June 24, 2012 Prayer Note

Dear Family & Friends,

 

“What we have heard and learned – that which our ancestors have told us – we will not hide from their descendants.  We will tell the next generation about the Lord’s praiseworthy acts, about his strength and the amazing things he has done.  He established a rule in Jacob; he set up a law in Israel.  He commanded our ancestors to make his deeds known to their descendants, so that the next generation, children yet to be born, might know about them.  They will grow up and tell their descendants about them.  Then they will place their confidence in God.  They will not forget the works of God, and they will obey his commands.”  Psalm 78:3-7

 

What a great reminder of our responsibility to teach those coming behind us.  These could be our physical or spiritual children.  We have a responsibility given to us by God to teach who He is and what He is like.  Without our faithfulness in teaching our children about God why would they worship Him?  Join us in praying that we hear Holy Spirit’s constant reminder for us to teach the next generation.

 

Thank you for praying for John and all those involved in the Kairos course last week.  Even with the typhoon they were able to complete the course.  We are hoping a group from our churches will attend the next session in August.

 

During this past week we had a house guest from the House of Hope.  His Hands has been helping a 15 year old un-wed mom.  She stayed with us during the typhoon.  The very day Cheryl took her back to the House of Hope she went into labor.  That night just before mid-night she gave birth to a baby boy.  There were four ladies, including Cheryl, connected with His Hands there supporting her.  We hope their testimony of love will speak to the hearts of her family.  This young mom is already coming to faith in Jesus.

 

Dave Stiles is going to Vietnam July 5-18 with a Christian friend he met in Kaohsiung.  Dave wants to go and encourage the Christians there as well as to see how God might want the church he works with to partner with these Christians in Vietnam.

 

Phyllis Watkins had to have surgery to remove infection in her brain is was the infection started from a piece of bone.  Please pray for Phyllis as she continues her recovery.

 

This week we will be going to Taichung on Tuesday and returning on Wednesday.  We will be connecting with others that are involved with Sports and English Camp.  John will be helping to lead the biking activity.  He hopes to meet with another man that will also be leading in this area to plan out the routes that they will use that week.  Please pray as well that all these campers will be affected by the word of God during the week.

 

Thank you for praying for Moriah and our family.  She is all better.  No one else has contracted the flu.

 

Thank you for praying.

 

God Bless,

 

John & Cheryl
