Dear Family & Friends,
“Be devoted to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving. At the same time pray for us too, that God may open a door for the message so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may make it known as I should.” Col. 4:2-4 NET
This is the plea of every person in ministry (not the chains, but the prayers). We all recognize our need for prayer to help us accomplish the task of taking the Gospel to those around us. We need to speak boldly and clearly the message of the Gospel. We don’t want ourselves to get in the way of the message. We want to our actions to match our message, therefore confirming it in the minds of those we approach with the Gospel. Please pray for us daily, and ask someone to join with you.
We ask that you be in prayer for the four different mission trips that students from Morrison Academy are participating in this week. Andrew left early today with his team to go to Boracay. They will return next Monday. Thank for the support that he has received both in prayer, words of encouragement, and money. All that he needed has been received. Praise the Lord!
We ask that you pray for Sharon who attends the Ladies Bible study. We praise the Lord that she was baptized on March 1st. She has a difficult road often having to raise her son without the help of her husband. Her dad has recently been diagnosed with ocular cellulitis. This is in addition to the tongue cancer for which he has been treated. Pray that Sharon can be a witness to all of her family.
We ask that you pray for summer plans as we prepare for visiting with you, our family & friends. We are also preparing for Andrew to attend college in the US. He has been accepted to Liberty University. We are still working to find some more scholarship money and completing paperwork as the school asks for it.
Thank you for your prayers.
God Bless,
John & Cheryl
