Prayer Requests

Hey all, just want to ask for some prayers for events that are coming up in the next few days. First of all, Calvin is sick. He woke up this morning with a fever and has been fussy and not able to hold much of anything down. Please pray for a quick recovery for him. We are thankful to God that this is the first time he's been this sick...how good God is to keep him from sickness.

Another prayer request is for Saturday night our time we have been invited by Nay's family to go to a New Year's party. Please pray for us to find the house without any problems (we've never been there before). Please also pray for us to have oppurtunity to talk about Christmas and WHO it is we celebrate not just at Christmas but all year long.

As for other Christmas goings on, we will be having a team Christmas Eve service Sunday evening. WE will be reflecting on the Isaiah 9 passage of Christ being our wonderful couselor, mighty God, everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. We will also be having seasons of singing and prayer. Pray that it would be a good time of reflection and fellowship for our team. On Monday, we will be having Jan and Jose (our Dutch friends) over for lunch. We are really looking forward to spending that time with them. And then later in the day we will probably be heading over to the Mills' home to play games and eat pizza with the rest of the team.

Paul has been invited to go to Chiang Mai (the north of Thailand) on the 28th thru Jan 2 or 3 with one of the university students he is getting to know. He is from up north and will be spending the New Year with his family there. The boys and I have also been invited but we are not sure if we were just invited because they wanted to be polite OR if they really want us to come along too. Please pray for wisdom for us to know what to do. We would all really like to go but I don't want to go if my going is actually going to offend. We need God's wisdom.

Thanks so much for your faithful prayers for our family and team. Have a great Christmas but make sure you take the time to really enjoy Christ this Christmas.
