Praises

·      Yesterday, God performed several miracles to legally protect missionary Stan Hall when a young man stepped in front of his van while Stan was driving from Shell to Quito.  Even more miraculously, God healed the young man who many thought was dying just two hours before.  We serve a BIG God who performs miracles before we even have the time to whisper a prayer!  Go to the Hall’s family blog to read the incredible story:  www.hallupdate.blogspot.com.

·      We also praise God for His work in the lives of our Seminary students.  Go to the front  page of this blog to read the powerful testimony of Maria Luna, a single mother with two children.

Prayer Requests

·      Several people are traveling from Ecuador back to the States this next week.  Please lift in prayer these people:

o   The MVNU team of students who have been serving in Ecuador this week.  They travel on 6/7 and 8.

o   The Hall family as they begin their Home Assignment.  Sherri and Landon travel on 6/11.  Stan and Mary travel on 6/13.  They are praying for God’s anointing on their deputation services, that God can use them to draw people to Him and His work around the world.

o   Gail Zickefoose as she finishes the Seminary class she’s teaching and returns on 6/13.

·      Pray for Mike Moyer, one of the MVNU students in Ecuador, who is struggling with several health issues.
