...would we pray for her. As we learned of her situation, we directed her to the Lord and led her to receive His love and forgiveness. Suddenly the power of God hit her and she was wonderfully filled with Holy Spirit. The heaviness and fear that had gripped her heart was gone! When we looked up, we saw 2 others behind her also wanting prayer. All 3 of them wept big warm tears of joy as the environment shifted to the supernatural. We so love the move of Holy Spirit.

Now we are home, getting used to the 10 hour time difference, visiting children and grand children, bathing in hot water, and enjoying the food we so missed during the last 2 ½ months. We also continue to plan and dream about the completion of the children's center, our Mexico conference in July and our Peru trip in October. 

We're thankful to have arrived safely. We often find ourselves in dangerous and vulnerable situations in our travels, yet to the glory of God, we've never gotten sick, or suffered accidents. I know that your prayers have been a big part of us walking in health, safety and strength on our trips. Sometimes we may be tempted to think otherwise, but prayer makes a huge difference. It's what brought Peter out of prison, it's what saved Hezekiah's life and it's what gave a baby boy to a distraught woman named Hannah. Jesus said, "Ask and it will be given unto you!" So thank you for asking for us and for being a blessing to all those you send us to! By the way, literally dozens of brothers and sister in Africa tell us, please greet the people who help you and tell them, “thank you!” They are so grateful.

Please pray this week for the following:

1.   Money to complete the Missionary House at the children's center.

2.   Teachers and house parents to serve with us at the children's center.

3. Continued wisdom, direction and guidance for both of us in our upcoming commitments and the completion of the children's center.

May you be blessed richly and abundantly as you serve and love Jesus and the people for whom He gave His life!
