October 3, 2010 Prayer Note

Dear Family & Friends,

“Then the Lord God took dust from the ground and made a man.  He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nose, and the man became a living thing.”  Genesis 2:7

We are beginning a new sermon series at both Eternal Light and Good News churches.  We are doing an overview of God’s story of Love from Creation to the Church.  Today we look at Genesis 2.  This chapter tells the beginning of mankind through a poetic style.  It is more concerned with what happened and why rather than when the events happened sequentially.  God specially created mankind and gave him the gift of life, the gift of love.  Please pray for us to be able to communicate God’s Love to the people of Taiwan.

This past week Eugene took a cell group out to prayer walk.  They had the opportunity to witness to a couple in the park.  This opportunity allowed the group to see the weakness in their own faith, thus providing an opportunity for growth.  Please pray for the faith of the Christians to grow as they reach out into their community.

Many of you know that Moriah has lots and lots of energy, and has a hard time focusing at times.  Her situation causes many challenges for everyone.  We took her to see a different doctor this week.  She has already done more to understand Moriah’s situation than the previous doctor.  She has provided us with a strategy for helping her accomplish homework and to function well at school.  Please pray for Moriah and us as we strive to work together to help her face life’s challenges.

This week we are going to be attending a retreat that our field co-ordinator, Dana McCain initiated for all Team Expansion missionaries here in Asia.  It is here on island, so we don’t have far to travel.  Global Rest is the name of the organization that actually conducts the retreat.  Please pray for everyone as they travel to the retreat.  Pray as well that God’s purposes will be achieved through this retreat.

Thank you for your prayers.

God Bless,

John & Cheryl
