Preparing to go...

John Goodwin TH Mac indiv - Monday 23 July 2007

As I get ready to go I've got a few prayer requests...

  • Please pray that the time away would be a great chance to experience day-to-day overseas missionary work, and that during my time with the McCleans I would be useful.
  • Please pray for an evangelistic camp at the beginning of August, pray that this would be a wondeful time for the Thai students, and that they would learn more about God through this. Pray also that I would begin to settle in to a new culture before going away on camp.
  • There are English and USA teams currently staying with Johnny and Ann helping to run a series of events called LOOK! The teams will leave shortly after I arrive. Pray for opportunities to meet the people that they have got to know during the days where we overlap.

Thanks for praying, John

    Hi John,

    Just back from camp where a few CICCU bods have been with us... We have had a great yet challenging time, but it has been a privilege through it all to consider Christ - "Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart." Heb 12:2-3. Consider Christ!

    Will be praying for you John. I'm sure you will be a great help to the McCleans.
    'sin is rubbish, Jesus is all you need'.
    Hope you had a good journey. We are praying for your settling in and for The Lord to use you and encourage you all in His gospel work.
    Much love. RBPMJ
    Well, you have gone ! Be assured of our continued prayers. Love all at home.
