PRAYER & PRAISE

PRAISE:

·         Brian’s parents had a safe and enjoyable two weeks with Brian at the bible college.  They arrived there safely and are back and recovering from jet lag.

·         God’s safety and protection on Brian’s drive home in the dark.

·         The house is progressing; Brian is learning some of the language and much more about the culture, and developing some good relationships with the nationals.

·         Cybil & Mariah had a great week at bible camp, Kelly Jo and all the kids are surviving well

 

PRAYER REQUESTS:

·         Our container is scheduled to arrive in Salalah, Oman on June 21st, and then to Dar Es Salaam on June 25th.  Brian will be contacting the shipping company there this week.  Please pray that communication goes well, that the clearing of customs will go smoothly, that we wouldn’t need to pay duty as new residents, and that the container could at least get to the college before Brian leaves on July 11th.

·         The evenings and weekends get very long for Brian, as it is dark by 6 pm usually, and everyone is in bed around 8.  When he is not working, it tends to get very lonely.  After Kelly Jo and kids are done with VBS this week, they don’t have anything on the calendar to do for the last three weeks Brian is gone.  Pray that the time for everyone will go quickly.

·         Pray for Paul and his wife who are considering joining Gospelink in the work in Zambia.  Pray that God would make it abundantly clear if this is where He is calling them.
