CAR PROBLEMS

Patti and I Just finished our 5th week in Danderhall (Calvary Edinburgh). On our way home the car started overheating. It made a noise like belt or something was loose or slapping and then stopped. I only see the one belt but it looks fine. Anyway we were able to get home by waiting for the engine to cool and starting off again for 5 - 8 miles at a time until we got home. I am taking it in to the shop today. The prayer request would be two-fold. One, something simple with not to much damage... and provision financially to take care of the bill.

PRAISE FROM DANDERHALL

The past 5 weeks have been wonderful in Danderhall (Calvary Edinburgh). I filled in... teaching through the book of Colossians while Patti lead in Worship. They are a small body of very mature believers. They have gone through a rough patch with a few families leaving the fellowship for various reasons.

Prayerfully Dan And Pat (Pastor & Wife) have had a wonderful time on Holiday visiting family in the States. a chance for renewal and vision.

We had a visitor last Sunday. Zsuzsi from Hungary who is working in Edinburgh. She is in her early 20s. She says she will be coming back.

PRAY FOR DAN

Our friends Dan and Anna are missionaries in Alomos Mexico. Dan is still in prison. it could be another month before his case is reviewed. things move slow and the government is corrupt. Dan has had a fantastic prison ministry. people follow him everywhere. He is teaching constantly. Pray for Anna as she is with out Her husband, pastor, and friend. Pray that the lawyer they have hired will do his job, and pray for his salvation. Pray for Dan and his health as the conditions are poor. Pray for those he is able to minister to. Pray for his release and his spiritual condition to stay high.

PRAY FOR OUR FINANCES

I never want to even write about this; but if you are reading this blog then you are part of our prayer support and I covet your prayers over this issue. You know I am not begging you for money... Just your prayers concerning it.

I have been on the job search here for over six months to no avail. I have had only 2 interviews. Things are tight and there is a push to hire nationals.

I have never been an immigrant minority before... it has been very interesting and frustrating.

Please pray for a job or that the Lord provides through donations.

So pray as the Lord leads on this issue. I know times are difficult for all. We are so blessed by our Faithful donors, and especially those who keep us in prayer.

PRAYER FOR THE GALA

This is a city wide event that is supposed to be for the children. it has become fairly commercial and the cost for the children overall is a bit much. It is held in a very large park and there are booths for food and events, as well as bouncy castles and the like. Our fellowship joined the event last year to get involved with the community and provided a free event which everyone thought was tremendous. We gave away free prizes to the children and it really got some attention. Though we are not to openly proselytize at the event we are handing out fliers for the church with some basic information. This year we are doing an event booth and a bouncy obstacle course both of which are offered for free. Please pray for success with our becoming know within the community, opportunities to share the Gospel (God's Free Gift of Salvation) and that we don't catch too much flack from others that charge for their events.
