“THE PROCESS IS THE END. FOR IT IS THE PROCESS THAT IS GLORIFYING TO GOD.” --Oswald Chambers

"This life therefore, is not godliness but the process of becoming godly, not health but getting well, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise. We are not now what we shall be, but we are on the way. The process is not yet finished, but it is actively going on. This is not the goal, but it is the right road. At present, everything does not gleam and sparkle, but everything is being cleansed." --Martin Luther

Prayer for next Zambia trip

Some of you may know this by now, and sorry in the delay for those who don't (it's been a busy week!), but... OUR CONTAINER MADE IT TO THE SCHOOL LAST WEDNESDAY!! YEAH!!!!!!!
Thank you SOOOOO much for your prayers these past 6 months or so to get it packed and shipped and through customs (duty free even!!!!) and to the school! It's amazing and so thrilling to know it is there and just waiting for Brian!!!!! So PRAISE GOD!

Prayer requests-
Brian and his dad are leaving on Sunday, Sept 7th and will return Monday, Sept 29th. In that three weeks they hope to get the house livable-roof/ceiling, running water/plumbing, etc.

Please pray for:
safety in travel-they leave Sunday, Sept 7th at 7 am and get there at 9 pm on Monday night. They leave to come back on Sunday, Sept 28 at 1:30 and get back that Monday at 1:30 pm
all the supplies they will need to purchase will be available (a quick praise that the exchange rate has gone up some)
that they will accomplish all that needs to be done in a safe, timely, efficient way
they will have fun and fellowship with the bible school staff that is on campus, continuing to develop relationships
health (for Bri, Wendell, and all those at home)
Kelly Jo and kids as they start a new school year
Brian's mom, Carole
The kids will be good listeners, that the time will go by quickly for them as they are without dad again for 3 weeks
final support to come in while Brian is gone
Kelly Jo doing preparations here to leave at the end of October
FOR OUR HOUSE TO SELL (as someone said, time to switch from container prayers to major house sale prayers!)
Zambian people as they finish mourning the death of a beloved president, who was a believer. 90 days after his funeral (9-3) there will be an election for the new president. Please pray that the peaceful democracy they have had and been known for will continue. That they will celebrate the President's legacy by having peaceful elections

Brian & Kelly Jo
