MUSTARD
SEED JERSEY PRAYER UPDATE 6th SEPTEMBER 2015
AID
CONSIGNMENT EN ROUTE
Our autumn aid consignment is now on
its way to Romania – at time of writing it is in St Malo,
waiting for the transfer of goods from our trailer to that of the Romanian haulier
tomorrow morning (Monday Sept 7th). If you receive this in time to
remember it in prayer, please do pray all goes smoothly, especially with the
Customs paperwork. It seems that this
will be the way we will send most future aid consignments, so to resolve
potential problems with paperwork is very important.
We give thanks for the availability
and willingness of volunteers Peter and Glen to assist with the aid transfer in
St Malo. We give thanks for Calin
who assisted us greatly in these arrangements and ask God’s blessing on him and
his family. We expect the aid should
arrive in Romania on Wednesday for unloading on Thursday.

Project
news and prayers:
We thank God for recent donations to
our CHANGED LIVES project that mean we have been able to send the money needed
for the permissions and foundations. We expect the foundations to have been dug
and laid before the start of winter. The project will offer 2 or 3 units of
accommodation to the homeless, an area for aid storage, as well as shared
washing and showering facilities for all those living in porter-cabins or
trailer on the site
LOCAL NEEDS IN
JERSEY:
·
Pray
for healing for Jenny, Rachael, Marta, Bernie and others.
·
Pray
for wisdom and inspiration as we seek to raise funds for the Changed Lives
project (2-3 more homes for the homeless & shared shower facilities).
·
Pray
for arrangements to go well for our Christmas shoebox appeal that those boxes
will all bring joy to the recipients.
Please do keep us in your prayers –
we believe that PRAYER CHANGES THINGS and at times we are thrilled to see the
evidence.
