May Update

Thanks much for your prayers over the past couple months! So many things to update you on.

Do you speak Norwegian? =)
usa.ntm.org website launched at the end of April. The next few weeks were busy fixing some of the bugs. norge.ntm.org – the site for Norway and italia.ntm.org site launched last week! We’re so excited. My next biggest prayer is for God to bring a team together, so I can get back to video editing. He is already in the process of answering this prayer, so I am excited to see who he will bring on the team.

Filming Partnership Development Course
The Missionary Training Center developed a 5-day course on partnership development, and I will be filming it next week with a local team from Florida. We’ll eventually edit this to DVD, so the course can be shared with missionaries overseas. It’s hard for the teachers to take the course to everyone who needs it, so this DVD will be a big help for our missionaries.

Wild and Crazy Things
I’m going to the Philippines next month! I just bought tickets last week to go with Macon and a local photographer. We’ll be shooting some photos for NTM @work magazine, visiting a national training center and another tribal work. Please pray for safety as we travel many days of the trip from place to place. Also, please pray that we will be able to plan and create impactful stories, and be a blessing to those we meet during those three weeks. My cousin (who I haven’t seen in 4+ years) resides in the Philippines on a different island that I won’t be going to. Pray we can get to see each other somehow. Thanks!!

Prayer Recap

1. Pray that we’ll be able to launch the remaining international sites. (Slated for this fall.) And that a web team will come together that can take over for me, so I can be more focused on video editing.

2. Pray the video shoot this week will go well, and that we can slate a time for editing so it can be finished in a reasonable time.

3. Pray that I’ll be prepared for the Philippines trip, be a blessing, and that we’ll get some amazing videos from it, stay safe, and see my cousin! =)

P.S. My trip to New Jersey/Pennsylvania in April was very encouraging! Thanks for praying!
