Pray for the mailman


Hey Everyone, just a quick update on the visa situation. The health deptartment would not write a letter like we asked so we are left waiting until our appointment wednesday to get our shots. We then will airmail it to headquarters in Nampa, ID and then they will send it to the Embassy to get the passport stamped and clear us to visit. It will then need to get back to us before we leave (9 days from our appointment), so please pray for fast travel and expedited time at the Embassy. We know that nothing happens outside of the complete control of a soveriegn Christ, and we are eager to see how God shows himself faithful yet once again.


"For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of th Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good for those who are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:26-28


"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understnading, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

Visa faith opportunity


Hey Everyone, just making sure this blog thing works and also to ask you to pray. We are trying to figure out visas to go to africa and we found out yesterday that we need a yellow fever shot just to get a visa. We had scheduled all our shots for next week, but that is going to be too late. there are no openings before then to get the shots done so we are going tomorrow to see if the dept of health here will issue a letter to send to get our visas stating that we are going to get the shot next week. Pray for this all to work out and for us to get our visas and also for attitudes as we get through some stressful times. Thank you all for praying.
