Walker Update - 9/6/08

You remember the passage from Ecclesiates that begins:
Ecc 3:1 For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.


Well, the next 3 weeks will our time to recharge, draw nearer to our Father, pray about His plans for us, and prepare for training we'll be giving in the Philippines next month. We sure appreciate your support (prayer and finances) as we have really worked hard the past two months.  Tomorrow we go to our favorite beach bungalow (now has an internet connection).  We'll take some books.  Pray that we can follow thru on our desire to memorize and meditate on Scriptures.

Our time with Scotty, Heidi and kids was productive in a number of ways.  We had opportunities to teach, as well as getting to know their organization and talk with the director, Paul, a Papuan whom God has blessed with vision and lots of ability to build into the lives of other Papuans. PRAY as we consider working with them next year.  There is another Christian college that also asked us to help them with staff development. Both of these organizations desire that their students grow as followers of Jesus, as well as getting a good education.  Both are equipping teachers for the the purposed of offering high quality Christian eduction to village children in Papua, a huge need there.

Blessings,
Roland
