keeping in thoughts and prayers PHIL TANIS who i knew very briefly from his family in bellflower and attendance at bethany CRC ...his brother Jim went to Calvin..i knew him a little better than Phil...and now Phil is working for this organization (world communion of reformed churches, wcrc, also see http://new.wcrc.eu.server3.reformiert-info.de/ ) ...my impression of Phil was that he is a VERY SERIOUS person..which is good in many regards, but sometimes comes off as "more important" than others around him..; so we all have things to work on, and need grace to grow in Christ and become a better "aroma" for the Good News...; let us pray for Phil to continue to grow and show genuine love and affection for those around him.. email thoughts, prayers, & encouragement to Phil at
this is my blogspot devoted to being a MISSIONARY wherever you are, whoever you are (for Christian believers)...I myself started out doing mission work in the Philippines, and later in Costa Rica ...and later various other locations not only abroad but also in the USA. I hope to post some thoughts & links & stories about being a missionary to inspire fellow believers !
