Well, almost... our real Home is in Heaven, and we're just passing through; however, our apartment in Jerusalem is 'home' for the next couple of years. We left the Washington, DC area at about 5pm Sunday; flew ~7 hours to Amsterdam; tried sleeping in a day room before boarding for a four-hour flight to Tel Aviv. Shirin and I believe that this was by far the easiest entry we've had and attribute it to how you as God's people prayed us through! Thank you : -) KLM's inflight magazine had a travel article that mentioned France as the world's current favorite vacation spot; however, China will claim that spot within ten years. Imagine that... the world's largest mission field being flooded with God's people on vacation! Now Who could have planned that?! Since we always need "one more" person to pray for us, please feel free to recommend the 'Wednesday Weekly' to other like-minded intercessors in your circle of friends. Invite them either to send an e-mail or to subscribe at our website. I'm glad to have you with us. Have an awesome week! May God find us listening more attentively to His voice this week as I am, Yours because His, * Be sure to sign up for the Wednesday Weekly. + <L A S T W E E K>< ++ Once again, we called on you to ask God to give us a calm spirit as we made final touches on packing and sorting items to be put back in storage... the stress usually associated with all that was nowhere to be found, and we thank you! + You asked God to give us another safe departure, comfortable flight, and uneventful arrival as all of our luggage showed up when we did... as we mentioned earlier, wow, did this happen even better than we'd asked! + You prayed for a reasonable adjustment to life back in Jerusalem... hmm, now this is getting tough; however, we have sensed that this adjustment is easier than last time. <T H I S W E E K><<>< Continue praying that our adjustment to life in Jerusalem will go smoothly. <>< Pray that we would be aware of opportunities to share the Good News with our neighbors. <>< Join us in giving thanks for each person who made the past ten weeks so memorable! >< Pray for the Baltic people. > CALENDAR UPDATES<If you're not receiving our bimonthly snail-mail newsletter, let us know so we can send it to you!>< 10-14, As we wrap up our final speaking opportunities, pray with us that the messages we’ve left behind will stir the hearts of the churches to see the remaining unreached people groups have advocacy before the Throne in Glory.* Oh, how we pray that this will happen! 15-17, Pray for another safe, uneventful departure from the US. Pray, too, that all of our luggage will arrive at the same time and place we do and that returning to Jerusalem (if possible) will be painless, especially by way of a re-entry airport visa.* Your intercession was heard as all of these things came to pass! Thank you! |
