We are almost ready to leave to go on our trip to the Dominican Republic. As a reminder we will be leaving next Tuesday, February 10th and returning on Tuesday, February 17th. I'm guessing all of the team members and their families need prayer for help with their preparations (both physically, mentally and emotionally) for this trip. I know many of us have worked hard to prepare for the vacation bible school by working on skits, coming up with games to play, selecting worship music to sing and play, preparing the craft project and many other items to name a few. We are also working to pack our bags and decide what gifts we want to bring to the people we visit. I know for myself (Brooke), I'm planning to bring donated clothing from friends to give away.
For more specific prayers you can pray for the following people in the following ways:
Mike - That God would show him how to communicate with his children and reach out to them on an individual level, putting his own reservations aside. Also that his wife Megan and his marriage would be strengthened through this mission trip.
Lily - Her prayer request is one of health. She has had a nasal/sinus congestion for over a week, which developed into a very bad cough. It's been over a week now and has kept her up during the night. She doesn't ever recall having such a severe long lasting cough. Her husband, Kevin and the kids are all not 100% and she is feeling anxious about leaving them. Please pray that her family gets better and for God's protection over Megan her daughter, who seems to be healthy so far.
Megan - She would like prayer for this next week as we are preparing to leave. Prayer that God continues to work on all our hearts before, during, and after the trip. She hopes that our relationship with him grows!
Matt - Please pray that we will not come back the same.
Brooke - I would like prayer for our safety with all aspects of the trip and that all logistics would go smoothly. Also, that all the team members would have their hearts prepared to serve and work together on this great opportunity to help others.
