HOPE Coffee store

Prayer Requests:

1. Please pray for HOPE Coffee as we supply the coffee for the upcoming event called Unleashed for the Gospel here in Dallas November 2-4 for around 3,000 people.  This will be a great opportunity to share the purpose of HOPE Coffee with many church leaders from around the area and nation.  We praise God for allowing us His favor in the eyes of those planning this event as they graciously allowed us to provide the coffee for this event along with signs and pre-packaged coffee to sell to the participants.
2. Please pray for open doors for Tammy, an intern from University of North Texas, who is helping us market HOPE Coffee to the Dallas Ft. Worth churches.

HOPE Coffee background:

Did you ever think that drinking coffee could have an eternal purpose?  Hope Coffee is an outreach ministry of CAM International.  It started with a CAM missionary in Honduras who wanted to help the Honduran church and the community by using the profits of selling high quality coffee to build shelter and provide clean water.  Check out the story online http://www.hopecoffee.org/our-story/.

All of the Honduran coffee comes from Arabica coffee beans that are grown at high elevations in the Honduras mountains. Right now there are 2 blends, one that traceable to the farmers who grew the coffee (medium roast) and another one that is a celebration of the 120 years of ministry of CAM International (bold roast).  For about the same price as a leading brand of coffee, you, your organization or your church can enjoy delicious coffee from a company whose sole mission is missions!  All of the profits go to missions.

Check out the website at www.hopecoffee.org.

Have a wonderful National Coffee Day by drinking a cup of coffee (HOPE Coffee if you have it).  :-)

Dear friends and family,

Psalm 90:17 “May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us - yes, establish the work of our hands.”

Movement Four:  Spanish Literature Bookstore and Publishing:

Bookstore: We are excited to have Eric Weaver back at CAM Center after his year in Guatemala learning Spanish.  In late May, we decided to close the physical bookstore to the public, but continue the literature ministry through website and phone sales.  Again, the favor of the Lord has been upon our team as we have received permission from Libros Alianza to distribute the following two new ministry tools for Latin churches who use the Spanish hymnal – Celebremos Su Gloria. 

• With many thanks to Ivan Mungia, the Mexican programmer, our Presentation Hymnal 2.0 (similar to PowerPoint) will be released in August which provides computer projection of the 652 hymns.
• Also, the much anticipated Gloria 3.0 (electronic music box) should be released in September which allows Latin churches to have musical background to the 652 hymns in the Celebremos Su Gloria hymnal.

Pray that these products will help many Spanish-speaking believers worship our Lord and Savior around the world.

Three Answers to Prayer:

1. Thank you for praying for the August 3rd meeting with a business team.  It went well.  We are beginning our due diligence research for the business plan which will help us determine the plausibility of launching another kingdom business for CAM.
2. Thank you for praying for our programmer who is working this weekend on the final conversion of our Spanish website of www.obrerofiel.com.
3. Thank you for praying for HOPE Coffee.  Last week, while the HOPE Coffee team was building a new house for a poor family in Honduras, they were able to share the Gospel with the husband and he trusted Christ!  

Thank you for partnering with us in ministry!  Have a fantastic weekend!

Dear friends and family,

Psalm 90:17 “May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us - yes, establish the work of our hands.”

Movement Three:  Business as Mission:

Late April and May found God’s favor being poured out on CAM by connecting us with two business people who have offered CAM several business opportunities.  Over these past few months, we have performed due diligence research on these opportunities and are still engaged in the learning and research mode.  We have narrowed the list to two specific businesses; one that would employ Latins around the world to sell a helpful product which would give them connections to make disciples, and another one that would provide income for CAM International’s operating expenses.  Please pray for wisdom, discernment, and courage to know God’s will in each of these current and future opportunities.

 

Please pray for an important meeting this Wednesday, August 3rd as we meet with one of these men about forming a partnership together.

Thank you for your partnership with us in ministry….
