Tic Toc...

Our trip is rushing nearer and nearer. We're just 9 days from boarding the plane that will begin our journey. The excitiement and anticipation is building! As the mission God has prepared for us grows nigh, our need of prayer grows ever greater. Here are some specific prayer requests that you can offer up on our behalf:

· Pray for the spiritual preparation of our team and of all who we will be ministering to.
· Pray that all elements of the VBS (teachers, lessons, activities, etc.) would be effective.
· Pray that our team will step out of our comfort zones and faithfully & boldly minister when opportunities arise for one-on-one evangelism, sharing public testimonies, preaching, etc.
· Pray that many lives will be changed forever by beginning a relationship with Jesus Christ and that they would get involved and be discipled through the local church.
