Update

In three days, I will be on my way to Russia!  In four days, Matthew and Anita will be on their way to Russia!  And in eleven days, Angela will be on her way to Russia!   We are all delighted to be a part of what God is doing there.  We realize that He is planting and germinating seeds of faith, healing parched souls and shining the Son’s light in darkened hearts.  We humbly embrace His plan and purpose.  Pray that we will speak His word with great boldness and confidence, without wavering and trusting Him to do what He does best - the miraculous!

All of us have had many challenges in the past couple of weeks but the Lord has faithfully brought us through each one.  We thank Him that He is our strength and help in times of trouble. And we thank you for your faithfulness to pray for us.  We need for you to continue to intercede for us as we prepare to go, while we are there and when we return.  You will find our prayer requests on the calendar below.

I have created a blog to post updates and prayer needs while in Russia.  If you want to receive the posts, please clink on this link Russia 2013 and enter your email in the "Follow by Email" tab located on the right hand side of the blog.  Whenever a new post or pictures are added, you will be notified by email.  You can also follow the blog by joining the site.  This tab is located directly under the "Follow by Email" tab.

I thank all of you who contributed to make this trip possible.  Anita, Matthew, Angela and I appreciate your trust and support. We go only in His strength and grace. We thank you for your partnership, and pray the Lord richly blesses you!
