Hi prayer team,
Thanks for keeping us before the throne. We are having really rainy weather, it’s is black skies, rain and even fog in the house! We are walking through swamp now for the most part and it is hard to get cloths dry just now! Things are ticking on as far as teaching goes, I am now teaching the fulfillment of Gods promise of the world flood and then next week we will be teaching on the tower of Babel. Please pray that people will see clearly again that we are all sinners, because of the sin in Adam and that we are in need of a redeemer. Pray that teaching through the story of Noah will show that we are just like those people who died outside of the boat. Pray that they will see that God keeps his promises and that there is only one door and one way to eternal life and peace with God. Some general prayer point: –
1) Pray for me as I would like to start and teach two new lessons per week in a while and that I and the hearers would be ready for the increase in information. Pray for the trainee teachers as this will increase their workload.
2) Pray for this new discipleship opportunity at our local high-school. Pray that the believing children will be strengthened in their faith and that teachers and other students may be challenged and see their need of the teaching.
3) Pray for Annika as she continues to learn Mengen that she would keep encouraged and progress well.
4) We have had some opportunities again with our local catholic leader, pray God would save his soul.
5) Our tractor shed and tractor at the airstrip are being damaged on a reasonably regular basis pray that we can find a solution.
6) I am developing bible studies for our trainee teachers on being a disciple, bible studies on marriage and child training. Please pray for wisdom as we teach through the basics of these topics.
7) Pray for longer periods of health, we seem to be down with illness on a regular basis.
8) Pray we will stay close to our Savior and rely on Him for the strength and encouragement we need daily.
9) Pray our regular monthly support would increase in line with the economy and expenses in PNG.
Thanks so much for your prayers and partnership in the gospel,
Simon, Annika, Nya and Noah
