Dear ones,
This week finds us battling the flu as a family, preparing for the DTS (which starts next week) and Moses teaching a seminar this weekend. Never a dull moment! :-)
Please pray for good health for our family, Katelyn has been sick with fever, coughing, stomach symptoms for a week and is doing better but quite weak and unable to eat much or keep it down. Josh, Jo, Zachary and Marianna also are coughing a lot and just pretty miserable.
Pray for the DTS staff and students as they prepare for what God has for them together in the next five months. Some have to travel internationaly and deal with visa issues, tickets etc. Lots of the Chadians are financialy challenged & need a faith breakthrough. Pray for smooth beginning, good time of meshing together as a group, and for provision for all their needs. Mirom Collette will be leading the school.
Moses is teaching a seminar in a local church on Spiritual Warfare January 28,29,30. Pray for effective teaching time and for the Lord to open hearts and minds to his truth.
Please pray also for our coworkers. Margaret, a friend and co-worker found out yesterday that her Dad's lung cancer has begun to spread and his dr. has said this is "the beginning of the end." (He has exhausted all the treatment options.) Please pray for Margaret as she plans to travel home to spend time with her parents, and for her family for special peace and the Lord's presence. Also this morning Mirom, our school leader has had to travel to Koumra because her daughter is hospitalized there.
A few weeks ago there was an gov't assault on rebel positions less than 100 km from here. The town has quieted down in the last week and we are happy NOT to hear the military aircraft all day long....! It is "that time of year" when in the past there has been considerable conflict and we pray that this year will be the exception and that we will have peace. (During dry season of Dec-April, it is much easier to move around the country, and that is usually when there is the most fighting.)
Until all have heard,
Moses, Jo and family
