This month has been very busy. I finally got the last ticket purchased for the missions trip to Guyana and Chile. The girls were able to raise some funds on their own which is exciting because they have seen God provide for them. Please pray that God will use this trip to encourage them to continue in helping missionary families until God shows them a different direction.
I helped a young lady move to Iowa to get a new start in life. Please pray as she is already facing some new difficulties while trying to do what God wants her to do right now. Please pray that God will reveal His will to her and that she will respond with a yes. There are new opportunities available to her that were not available before, and I look forward to seeing how God can use her and her testimony for His glory. Please pray for her family as they deal with some very hard things over the next few months.
I am excited that my sisters family is coming to visit in a few days. This will be their first trip to Maine and the ocean. We are look forward to showing them all the places we enjoy going to watch seals, pick up shells, and just enjoy God's beauty in nature.
Please pray as God may be opening some new doors for me to be able to influence more young people into doing short term missions. I truly believe that relieving the missionary wives is one of the greatest tools which can help missionaries stay on the field, but along with that, young men can preach, teach, go soulwinning, swing a hammer to build, and a lot of other things that can be a relief to the missionary husbands as well. It really doesn't matter how old or young someone is; God just wants to use people to help missionaries.
Please continue to pray for my mom. She has had a new MRI on her torn hip muscles, and she has some new orthopedic doctors she is supposed to see. Please pray they can o something that will allow the hip to heal.
