Arizona Reservation Ministries


The following letter is from Arizona Reservation Ministries which serves the San Carlos people just east of Globe.  This letter was from our September 8th visit with seven sophomores, juniors, and seniors from Bios who volunteered to support this ministry for eight hours on a Saturday helping them with over sixty young kids.

Dear Tim,
Greetings once again from Arizona Reservation Ministries!  Words cannot express how grateful we are that you and your team were able to join us this past Saturday.  It was clear that GOD was in control as the chaos of the afternoon unfolded.  You can be so proud of your students and the many, many ways they represented Jesus Christ to over 120 people from the San Carlos Apache Reservation!  That evening, I was looking at comments from some of the parents they had posted on Facebook.  Because of your willingness to come, and do whatever we needed, actually three generations witnessed Jesus in action.

Thank you for the $50.00 toward pizza for your team.  We had no idea how many people would join us, and are confident that the Lord multiplied 20 pizzas so that everyone except your team had seconds if requested.  Again, that was part of the Facebook conversation, and gained credibility for ARM!  I apologize that there wasn’t enough for your team, but was deeply moved by their willingness to forego lunch so that the kids could have enough.  Lord willing, we will have a dinner cook after Christmas break, so that we will be able to feed you a meal on a later trip with those funds!
