1968-2008

John 12:24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone.

Beginning in 2008 the vision and bible school that God so graciously gave Wade Taylor beginning in 1968 came to an abrupt end, falling into the ground and dying.-

We now wait for God to raise up and bring forth His seed of promise in another, that the vision fail not.

Dear Friends of Pinecrest,

About a year ago, a letter was sent to you to make known the financial pressure that Pinecrest was under. The response was excellent. Most (but not all) of this pressure was lifted at that time.

Again, I wish to express my appreciation to each one of you who gave toward this need. I cannot describe the feeling of having this intense pressure lifted from me.

In the Fall of 1959 while alone praying (at Pinecrest), I was brought (spiritually) into the area of the Throne of God where a specific ministry was literally "burned" into my being. Along with this, I received a specific "calling" to train (at Pinecrest) those whom the Lord would send.

The Bible School opened in the Fall of 1968 to fulfill this calling. A short time later, the first issue of the Banner was mailed. This ministry has expanded until presently there are about 85 full time students, and over 18,000 Banners are sent through-out the world.

I have an intense desire to see the quality and the effectiveness of this ministry increase. The financial pressure that Pinecrest remains under adversely affects me, and is a great hindrance to the outworking of this vision and calling.

A Bible school such as Pinecrest cannot support itself. It is dependent upon receiving regular contributions from those who are willing to become a part of its ministry.

All costs are being held to an absolute minimum. Beyond this there is little that I can do, except to share this burden with you, and then prayerfully trust you will respond.

There is an urgent need for those who will faithfully and regularly support the ministry of Pinecrest.

Please consider becoming a part of this ministry. An envelope is included to help make this possible.

Thank you for responding to this appeal for help. Your support is truly needed at this time.

 

In His Love,

Wade E Taylor
