A Passage to India

I leave in the morning for India. Please be in prayer for me as I go. Right now we have a lot of fog and the airport was closed this morning. Please pray that the weather is good and my flights all go smoothly tomorrow. Pray also for my time in India. There is so much that I need to learn in this trip.

Blessings!

Pastor's Conference

My trip to Bucharest went great and I obtained the visa to India, so I'm set to go next week. Thanks for your prayers.

This week Andy is in another part of Moldova for the annual Pastor's Conference. He'll be speaking on Wednesday afternoon. Please pray for him as he speaks. Pray also for all the pastors so they would be encouraged and pray for the different speakers that they'd be used of God to touch them.

We also have a team here from West Monroe, Louisiana. The pastor is also sharing in the conference and the team is ministering in different areas of ministry (children, rehab, churches) during the days. Please keep this team in your prayers also.

And pray for the girls and I as we are home without Andy. We need a touch of healing. Colds have invaded our heads. Pray also for safety for us in these days.

Have a blessed day.

visa granted

This is just a quick post to say that my visa for India has been granted. PTL. I will travel by overnight train on Tuesday (with a friend--safety in numbers) to Bucharest, Romania to pick it up from the Indian embassy on Wednesday and come back on the Wednesday overnight train. Please pray for safety in travel and no kinks in the process when I get there. Thanks!

Rising costs

Today I come to you asking you to pray for the house we have looked at and want to buy for our Home of Hope. We are having a typical crazy Molodvan situation right now with it.

Two weeks ago we looked at the house and they asked one price. Then yesterday they told the Moldovan that is looking at it for us (we stay out of it) that it is worth more and now they are advertising it for 15,000 Euro more. The add for it with the raised price goes in the paper tomorrow.

It could make us laugh that only in Moldova will they see a bit of interest and then be convinced the price is too low and ask more!

Would you specifically pray with us that they get ABSOLUTELY NO interest on this house in the next week or two. Pray that no one calls and that no one wants to see the house. This is a wonderful house and a wonderful location and we believe it is what God has for us, but we don't want to pay 15,000 Euro (about $20,000) more than they first asked since it will already take enough to finish the house.
