Prayer request

A few praises-too easy to forget to be thankful sometimes-but we are thankful and being blessed!

We found a place that is close, convenient and free to keep our sea container for a few weeks as we pack and go through everything in the house. We are just running out of room in the house for all the different “piles”.

This week is going pretty well!

We have been talking with a company in South Dakota that sells solar equipment. The best: they are Christians and feel it is part of their mission as a company to help missionaries with what they need to be on the field. We just need to figure out what we think we will use (appliances, how long, etc.) then they will figure up a system for us. We don’t know the final cost, but it looks like it will be half of what we expected!

Someone is donating a generator to Gospelink. We should be able to get it on our container. It will be situated fairly close to our home so we will be able to use it some-like when I need to use a washing machine. It will also supply power for the clinic they are building next spring, the library when that gets ready, and be a back up for the generator that runs the water cistern.


Here are a few prayer requests for us as we finish up plans for training in Colorado:

Please pray for this week-as many of you know, when you are planning to go and learn more about God, that is when Satan attacks! Please pray against crabby kids, crabby parents, for everything to work well and work right and for all the preparations for the trip. Pray that we won’t all be on edge for the week.


Please pray for us as we travel this-pray for traveling mercies, as we expect it to be about a 15 hour trip over two days.

Pray things will go smoothly at home for the gal staying at our house and with the dog.

Please pray that we will learn and retain as much information as possible.

This is probably silly, but neither Brian nor I like to do “role-playing” activities-and there will be quite a few these next few weeks!

Pray about sleep for the kids-especially Myron. He never sleeps well outside his own crib. We have 2 rooms for the 8 of us, so mom and dad will have to be in the same room as some of the kids.

Thank you for your prayers. We will try to do updates and journal entries on our blog for the next few weeks, so check it out!

We will have email, so feel free to send us a note!
