Praises
· We thank the Lord for His blessings on and protection for the Arkansas/Kansas Work & Witness team as they were the first team to enter Colombia since the ‘80s. The team laid all the perimeter blocks for the first story of the Southwest Colombia District Center. Greg Hall from Kentucky accompanied the group. He and his wife, Dianne, are presently serving two months as Mission Corps in Ecuador. Dwight and Carolyn Rich hosted the team. Please be in prayer for the second group from Virginia which will travel to Colombia in November to continue the work.

· God continues to change lives through the Jesus Film ministry.

Prayer Requests
· The McKellips have sent in this request: “We received the good news that our shipment arrived in the port of Los Angeles and has already cleared customs. Please pray that all goes smoothly with the closing on our house. We are scrambling to provide various documents, which is a more complicated process as we travel. We need everything to come together in the next two weeks.”
