Praise and Prayer May 29, 2018

What a privilege it is to be a child of the King and in the service of the King!  Thank you for joining us at the Throne of Grace to intercede for lost souls in France, particularly in the area where God has placed us. 

This month, we produced a new church flyer to continue to distribute to the people in this area.  The new flyer features the testimony of Mr. and Mrs. R. who came to Christ from an atheist background through the ministry of our church and the impact of God’s Word.  Besides continuing to use the flyer in our own town, we would like to also target other small towns near Saint Medard, especially those west of here in a large area void of evangelical churches.  Please pray for our small church to grow spiritually and in number and be able to better reach people in this area.

Praise for:


- the good finish to the English club outreach this month, with a special program for the parents.  The kids did a great job with their skit, verse and songs, and Sylvia brought out her “friend” for a special appearance.  The Gospel was clearly presented.  There was a good turnout of family members.  Praise the Lord for good attendance throughout the year and for all of the spiritual truths that we were able to teach to these children.



- the safe arrival of the four participants in the Focus on France program (FOF) this month, and for the various opportunities that God has already given to these four college students here to serve the Lord and experience missions in France.

- God’s help and the input of our church family in preparing a new church flyer. 
- blessing us with 17 years of marriage since we said “I do” on May 26, 2001.

Pray for
- preparations and invitations given out for four special English conversation sessions during the month of June for intermediate to advanced English speakers.  Pray that God will enable us to build bridges to reach the people of Saint Medard.
- good contacts with families on June 9 when we have our American picnic with games for the families involved in the English club this year.  Pray that hearts would be receptive to the Gospel message that has been shared and taught this year.
- the new church flyer to be read and to incite interest in spiritual things as it is shared.
- God’s help as we work with our teammates through the preparation and revision of some of our ministry policies, including new policies in order to comply with the new government regulations regarding personal information
- stability and security to return in the CAR, particularly to the town of Bambari where Christians are suffering greatly and where we used to live.
- the kids as they near the end of the school year, that Mom and kids will persevere to the end!
