Gary Lester, serving in Australia, is trusting the Lord through a challenging season in church planting. Over the past quarter, their church has experienced changes, with several families moving away or becoming less involved due to life circumstances and health concerns. While these transitions can feel discouraging, they remain confident in God’s sovereignty and continue pressing forward in the work. 

Despite the challenges, there have been encouraging moments. A recent service brought visitors, including family members of a regular attendee, opening doors for the Gospel. These opportunities serve as reminders that God is still working, even in difficult seasons, and that seeds are being planted that can bear fruit in time.

On a personal note, Gary also shared the blessing of celebrating a 40th wedding anniversary, thanking the Lord for His faithfulness over the years. Through both the highs and lows of ministry, he remains committed to serving faithfully and trusting God to build His church.
