Your Prayers were Answered
Dear friends,
Thank you again for your prayers and support of our recent mission to Philippines, Vietnam, Hong Kong and China Nov-Dec 2017.
Our flights: Seattle-Hong Kong-Philippines-Vietnam-Philippines-Hong Kong-China-Hong Kong-Seattle. We deposited the 22 study Bibles we transported for the ZMI graduates, made some meeting arrangements and flew to Vietnam Nov. 12-18.
In Saigon (Ho Chi Min City) we did training with 84 people from many areas of the country for ZMI (Zion Ministries International): two days “A Passion for Mission” and three days from my book “Wind of Doctrine or Wind of the Spirit – how to know the difference”. We finished with prayer and prophetic ministry for all the students. Every day we road on motorcycles 1 hour each way.

November 26 we flew back to Hong Kong, had lunch with a missionary, and caught the next flight to Southwest China. We planned to fly further south near Myanmar for a seminar, however, Diane was diagnosed with appendicitis and scheduled for emergency surgery that evening. She was experiencing stomach issues and bronchitis for several days. The team went ahead without us. On Dec 4, we flew to Hong Kong and back home the next day.
We are grateful for the Lord’s grace and peace through the storm as people from around the world have been praying for Diane.
Without your prayers and financial support, we could not have accomplished the things we have done this past year. I have written two more small books. We would like to give you a copy of the book “Jesus call to Leadership” or “Jesus Foundation placing your faith on solid ground” Email us if you want one or both: denteague@gmail.com
May your new year, 2018, be filled purpose, provision, and the Presence of God.
Blessings!

2017 Zion Family Camp, Philippines
Philippines April 10-May 10, 2017
First of all, we want to thank everyone who prayed about our itinerary. Within 24 hrs. of our prayer request for clarity almost everything was settled!
We will be speaking at ZCF churches’ family camp ‘holy week’ and Easter Sunday.
The following week we fly to Zamboanga city in Mindanao to visit friends and Hope for Kids children’s home. We will be looking at repairs on a village church and preaching a revival there. The church in Fernandez Dr. needs a fresh touch of the Holy Spirit. A false apostle passed through and left some wreckage.
Third week we are with Pastor Noy Andres at youth camp.
We will be visiting the students we support and speaking in churches on Sundays. I am hoping to get another booklet completed by then. OMF Philippines has done excellent work with my books.
Besides the unexpected divine appointments to pray for the sick, counsel people, and do our best to encourage pastors, there is nothing to do…
Prayer Requests:
- Please pray for us as we prepare for this trip and also for the excellent team who cover the bases at home. David made a law in Israel: Those who watch the stuff share equal of the spoils with those who went to the battle. (1 Samuel 30:24)
- China and Vietnam are on our hearts this year but there is no schedule yet. I mentioned Africa in the last request, but that tentative trip has been postponed. I was to team with Chris Heian, but he became quite ill on his recent mission to Myanmar and Thailand. He is still not fully recovered. Thank you for praying for him.
Thank You for supporting us!

Prayer Always Works
Full Speed Ahead
Before Jesus became the Lord and Master of my life in 1971, I was quite pessimistic about the future. I was sure the world would self destruct. I had 7 reasons we would all be gone by the year 2000.
Here we are in 2017! I am more optimistic than ever! Our theme this month is “Fill your tank, start your engine, and floor it”. My optimism is not based on economic forecasts or political prospects. It is based on knowing the heart of a loving God who is still in the saving business. Jesus is still healing the broken hearted. His grace is enabling people to overcome their addictions. Families are being reconciled, hungry people being clothed and fed, and new generations of young people committing their lives to serving others as they serve Jesus.
The biggest problem in mission is not doors closing, but people who have the faith to go through the doors that are open! The harvest fields of the world are ripe, but the laborers are few.
We have been blessed this last year with many opportunities to serve the Lord overseas and here in America. We thank all those who have supported us in pray and finances to accomplish the things God has put on our hearts and the doors he has opened for the Gospel. We welcome those who would like to partner with us again this year.
Perhaps you are interested in supporting the the work based on the country we are ministering in, or the particular projects and people that we are working with or maybe you just like us and what we are doing and want to be part of building the kingdom of God. We welcome all. Just contact us through the website, email or personal phone call. We would love to hear from you.
May you have a great year in 2017. Don’t miss an opportunity to do your best for God’s glory,
Dennis and Diane Teague
BTW my new booklet “Jesus’ Peace is Yours!” is now available for free upon request.

Dennis and Diane Return From Mongolia
Dear Friends,
Thank you for praying for a miracle for Denise Loreto , one of the high school students we support in the Philippines. She had an episode recently that was diagnosed as a heart murmur and told she should not participate in PE or sports.
Wrestle with us in prayer for the property dispute in the village on the outskirts of Zamboanga city. We started the church 30 yrs ago and the local believers have kept it going and prospered there.
China Beckons Diane and I are part of a team that went to China June 18-26. We were involved in training on-fire believers from inner Mongolia.
After 18 yrs of work a revised translation of the Tibetan New Testament is just out. Any donkeys for Jesus want to saddle up?
