Dear Praying Friends,
We have had a blessed start to the month of April.  I am thankful that Australia is a country that takes the time and celebrates the Easter holiday.  Here both Good Friday and Easter Monday are public holidays.  On Good Friday we had our annual fellowship dinner.  It is normally held at our house, but this year was such a good turnout that we needed to move it to the school hall.  It was a wonderful time with fellow believers and also time to humble ourselves and contemplate the sacrifice made on our behalf.  Easter Sunday was a day filled with praise and worship to the God who has set us free and given us a living hope.  There were visitors that heard the gospel message and our prayer is that the Lord would work in their hearts even now.
The Lord continues to work at Grace Baptist Church.  We have had many visitors and there are several who have continued to attend.  I am humbled at the opportunity to serve on the field, and challenged as the steward of Christ's church.  I know that you have many requests to lift to the Lord daily, but if you can remember us in your prayers it would be much appreciated.  Thank you for taking the time to check up on what the Lord is doing in Australia.  God's blessings.

In Christ,
Mark Pitts and Family
