Prayer Requests

Many of you are asking what the big prayer items are so that you can share these with your churches this upcoming Sunday.

- That God would work in the hearts of the people and that many would come to know Him through this tragedy.
- wisdom to know how to start helping the many who are hurt, without food and water or without shelter.
- safety as we receive supplies and start to distribute them. There is always a concern that we could be the target of mobbing if they know we have lots of supplies.
- That God would miraculously supply the needed diesel, water and food that we need. Our hospital needs the generator to keep it running, so diesel is a huge need.
- that the medical team scheduled to arrive on Tuesday would be able to arrive without any troubles with all their supplies
- For strength for the hospital staff, missionaries, and all those involved in the relief efforts to continue day by day.

Thank you so much for your prayers. We are continually seeing God at work and we know that He is answering prayers.

Thanks for giving us these prayer requests, Deborah. I am going to pass these on to other people so we know specifically how to pray.
I read your comment to Morgan that the kids are doing better. That's good. I've been thinking and praying for them. Tell them Aunt Carrie loves them and is praying for them :)
