Dear Family & Friends,
“The Lord is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayer of the righteous. ” Proverbs 15:29
We are so thankful that we have so many of you that desire to be a part of our prayer support team. We need righteous people lifting up us personally and all the different requests that we send to you. James tell us in chapter five, “…the prayer of a righteous person has great effectiveness.” We believe this is true! Therefore we send our prayer requests and praises to you to lift up to the Father in heaven. You in turn, because of your faith in our Father, pray in faith, believing that He does hear and will act according to His perfect will. We then see God do marvelous deeds. Join with us in praising our Father for His answers to our prayers.
We praise God that Philip, Bethany, & Juliet are doing well. We are especially grateful for the healing that God has given to Bethany. She is still with us only due to His grace as God’s people in many places were praying for her. We truly believe this. She had an extremely high temperature before having the D&C. Cheryl was told by one of the surgical daycare nurses after the procedure that they had lost patients with lower temperatures before getting them to surgery. We keep praising God for this great blessing of healing. We are praising Him as well that through it all little Juliet has been very healthy. We also are praising God that Philip has been very helpful to Bethany and has been safe at work though very tired. Please continue to lift them all up as they grow together as a family.
Cheryl and John’s mom, Judy, returned safely home on Friday after being with Philip, Bethany, and Juliet for two weeks. They were very glad to have been there to help, but are also glad to be home.
Please continue to pray for the Chris & Samantha Sanford as they prepare to serve in Taiwan. They are still raising funds for their budget. They have a target date of December of this year to be in Taiwan.
Dave and Jeanay Stiles are very busy in Taiwan working with an English speaking church ,taking care of our bills, and several other things as well. They presently are considering beginning three new bible studies: one in an apartment complex, one at a university, and a third at city hall. Please pray for God’s guidance for them as they make decisions.
Thank you again for your prayers. Your prayers do make a difference.
God Bless,
John & Cheryl
