Each of the steps on our new list can be used as prayer points:<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-red-color\">Get ready for June <strong>literacy workshop in Peru<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>our preparations with the languages with which we will be working. We don\u2019t have to learn to speak the language to help with literacy, but we become very familiar with the grammar, spelling of words and syllables that occur in the language.<\/li><li>every language is so interesting and unique. One of them for this Peru workshop has 9 consonants \u2013 the first one alphabetically being the letter j! So that means no letters c d f g or h. But they make up for it with the vowels: a \u00e2 e \u00ea i \u00ee o \u00f4 \u00f6 \u00f8 u.<\/li><li>our preparations as we review notes to be ready for the 4 days of literacy consultant training. The consultant training is one of the most intense things we do.<\/li><li>confirm that all notes for the consultant training have been translated into Spanish and are ready for the workshop.<\/li><li>that God will use this workshop in training more literacy consultants who can help other teams and that the literacy materials we produce will help people learn to read God\u2019s Word being translated into their languages!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-red-color\">&nbsp;<strong>Preparations for other trips this year to Bolivia\nand W. Africa<\/strong>&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>wisdom with the details: correspondence with those we will be training and teams we with whom we\u2019ll be working, translation of resources, flights and tickets. Lots of people are involved and we want to be hearing God\u2019s voice each step of the way.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-red-color\">&nbsp;<strong>Literacy teaching videos<\/strong>&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>our leadership has asked us to make training videos to help those teaching the literacy course in the missionary candidate training centers around the world<\/li><li>details for the videoing<\/li><li>clear communication of these important truths<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\nThanks for praying for us, not just that we can check off boxes on our\nto-do list! That is rewarding to do, but how we want to be hearing our Lord\u2019s\nvoice, have His wisdom and joy, and be pointing everyone we meet along the way\nto Him!\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Don\u2019t you just love being able to cross off big tasks from your to-do list?
