Luke 10:2 (NKJV)\u00a0 Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"us<\/a> We are thankful<\/strong> <\/span>that God has once again allowed us to be back in the Philippines working on Old Testament translation for the Higaunon.<\/p>\n

We arrived safely in the village March 4th. Our house hadn’t been opened up in a while but for the most part, it wasn’t that bad. It took a couple of days to get it cleaned and a few days later we felt settled in. We are so thankful<\/span> <\/strong>for two village friends who helped clean the house.<\/p>\n

A week after our arrival the plane brought in a technician to set up the satellite internet connection. We are very thankful<\/strong><\/span> to be online again. The wonders of modern technology; that we can communicate instantly from the middle of nowhere is amazing!<\/p>\n

PLEASE PRAY!!<\/span><\/h2>\n

A week ago after the Sunday morning service the church here sent out a survey team. They are visiting villages, looking for places that are open to hearing the gospel and being taught the Word of God.<\/p>\n

The team plans to be gone for three weeks. Please pray<\/strong><\/span> for them as they’re hiking the whole way! Pray<\/strong> <\/span>for good conversations and most of all that the Holy Spirit will guide and protect them.<\/p>\n

Thank you<\/strong><\/span> for praying for the initial check of Isaiah. We’re making good progress. But one never knows what a day may hold. On our second day of checking, the conversation was going something like this:<\/p>\n

Lance: “So you see that Israel was going through these things because of their own choices…”\u00a0 Then Laura called: “Lance! The toilet isn’t working!” So, since we can’t call a plumber, my translation assistant and I took time out to fix the problem. Even though it involved opening the septic tank, it was an easy fix and we were soon back to work (after a shower of course.)<\/p>\n

Please pray<\/strong><\/span> for clear understanding and that our translation assistant will not be hesitant to make any needed changes.<\/p>\n

Thank you<\/strong> <\/span>for your part in this ministry. We praise God for you who pray and give.<\/p>\n

Secure in His love,<\/p>\n

Lance & Laura<\/p>\n
