points for prayer.

  • strength and endurance especially during the VERY hot season
  • Miguel's shoulder - he is going on two months with a shoulder/bicep injury that is making it very difficult for him to do anything at all using it. The Dr.'s advice has been that he needs to do NOTHING with it...so far, that's been a challenge too difficult for Miguel to consistently accomplish.
  • school construction project- safety in work and efficiency to its completion
  • daily spiritual growth and maturity
  • Miguel's US residency paperwork
  • Jennie's Dominican residency paperwork
  • Vlady-he is the son of Miguel's cousin, Susa. Susa has basically abandoned her 4 children and has taken up drinking a lot. Vlady's dad is a drug dealer and is currently on the run from the police. Vlady gets shuffled back and forth from family member to family member and he is quite aware that nobody really wants to take care of him. Miguel and I are trying to step in and take him under our wing...but need prayer for wisdom in knowing what our roles need to be in his life. He is six.
  • Our general finances in living and working here in the DR
  • Work relationships and opportunities to share God's love with whomever we encounter
