TONY & HEATHER BOOK FAMILY – OCTOBER 17^TH, 2021 

Tony and Heather Book joined SEND International in 2004 and have served in two different countries and many different ministries over the years. For two terms they ministered in Manila, Philippines, working alongside both missionaries and Filipinos. Tony oversaw the Computer Department at Faith Academy and Heather subbed and helped out in the Music Department. Additionally, Heather was highly involved in the Filipino church, engaging youth and adults through evangelistic music groups and events. In 2014, the Books moved to a new ministry and field in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where they were involved with learning language and culture and church planting. To keep a visa, Tony served in the Family Connection Foundation’s Computer Department as well as getting involved with CCF’S church planting ministries. The Books and their three boys, David, Robert, and Timothy recently returned to the States for a furlough, but those plans abruptly changed due to the pressing needs of family, children, and health issues. After much prayer and counsel, they have recently resigned from SEND after 17 years of full-time ministry.
