Please Join Us in Thanking God:
- The flood waters in Madhipura are slowly receding. We have regular contact with our friends, and all are safe and slowly returning to their homes. The hospital will hopefully reopen in the next couple of weeks.
- We thank the Lord for providing a wonderful apartment right next to PTI and in the same complex as other seminary families.
- We are thankful Dinesh is already gleaning much from his studies.
- Please continue to remember those affected by the flood—that these circumstances and suffering may result in people turning to Christ. Pray for the hospital staff as they help bring relief to affected communities. May they exhibit a vibrant Christian love and witness.
- Pray for our Christian brothers and sisters suffering intense persecution in Orissa.
- Pray for Nayna. Shannon spoke with her a couple of days ago. Her family is very upset and have ordered her to leave the house because she has become a Christian and is attending church (though they have not followed through with this threat yet). They told her to remove her Bible from the home and tore up a Christian book she had. She continues to stand on her profession.
- Pray that Dinesh might maintain a proper balance with studies and family time. Pray the Lord may provide direction regarding the desire for village ministry and a day of surgical practice.
- Pray for the hearts of the village women to be open to hearing God’s truth. Pray Shannon might have wisdom in building these relationships.
- Pray we might keep our relationship with Christ the foremost priority in our life, protecting our time with Him, letting Him reveal and cut away areas of sin and becoming instruments He can use for His glory.
