Prayer Requests

·      Lift in prayer this weekend’s meeting of the 11 national ministry coordinators for Ecuador.  They will be meeting from Friday evening until Saturday afternoon.  There will be sessions for prayer, planning and equipping.

·      The Wrights wish to thank you, our prayer partners, for prayer regarding Al’s mother.  They have moved her to a Christian care center near their home, which allows many more relatives to visit her.  They continue to pray that God will watch over her during these final days.

·      Rev. James Higginbotham, former team member to Ecuador, sent in this request:  “Tests show I have a fast growing mass on one of my kidneys and a possible blockage of one of my arteries.  God answered prayers for my cancer before, and He can answer our prayers for this.”
