Join us this week in prayer:

(1) Praise God for His provision! - Yesterday we held a DR Trip Fundraiser cookout after church. We set up the grill and cooked 200 burgers with all the fixin's. People could not resist the smell of the grill. It was a beautiful day here in Arkansas with sunshine, breeze, and temperature in the 70's. We will use this money to fund our children programming supplies, blessing gifts, and second bag luggage fees.

(2) Ask God to keep us focused on being used to transform lives for Him during this journey before the trip and while on the trip. We feel clouded by all the busy details of life-finishing exams this week for Phillip, sending Brian off for the summer tomorrow to Student Mobilization Kaleo, working on the preparation details of all the church's mission trips, and working more to raise funds for the trip.

(3) Rescued children in the residential homes: fraternal twins Rhadania(girl) and Rhadalfi(boy). These children were among the first to enter the ARC. They have both blossomed into sweet loving children. Last year Rhadania showed off by singing the english verses of José Feliciano's song 'Feliz Navidad'-never mind it was in July singing a Christmas song.
