Honoring IPHC Missionaries: Hobert & Marguerite Howard
Hobert & Marguerite Howard, IPHC Missionaries to India for almost 62 years, 1951-2013
The year 2020 will be remembered for many things by us all, but for Hobert and Marguerite Howard it also meant celebrating their 92nd birthdays and their 71st wedding anniversary! The Howards served as missionaries almost 62 years in India, from 1951 to 2013, retiring at age 85.
By God’s grace, the generosity of partners in the USA and the help of other ministry colleagues, the International Pentecostal Holiness Church in India grew from less than 300 believers in Jesus in the Indian state (province) of Bihar to several thousands of believers in 10 states. Also, Indian missionaries were sent to pioneer IPHC ministry in other Asian countries including western Nepal, Bangladesh and Bhutan.
To God be the glory!
The Howards now live in a retirement community in Greenville, South Carolina, the same city where they first met in 1946 at Holmes Bible College!
As they look to the future, the desire of their hearts is for the Kingdom of God to be proclaimed and strengthened throughout India and around the world.

[Editor's Note: May I encourage all of you who would like to dial the Howards telephone and greet them. I know they would love to hear your voice. They are the two of the most loving people I know and would be blessed by your call. I talk with them daily. What a blessing they are to me. They listen attentively to my concerns and pray with me and for Greg and me. They really care about others. They have lived their lives for others. That is the motto of Holmes Bible College, "For Others."]
