E-pray Extra: January 2011
Hello everyone!
I thought I would send an extra little note to you today for a few reasons.
First, John has arrived back in India and I wanted to ask you to pray, once again, as he goes to the customs office to try to move the process along in getting the shipment released. He has a new guy helping him that seems to know more and hopefully will be very helpful! They have an inspection scheduled for this Saturday, so please pray for everything to go better than we could even hope for! Now that it has been sitting there again for some months John will have to talk with the storage facility again about the charges. He is going to ask for them to waive the charge or at least agree to the amount they had agreed upon before. Please pray for this, too. Please also pray for John to know clearly what the Lord is leading about all of this. We know He has His perfect plan! Thank you for your continued prayer!
Second, on a very exciting note… We are really excited about the team of young adults joining us in India for 2 weeks this summer for a ministry trip, which among other things, will impact more than 1000 students, ranging from elementary through college age, almost ALL who have NEVER HEARD ABOUT JESUS before! This is going to be so great!!
What I wanted to write to you about is an opportunity that maybe you could help us with. We are having a fundraiser dinner to help with the team’s cost of the trip and there will be a silent and live auction.
Wherever you live you could be praying for us, *for our team to grow as we put our time and effort in this together and work as a team, *for provision of many great auction items, *for many people to buy tickets and come, *for the auction items to sell at a high value, and *for everything to go smoothly down to the last detail, of which there are many! Also, please pray that *everyone will be encouraged to be served by the team and to learn of what the Lord has been doing in India, and what exciting things are yet to come this summer!
If you live near us you could help us by coming to the dinner, or, we would be so grateful for anything you could contribute, or both!
The Red Rose Dinner is Saturday, February 12th at Faith Community Church, 6 – 9pm.
You will be served by members of the young adult team as you enjoy a fine dinner in an elegant setting. Our family (not including John, who will still be in India) will give a short presentation of what the team will be doing to help serve the people of India through the ministries of SERVE India. Tickets are $25 for a person. Please join us for a fun night out and to help the team be on their way to India. You can see more details by going to this site http://bit.ly/enLNbU
Please let me know if you would like tickets or if you have anything you would like to give or service you could offer, or if you have any questions please send an email or call me at 715-220-9369 or Maren Coulter mcoulter3@hotmail.com at 715-377-7211.
THANK YOU!!
His joy, Terri Nanda
