Family – Since it is very cold, pray Abi will not get sick and that she would not be too stir crazy having to be inside all day. Also, pray that she will be happy as we travel home next weekend through fourteen time-zones. Pray for Amanda as she takes care of Abi and interacts with friends in our apartment complex. Pray for Jonathan, that he will know how to lead and manage the team, in addition to caring for his family and making new friends.
New Friends – Pray for our new friends. Several of them are spending a lot of time with some of our team. Pray that the message and life of Christ would be clear to them. Ask boldly that the Father would give them the light of the knowledge of His glory in the face of Christ. Also, pray they would connect with our “long-term American friends” living in this city.
The Team – Pray for team unity, health, and excitement for what God is doing here. Pray they will not be too homesick as we finish our last week here. Also, pray they will re-enter American culture with a heart oriented around God and his kingdom. Finally, pray they will not suffer “reverse culture shock” as it may be difficult to re-connect with friends, family, church, and school.
