I heard a great prayer idea from a Wednesday Weekly Wintercessor, and I hope you'll join us! It's called "one one one." Choose one lost person you know and pray for him/her for one minute at one o'clock every day. You can even set an alarm or reminder to trigger your memory.

BTW, if you're looking to hear a few great sermons, be sure to visit the site.

I saw this quote in a recent "Winning Without Intimidation" newsletter and, naturally, thought of the International Prayer Center of Jerusalem:

"False ideals cannot be shattered by criticism. Right ideals
must take up the battle against them."
-- Franz Werfel,
"Between Heaven and Earth"

A friend sent this great link, and I hope you find it encouraging.

+ A volunteer who had forgotten more about computers than I may ever know was supposed to be here last week to help with the Prayer Center network, so you asked God to bring him safely that His work may be accomplished... hmm, I thought he'd be here by now; hopefully, he hasn't forgotten :*-)

+ Shirin and Jasmine were at the Girls Home last week and we asked you to pray for God's Spirit to move those who need to know Him... Shirin writes, "Thank you for praying. Jasmine and I along with some co-workers were able to help paint the Girls Home as well as share some about our faith in the Creator."

+ Jasmine celebrates her special day every 30th, and last week is no exception. As Jasmine gets older and begins to put thoughts together, you asked God to speak to her heart about walking with Him fully... she has learned the books of the Bible in order, the verses of "the Roman Road," and has recently added John 3:14-19 to her memory. She is overcoming her apprehension about water, so baptism may not be an issue anymore; however, continue praying for her salvation.

+ You joined Jasmine in praying that she would have a good first week of Fun Camp... oh, how I wish you could have seen the excitement on her face after the first day! It didn't matter to here that over 90% of the camp day was in Hebrew. Jasmine has enough Arabic to figure it out (or so she said). Also, Jasmine thanks you for praying for her. She is having a great time in camp and overcoming some fears about swimming in the pool. Jasmine comes home each day from camp with a few more scrapes and bug bites but with a big smile on her face. She has many friends that speak different languages and is good friends with her Arabic speaking camp leader. We are so grateful that Jasmine is having such a wonderful time and that language and culture are not barriers to her.

<>< As I run through various "loose end" errands this week, ask God to arrange one of those "Divine Encounters" where someone gets to meet Him for the first time!

<>< Our refrigerator went goofy on us last week so join us in asking God to give Shirin (along with Scott and Jasmine) peace of mind in our thankfulness.

<>< Jasmine asks to have more good days at camp.

><Pray for a church planting movement among the Lingayat.>
