March Update

Things are picking up speed as winter heads into spring! Here's just a quick update with prayer requests:

Jesus is our Savior, in every sense of the word!
  •  We are coming to the end of our series on the character of Jesus in Youth Group. We plan to begin a new series on relationships and sexuality according to the Bible starting this week. Please be praying that the youth will be receptive to this new series

  • Pastor and Elders are OK with the idea that one of our main mission emphasis over here will be an English Club. This idea has been a long time in the making but we want to make sure that we start off on the right foot, particularly in the community. We hope to present our project to one of the chairmen at the local commune so that they understand that we want everything to be on the up-and-up and also to explain that we wish to supplement, rather than compete with English-language-learning services already offered by the commune.

The "Apples to Apples" picture edition that Havalyn translated into French for the youth club. Hopefully this will be useful for the English Club one day too.
  •  Club Tournesol (a monthly children's ministry and outreach run through the church) is on the 16th this month and Havalyn is planning the "Big Game" which has the theme, "The zoo." Please be praying that everything goes smoothly and that we are able to plant some gospel seeds. With the weather being so nice lately, hopefully we will be able to play outside (in the back yard of the church)

The sunset as seen from our apartment window - just another masterpiece from our God of glory.
  • We're seeking God's will for our future as we debate whether or not we will be going full-time missionary couple this fall. (JL currently works full-time as a bricklayer, helping in the church whenever possible, while Havalyn is a full-time missionary). Please be praying for wisdom and faith as we pray this through.
