December 2012

We are so grateful for your guys prayers and support here are few things you can join us in prayer for currently:

While we are still here:
  1. Peace as we are learning to live simply during this time of transition
  2. Grace & Patience for homeschooling. Pray that the kids will be attentive during the transition
  3. Blessings on the families that have opened their home and shared their lives / homes with us before we go.
  4. Strengthening of relationships with family and friends as we prepare for a season apart. 
  5. Strength and grace for our families as they partner and launch us back into full time ministry. Pray for comfort and grace that only Jesus can give. Peace that passes understanding.
  6. Protection for a family of 6 as we prepare physically, financially, emotionally, spiritually for this new chapter.

 For the move to Hungary:

Van we are praying about purchasing
  1. We are praying about purchasing a car from friends who will be transitioning to do ministry in Cambodia. Pray for wisdom and financial provision. We will need to sell our car in the states hoping to get about $6,000 & the van we are looking to purchase from them they need about $8,000. We want to try to give them what they are asking because these funds will go to helping them get started in their ministry. They also have 4 kids and are giving us a good deal on the car. Pray for provision as the Lord will need to provide the extra funds. 
  2. Next semester starting Feb 2013, pray for the students who are coming, pray for us for the classes we will be teaching. I am going to be teaching the Gospel of John as well as a class on the Epistles of John.
  3. Pray for trip, we will fly from LAX on Jan 23 to London and arrive in Budapest Jan 24th. Pray for good health for all the family while traveling, safety, all our bags to arrive, as well no issues with traveling, paperwork etc.  
  4. Grace and strength as we rebuild and renew friendships and relationships with the staff and students. Pray for Kimmie with the homeschooling, kids scheduling, jet lag etc. 
These are some of our specific prayer requests. We will continue to update them and keep you guys aware of all that is going on. Thank you again. We would not be able to do all of these things with out your partnership in prayer with us.

Phil 1:3-5  I thank my God every time I remember you. 4 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 5 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,
