September Prayer Requests

Here is a brief note focused on our upcoming prayer requests. As you know from reading our last newsletter earlier this month, we are about to undergo a major transition. The Lecture Phase of the School of Frontier Media ends officially at 1 pm this coming Friday. At 5 p.m. that evening we all fly to Bangkok and crash for a few hours at a local hotel. Early Saturday morning at 5 a.m. Allyson, Rachel & Abigail will board a plan from Bangkok to Tokyo. They have about a 90 minute layover before flying to Detroit and then on to Boston. After 24 hours of traveling, they will arrive at Logan Airport early Saturday evening. Meanwhile, Steve will return to Chiang Mai to being outreach on the B~rmese border.

Please pray for:

• safety, energy and alertness in international travel

• timely return of luggage

• finances – we have an immediate need for $300 to cover unanticipated expenses including the hotel in Bangkok on Friday night

If you are able to help, it would be best to send these funds directly to our banking account in the States or through Paypal. Contact us for instructions.

In this upcoming transition, please pray for Allyson, Samuel, Rachel and Abigail as they:

• adjust to new circumstances again

• start new schools and seek out new friends

• survive on a reduced income

• acquire an automobile, insurance and other needs

• pay off the loan for the airfare home

• manage without Steve for three months.

Steve will also be very sad to be away from his family for so long and will require special attention in prayer. He will remain in Thailand where he will be participating in an Evangelistic Film project for the Sh*n people of B~rm*. Please pray that the team will:

• remain unified and focused even in challenging circumstances and long hours

• overcome all obstacles to successfully create an effective film appropriate for the Sh*n

• receive all of the remaining funding we need to pay for this time ($1500)

• stay safe and unhindered in travel for both staff and equipment

• continue to have God's heart for these great people.

Rachel and Steve are back from their border run to B~rm* so Steve could refresh his visa and Rachel could add another country to her passport! Thanks for your prayers.

If time permits, we will hopefully be posting some information about the Sh*n and this outreach on our blog soon, so stay tuned for more information.

Thanks, Team! We are confident that God will answer these prayers. We thank him also for those of you who will also serve as an answer to these prayers for provision. We are also grateful to know you are praying for us regularly.
