Dear A.C.T.S. One Family Member,

2013 is a year of answered...united action prayer...yours!

We are most appreciative of God's divine, infinite, eternal, loving, pure, unimaginable, graceful, merciful, awesome, great, salvific gift of His only begotten Son for you and yours and us and ours. Carol and Fred are very thankful for you and your prayers.

We prayed for our "Christiest", lovingest, fruitiest, joyfulest, toughest year and received fulfilment on all counts. Highlights of your and our answered action prayers include God's provision of:

• A great open door to China's massive lost Aboriginal peoples has blessed then and A.C.T.S. with a miraculous response to God's saving grace via the "Jesus for Children" film.
• A.C.T.S. "Jesus for Children" aided revival in Australia continues to keep going and growing especially amongst needy Aboriginal youth.
• A.C.T.S. One Family continues to grow on 3 continents especially amongst Action Prayer Warriors like yourself, Boston area volunteers, and our Volunteer Evangelist up and down Australia's east coast.
• The rescue of our son Freddy and his best friend, George Reynolds, from 15 hours overnight drifting in the Atlantic ocean.
• The growth of each member of our family's faith and commitment to their Father's work.
• Cardiologist's declaring Fred to be "fighting fit" after 60 days of Chinese flu and an overnight at the P.A. Hospital, Brisbane, QLD.
• Fred and Carol are recovering from mild depression with better memories, more energy, and less irritability.

We are praying for God's continued direction and guidance for the fulfilment of His will for your family and every other member of A.C.T.S. One Family throughout 2014.

We are looking forward to:

• Renewed child evangelism training beginning with an expanded outreach at the Country Music Festival in Tamworth 20-25 January 2014.
• Expansion of A.C.T.S. "Jesus for Children Tour" along Australia's east coast to Cooktown, QLD including a mission experienced team from Groton, Connecticut, USA headed by Pastor Al Garcia, 7-24 April 2014.
• Expansion of A.C.T.S. "Jesus for Children" Tour amongst China's 500 Aboriginal groups to the south coast from Hong Kong to Taiwan, Republic of Taiwan, (1 – 30 June,2014).

Please pray for your One Family's fruitfulness and development, especially for our 114 Volunteer Evangelists in bringing A.C.T.S. 2014 Outreach Plan to fruition. Particularly pray for:

• Pastor Al Garcia as he leaves a new satellite church plant of 30 people to bring the Gospel to Cuba during January 2014.
• Tony Kwan's DVD's on ‘Prayer Warriors of the Bible" will be shown to Chinese Christian communities in Hong Kong, the USA and beyond.
• Sponsorship to provide Bibles, Christian DVD's and vehicle fuel for A.C.T.S. Australian Outreaches.

Psalm 23:6 assures each of us a good, loving 2014..."Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."

We are asking God for our most celebrative year as we approach our 50th wedding anniversary on 8 February 2014...

In His provision,

Fred and Carol Schaeffer
