wonderful things you sent to us .....”

PRAYER
REQUESTS & NEEDS IN JERSEY:
Ø Please
continue to pray for us for WISDOM and guidance concerning the best way to get
aid to Romania. We have some volunteer drivers who are keen to continue to
drive for us, but at present we are unable to obtain insurance for them so this
way now seems to be impossible. We really praise God that we have a good
contact and the option of using a Romanian haulier, which has been successful
in the past for us.
Ø Continue
to pray for specific guidance as to the way ahead regarding the need for a
permanent building on the site where we have homed families in container homes.
Ø Continue
to pray for healing for some of our local volunteers and supporters (past and
present) especially Rachael, Bernie, Phil, Jenny, and others
St James tells us that the prayers of a righteous
man (or woman) are very effective. So please keep praying.
