Mustard
Seed Jersey Prayer Update March 17th 2016
I
(Rose) have just come back from holiday in UK and during that time I visited
KEN & FLORENCE now in Co Durham. (They used to be in Romania heading up
Vineyard). They are very confident that after almost 20 years in Romania, it is
the right time to come back to this country. The churches they planted, the
social assistance outreach they began, also the kindergarten are all continuing
under Romanian leadership, people who they have discipled
and trained.
For me it was great to see them again and
learn how God has provided for them now they are back in UK.
Ken was in hospital, while I was in Co
Durham, having suffered a comparatively minor heart attack. He is now home and
doing well. Please do pray for KEN, especially as he is suffering near constant
pain as one knee needs replacing, and it is likely after the heart attack that surgery
may be somewhat delayed.
ROMANIA:
We have had no specific prayer requests for this prayer update from any of the
Romanian trusts, so these pointers for thanks-giving and prayer are more
general:
MUSTARD SEED ROMANIA – Give thanks for 2 groups of
volunteers from USA have been / still are working there on various projects in Cefa, Romania. Pray for safety and blessing.
KATHY LANGSTON – Pray for Kathy’s health
and for the women workers Kathy employs to care for abandoned disabled young
children now resident in state run homes. Pray their influence will continue to
be good and that all the children will benefit.
AGAPE & EL SADIA – pray for both
trusts for success for the young people on their programmes, that they will all
benefit and ultimately become independent.
F.I.’s work and beneficiaries,
especially remembering Nelu and Cristina, pray for them
for wisdom and good health.
JERSEY:
Give thanks for all our VOLUNTEERS who
pack, collect, load, etc also our book keeper and pray God’s blessing on her.
TRAILER PLANS: please continue to pray
that our plans to convert our spring trailer (after it has transported 10+
tonnes of relief aid to Romania in early May) into accommodation will work out
successfully.
TINATHON: please continue to pray that
the plans for Tinathon on May 20th will
all come together. (This is a joint venture with Shelter Trust)
COMFORT: please pray for those connected
to us who have been bereaved and are grieving.
CHANGED LIVES project in Cihei, Romania: please continue to pray for the funds to
come in for this project to offer 2 more units of accommodation, shared showers
/ washing facilities for the site and aid storage. Give thanks for money donated so far
WISDOM: please pray for me (Rose) and
the Trustees that we will make wise decisions and make good use of the
resources entrusted to us.
Meanwhile,
please continue to bless us with your prayers.
Yours
in Christ
Rose
