E-Pray – January 2023
Hello dear friends!
I am looking out the window as I type this note, feeling so grateful for our friend and neighbor who is snowblowing our driveway (for the 3rd time this week!). It is such a blessing to have such care shown, and it just reminded me again, of how very grateful we are for all of you, who have continued to partner with us over so many years! You have given of your time, energy, and resources, and you have prayed. As we so often say, we can only do this work the Lord has given with partners like you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I talked with John earlier this week and he said that in our area Covid cases are on the rise again and the authorities are deciding if they will shut down gatherings and limit travel. This is troubling news! We prayed and decided that we should wait on our plan of training for our Workers. This also means that I am waiting to buy my ticket to travel there until we see how it will all play out.
Thank you so much for your continued prayer!
Please pray for John’s time in India:
