Friends, we desperately need your prayers. Lots of them.
Our team that will be traveling to Haiti in T-minus 2 and a half days seems to be under great attack from the enemy. Myself included. And we need your prayers! We have sick folk, extreme anxiety, depression, laziness, apathy, and general fears that are attempting to paralyze our team. Lies from the devil run amok right now, and it has been a battle for every one of us to maintain our Gospel-centered posture with the enemy attacking in any and every way he can. Please, please be in prayer for us! With the strength of God, we can overcome this attack to be a truly effective team for the short time we are in Haiti, but we need all the help we can get. There are a few specific prayer requests, and some general ones as well.
Please pray that everyone, especially J., would be healthy and well for this trip, so that we are not distracted with ill health. J. is one of our pastors, and we need his leadership and skills to be the most effective we can be.
Please pray for the discipline of everyone on the team, that we would be actively aware of the battle we are in the midst of, and would be fighting against the enemy in every way we can, especially through prayer and being in the Word.
Please pray especially for W., that she would find peace and strength in her journey to Haiti, where she will remain not just for a week, but for the entire summer. Please pray that she would be an effective Gospel light, and that all of her anxieties would be cast away and laid on Christ.
Please pray that, if it be God's will, our travels would be safe and easy, and if it not be God's will, that we as a team will be reminded of God's great sovereignty, and that through whatever difficulties we encounter, we will continue to be a Gospel light, and that God will be glorified through our actions.
Please pray against the anxiety and fear of everyone on the team.
Please pray, most of all, for the people of Ouanaminthe, Haiti, that their hearts be opened to the Gospel, and that they might see the glory and love of Christ through us.
