OBERG PRAISE N PRAY – May 20, 2008

(This Praise N Pray will cover the next two weeks.  Thanks for praying!)

 

PRAISE God that the pastor’s house in Samorogouan is built!  There are only a few minor things to finish, and then it will be ready to paint and a pastor can move in.  Please continue to PRAY that this church will be a blessing in this village and that many will come to Christ.

 

PRAISE God for a good leadership conference this past week in Banzon.  It was well attended and there were some good discussion times.  Please continue to PRAY for our pastors and lay leaders in the Kenedougou region as God uses them to further His kingdom work.

 

PRAISE God for a good year of home schooling!  We’ll finish up with our classes this Friday.  We’re all looking forward to the two month summer vacation and we’re very thankful for how this past year has gone.

 

Please PRAY for Kevin as he travels to Sirasso tomorrow to take Pastor Marcel home after his minor surgery.  PRAY that he will be an encouragement to Marcel and the believers in Sirasso.  PRAY that the spiritual stronghold in this village would break and that people would start coming to Christ.  It’s happening all around Sirasso, just not in that village itself.

 

Please PRAY for our vacation to Ouaga.  We leave this Saturday and will return to Bobo the following Saturday.  PRAY that we will get the rest that we need and that it will be a wonderful time together as a family. 

 

Please begin PRAYing for a team coming to work with us from Moses Lake, WA, mid June.  PRAY as they make their final preparations for travel and that God would be preparing each person’s heart to be open to what He has for them during their time here.
