DECEMBER 2017

God has richly blessed Rose and me in our foreign mission work through the year. I want to thank the congregations and individual Christians who give generously to make this important work possible. For almost 20 years we lived in other countries, working for the Lord Jesus. Since returning to the U.S. at the end of 1994, I continue to be occupied in foreign work. This has involved numerous campaigns and other kinds of work in various nations. In more recent years, I mostly teach in Bible schools with the emphasis being on training preachers. It has been a real blessing to me and I have no doubt that the work is vital. This year my work followed what is a pretty typical pattern. In January, I was in India with coworkers, Don Oelze and Bryant Perry. In March, as usual, I traveled to Ukraine. Kerry and Tommie Cain were with me. They have been frequent workers with us for

many years in the city of Kremenchuk. Rose usually goes with me to Ukraine but had

to miss this trip. In April, I taught in the Bible school in Piedras Negras, Mexico. It was my first time there. In May, Rose and I traveled with Kenny and Belinda Gardner to Querétaro, Mexico. I have taught in the school there about 20 times, beginning in 2001. Kenny, who teaches at the Brown Trail School of Preaching, has been with me several times. In June, I taught in preacher training schools in two locations in the West African country of Ghana. Rose and I both taught classes at the Teton Family

“…GO INTO ALL THE

WORLD AND PREACH THE

GOSPEL TO EVERY

CREATURE…”

Taking the saving gospel To a lost world

Encampment in Wyoming in July. In August, I was back in India to teach preachers in two different cities. My coworker was Dennis Thompson, a very capable teacher from the Wylie, Texas congregation. Dennis had the opportunity to teach in India once before when he was living in Abu Dubai, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. Rose and I were back in Ukraine in October. We were accompanied by Don and Elnora Oelze, our usual coworkers on this autumn trip. Don has worked with me there many times—first in 2001. Here at home I have had several preaching opportunities and have given some mission reports.

Late in December, Rose and I will travel to Pago Pago in American Samoa. We lived in this small, island nation for three years beginning early in 1991. The All Samoan Workshop is held each December. When living in Pago Pago, we attended two such events. One was in Apia, the capital of the nearby country of Samoa…known as “Western Samoa” until 1997. The other was in Auckland, New Zealand where many Polynesians live and there is a Samoan congregation of the church. In the coming lectureship, there will be classes during the day and a nighttime assembly—a five-day affair. This year Rose will teach a ladies’ class and I will be the speaker each night. The workshop begins on Christmas day. We will be home only about a week before I leave for India. Please keep us in your prayers! Your coworker,

Ronald Coleman

“The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul:

The testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple.

The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart:

The commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes.”

Everyday Preventive Actions That Can Help Fight Germs, Like Flu

CDC recommends a three-step approach to fighting the flu.

CDC recommends a three-step approach to fighting influenza (flu). The first and most important step is to get a flu vaccination each year. But if you get the flu, there are prescription antiviral drugs that can treat your illness. Early treatment is especially important for the elderly, the very young, people with certain chronic health conditions, and pregnant women. Finally, everyday preventive actions may slow the spread of germs that cause respiratory (nose, throat, and lungs) illnesses, like flu. This flyer contains information about everyday preventive actions.

How does the flu spread?Flu viruses are thought to spread mainly from person to person through droplets made when people with flu cough, sneeze, or talk. Flu viruses also may spread when people touch something with flu virus on it and then touch their mouth, eyes, or nose. Many other viruses spread these ways too.People infected with flu may be able to infect others beginning 1 day before symptoms develop and up to 5-7 days after becoming sick. That means you may be able to spread the flu to someone else before you know you are sick as well as while you are sick. Young children, those who are severely ill, and those who have severely weakened immune systems may be able to infect others for longer than 5-7 days.

What are everyday preventive actions?• Try to avoid close contact with sick people.

• If you or your child gets sick with flu-like illness, CDC recommends that you (or your child) stay home for at least 24 hours after the fever is gone except to get medical care or for other necessities. The fever should be gone without the use of a fever-reducing medicine.

• While sick, limit contact with others as much as possible to keep from infecting them.

• Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.

• Wash your hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand rub.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth. Germs spread this way.

• Clean and disinfect surfaces and objects that may be contaminated with germs like the flu.

• If an outbreak of flu or another illness occurs, follow public health advice. This may include information about how to increase distance between people and other measures.

CS HCVG-15-FLU-104 10/24/2016 Last Updated October 24, 2016

What additional steps can I take at work to help stop the spread of germs that can cause respiratory illness, like flu?

• Find out about your employer’s plans if an outbreak of flu or another illness occurs and whether flu vaccinations are offered on-site.

• Routinely clean frequently touched objects and surfaces, including doorknobs, keyboards, and phones, to help remove germs.

• Make sure your workplace has an adequate supply of tissues, soap, paper towels, alcohol-based hand rubs, and disposable wipes.

• Train others on how to do your job so they can cover for you in case you or a family member gets sick and you have to stay home.

• If you begin to feel sick while at work, go home as soon as possible.

What additional preventive actions can I take to protect my child from germs that can cause respiratory illness, like flu?

• Find out about plans your child’s school, child care program, or college has if an outbreak of flu or another illness occurs and whether flu vaccinations are offered on-site.

• Make sure your child’s school, child care program, or college routinely cleans frequently touched objects and surfaces, and that they have a good supply of tissues, soap, paper towels, alcohol-based hand rubs, and disposable wipes on-site.

• Ask how sick students and staff are separated from others and who will care for them until they can go home.

Everyday preventive actions can help slow the spread of germs that can cause many different illnesses and may offer some protection against the flu.
