Important Prayer Request

As we told you in our Autumn 2011 newsletter, we have been invited to return to Africa in November and December of this year to represent International Accelerated Missions (IAM) at Bible school graduations, ordinations, and to minister in several churches in Togo, Benin, and Nigeria. We have also been invited to teach at a Bible conference in Kenya. I made the mistake of asking you to pray in November and December for our trip. We need your prayers and your help NOW. The enemy has tried to hinder at every turn to prevent us from having the finances and the reservations in time to get the necessary visas so we can make the trip. We are currently about $3,000 short of what we will need for the airline tickets and the visas both of which cost more than anticipated. As we have prayed, God has confirmed that He is calling us to go because He wants to bless and encourage His children in Africa and He needs willing vessels that He can work through. This trip is not about us. It is about God’s heart for His hurting children in Africa. Please stand in the gap with us that every hindrance will be removed, that we will be able to purchase the right tickets at the right price and get the visas we need in time to make this trip possible. The longer the delay, the more expensive the tickets and visas become. Pray also that we will have all the resources we will need to cover food, lodging, and transportation while we are there in Africa. We know that God is more than able but we need your prayers to win this battle that Jesus Christ may be glorified. Thank You in advance for standing with us. May God bless you abundantly.
GOD LOVES YOU!!!
