February 22, 2015 Prayer Note

Dear Family & Friends,

“A whole generation will serve him; they will tell the next generation about the sovereign Lord.  They will come and tell about his saving deeds; they will tell a future generation what he has accomplished.”  Psalm 22:30-31

It is necessary for each of us as Christ’s disciples to recognize our responsibility to tell the next generation about the saving grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  We must share our faith with them in order that they too may choose to have a relationship with Jesus.  If we don’t share what our God has done for us, then who will?  Pray with us that each day we take seriously our responsibility to share the gospel.

Nelfa continues to improve.  She is following simple commands and has been able to sit up while eating.  This gives hope that her brain is slowly healing.  The hospital is beginning the process to allow her to go home.  This will be difficult for the family as they will be responsible for all of her care.  There home is 3-4 hour car ride from the hospital.  They are still in need of help with paying the hospital bill.  You can follow Nelfa’s situation at https://www.facebook.com/groups/1564643630441688/

The discipleship groups will start back up this week after being off for Chinese New Year.  Please pray that everyone will be excited to share how God has been faithful during the past couple of weeks.  Pray as well that they will have a deeper desire to know God and share His love with their family and friends.

We ask that you pray for our family as we make preparations to move to Taichung.  We hope to find an apartment this spring so that we can get it ready for us to move into right after school gets out.  We also ask that you pray for us to have wisdom as we prepare our family, churches, friends, and others for our move.

During the Chinese New Year break the Xi En nannies were all on vacation.  Cheryl arranged for volunteers to fill in for the nannies.  We are very grateful for everyone that was willing to take time out of their break to care for the babies.  Some people even came from Taichung to help out.  Praise the Lord for these servants.

Thank you for your prayers.

God Bless,

John & Cheryl
