Places to Go

Who Will Go?



Just over five weeks until September 15... we fly to Frankfurt, then on to Calcutta, India. Yahoo- as of today, tickets are purchased -- thankfully God provided great rates.
Passports and visas are updated and we've been shot with essentials.The other wee details such as messages, finalizing the Bible studies and coordinating topics are progressing well.






One of the cities where we are scheduled for teaching, speaking, singing and whatever other opportunity arises is Hyderabad, India.


While in Hyderabad (Oct 13-14), the AICOCIM (All India Congress On Church In Mission) takes place. What an honour to be part of such an event.

Charminar

Charminar is a major landmark in Hyderabad. With four graceful minarets, it was built as a memorial for plague victims.

What a beautiful structure..there are more to come after a few days with some biking friends.


How timely that this summer several women have gathered on Wednesday nights to study the names of God. We serve a God that provides, who sees all, knows all and goes before us. He has already planned the our lives for this time in Asia. We are humbled and honoured by all the prayers, love and support from each of you.


Happy Serving HIM!

Coghill's New Adventure

SEASONED WITH SALT - Global Info
"Who will go?"
Hello family and friends,
In response to an urgent request from several Asian countries, Eileen Stewart-Rhude, executive director of the Women's Commission of World Evangelical Alliance, has invited Bob and me to travel with her in Asia for one month this fall, to do leadership training and development.
We three will speak, teach and encourage our Christian brothers and sisters in India, Nepal and Thailand.
We want to give you the opportunity to participate in this global 'kingdom-building' event.
First, your prayers are most important. Unless God goes before us we dare not go. A prayer
guard will be in place within the month—we need and welcome warriors.
Second, we are all volunteers. Our personal budget will be $12,000. All funds raised will go to the complete project in Asia.
Third, many hands are needed to accomplish what God has planned. Brian and Cathy Cook are
organizing a full day of family fun and activity on July 25 in Fergus. They welcome your
involvement. Details for that event, as well as our itinerary, will be posted on our blog spot
soon. http://www.swsalt.blogspot.com/
God has called us to a great task and has the resources necessary. I see it like a puzzle—many pieces—not a lot of pattern yet. Perhaps you hold a piece of the puzzle. If this project resonates in your spirit, let us know. We can't wait to see a beautiful picture emerge later this fall.

Happy Serving HIM!
