Things to pray for . . . . this week


Please pray for our weekly Sports ministries and also the girls who come and make bracelets or crafts on the sidelines and talk about the Bible.



Please continue to pray for English club. This week’s theme was 4th of July – Independence Day in America. We had games, dramas, music, Tuesdae gave her testimony, and we talked about Spiritual freedom. If the SON sets you free . . . . . . Please pray for next week as Maya, one of the Ukrainian girls who was saved about 5 years ago will be sharing her testimony of how she was drawn to Christ through the English club.

Please pray for my meetings with Alton. His story is so cool to me, a true divine appointment. The week of our children’s camp in Chutiva (about a month ago) Kayla, Andrew and I were doing the sports station. A young man walked up in the field and said he heard some Americans were in the village and he wanted to practice his English. He had never spoken with native speakers before. We talked with him for about 30 minutes or so but didn’t really have too much time because we had like 86 kids that day and we were very busy. Chutiva is about an hour or so outside Poltava and has about 6,000 people. Anyway I kind of forgot about it all then one of the teachers from the private school we help with came and ask me to meet with one young man to help him practice his English. (Now remember, Poltava has about 400,000 people in the city.) So I said sure we will meet with your student and try to help him. Now guess who it was, the same young man from Chutiva. He comes to Poltava 3 times a week by bus to take some classes and his teacher just happened (the LORD had it fixed) to be the one we also work with. We met this teacher 5 years ago when he was a student in the university himself. You see God’s ways are higher than our ways and His plans are working together even when we can’t see HIS hand. Please pray for my meetings with Anton. We meet for one hour or so every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Pray especially as we are going over the meaning of Grace and the four Spiritual laws.
I’m out of time but please also pray for:
• The Children’s Hospital - Mondays
• English club – Tuesdays
• Sports - Wednesdays
• Chutiva village ministry - Thursdays
• Girl’s movie night – Friday nights
• Also for us as we meet people during the day to practice English. All our
classes are over now but we have lots of connections built and we are
trying to meet with people during the day to build relationships and share
more about Christ with them.
• Pray for me as I will be preaching at Salvation Church tomorrow, LORD
willing.
