More Prayer Requests

Hey everyone,

Well it seems time to give some more prayer requests from the field. So here goes. 1.) The weather here is terrible. Thanks to a La niña year, the rainy season here in Ecuador is unreal according to word of mouth here worst in 15 years and according to CNN worst in 25 years (Read the story here). Flooding is at a new level on the coast with thousands of people displaced from their houses and of the three roads connecting Cuenca to the coast only one is open. One is covered with Landslides and large boulders. Another the bridges are either covered with water or nonexistent and on the one that's open it is one lane in places where they have cut pathways for the vehicles through the mud. The thing is is that this amount of flooding and landslides is unusually high for the end of the rainy season and we're only about 2 months into it and have 2 more to go. SO pleas be praying for this situation.

Another prayer request is a praise and a request. We're getting ready to start a cell group for adolescents here in Cuenca and that will be my main job for my last 4 months here (who can believe I'm already over halfway done!?!?!) This group will be under my supervision and I will directly lead it for the next 2 months and then hand it over and observe and help the new leader the last two months...at least that's the hope. Be praying that it all goes well and that we can begin to help the adolescents here.

Thanks for all your prayer and support. Just so You all know some of the upcoming events, tomorrow (Sunday) we're having 4 baptisms so that is a praise and the first week of March I should be going to the Jungle to help translate for a Medical Team, so be praying for my spanish!!!! Thanks to everyone!!!
