Nan Update: prayer prayer prayer prayer

Dear Friends,

I know this email comes a little early, our schedule has changed some so you should be getting emails from me every other week now. So how are you ? How are things in America? :)

Life is good here. The move to Kollo went very well and Kanesa and Brandy are amazing! So its been a wonderful time getting to know them and watch them minister to the people they so dearly love.

Language school has been tough but good. We’ve been blessed with an excellent, excellent teacher , that is so much fun and so patient with us. But trying to wrap your mind around a completely different language is complex and frustrating at times. He has been giving us incredible amounts of wisdom and favor with the people though so its been a good learning experience.

Penny and I had the opportunity to see our future home this week and it looks great. We are really excited and getting anxious to be there but we also realize how important this time of preparation is. The people  there are very very open to the Word, please continue to pray for the soil of their hearts to be ready, without stones and without thorns (mark 4). Thats a Scripture that has really been on my heart lately. Also Kanesa made a statement the other day about the people here that really burdened my heart.”we need to pray that the Lord will remove the dust from their eyes” – Even when the truth is laid out clearly before them they cannot see. So please pray that with us.

Here recently Brandy and Kanesa have seen alot of progress, the people have been exceedingly more open, they have seen alot of people that never wanted hear before come and ask them to tell them more and more of the Word. We were in a village the other night and they we asked to tell a story 3 times. The harvest is ready. Be fervent in Prayer.

So specific prayer requess:

  • Our future home village- that the people will be open and ready for the Word, and that even the Cheif will be ready for the Word and that Believers will come by the household.
  • For language- continued patience and understanding and comprehension.
  • For Brandy and Kanesa – for health and wisdom as they start a monthly discipleship program with the believers from the surrounding villages and as they minister to their own home village.
  • For continued unity within our team and specificly with  Penny and myself.
  • Also for spiritual discerment and wisdom as we face situations and circumstances we are unfamiliar with, that we would be strong in the Spirit and cling to truth.

You have no idea how precious your prayers are and how much we pray that we will be continually on your mind because of our incessant need of Gods strength and wisdom.

May you be Blessed.

Nan
