Here we go!!! We head out tomorrow for Mission de voyage in France!!! Please be in prayer! I copied and pasted some areas (from my Russia trip) that we need prayer in during our trip starting tomorrow through July 14th! Would you please be praying for all of the specifics!!
We will be working with Miguel Mendoza at Word of Life Camp in Dinan, France! Please pray as Pastor Paul is the camp pastor this week! Pray that the Word would be spoken clearly into the hearts of those students and that they will hear and know the Truth this week! Our students will be attending this camp and they have such an important job this week! Pray that they would build relationships with those students and be able to share their story of what Christ has done in their lives and as a result... lives will be changed! They have more of an impact than anyone else on this trip... so they need a LOT of prayers!! The rest of the adults will be doing Vacation Bible School for the missionaries children. Pray that we will be a blessing to them this week as we look after their babies and also teach them truths from the Bible!! We cannot wait to see all that God is going to do this week in Dinan, France!!
Basic needs:
~ Safety in travel: flights to be uneventful, pilots and drivers to be alert, pray we go through customs smoothly, pray for luggage to arrive the same time we do! :) (Deut. 1:30)
~Time zone adjustments- France is 6 hours ahead of us! (Ps 62:5)
~Health- Pray that each member will have strong immune systems and be healthy for the entire trip. Pray specifically that my food allergies won’t be an issue while eating different things. (Jer. 17:14)
~Opportunities to encourage the students there, the missionaries, their families and the Word of Life staff. May we be a blessing to them. (Eph 3:14-21)
~Divine appointments with French students/kids to share the Gospel; Pray for salvation, seeds to be planted and some watered! Pray for revival in the hearts of the French. Pray they see Jesus in us. (Prov 25:11)
~Spiritual Warfare: Satan wants us to not be effective. Pray Eph 6:10-20! For us to put on our armor, and protection of our minds, hearts and relationships amongst each other.
~Events: Our youth and Marisol will be going to youth camp (Pastor Paul will be speaking), the rest of us will be doing VBS with the kids! Pray that each is a sweet time of fellowship. We will also be doing whatever else is needed (construction, etc.) (1 Peter 2:5, 9)
~Pray for other team members: Suzanne Beville, Danielle Bockus, Marisol Clouse, Jemima Germain, CherylAnn Haley, Robin Jackson, David Kretschmar, Vanessa Lockwood, Caleb Purvis, Kimberly Purvis, Luke Purvis, Micah Purvis, Noah Purvis, Paul Purvis, Kayla Schieleit, Jill Shelton, David Twiddy, Kimberly Twiddy, David Allen Twiddy, Sarah Tyner(Col 1:9-12)
