Prayer Mail

Dear Partners in Prayer,
Peace be with you.
This is our weekly public prayer mail for 4 April 2011.

Thanksgivings:

1) For the spiritual closeness to God that we have been having.

2) For the spiritual warfare progress that we have had, particularly today.

3) For the excellent Diocese of Peru Synod yesterday.

4) For our friends in Peru, and our friends elsewhere.

5) For our Biblical interpretation class last week. It was really awesome to see God pull things together for the students.

6) For the great coffee hour consumables at the mission of La Ascension that Julie and Lydia prepared (and yes, I did help).

Prayers:

1) For students and classes this week and next. This is the last week of the current cycle. Our exam week is next week. Pray for the students as they prepare for their exam.

2) For students as they prepare to decide what courses they will take next cycle. The next cycle begins after Easter Week.

3) For Holy Week and Easter Week preparations.

4) For Lydia´s preparing-for-college trip in July/August.

5) For which churches and groups to visit in the Diocese of Albany, during July and August, to talk about our work in Peru. If you would like us to visit a parish, a group, or a deanery gathering - such as a deanery picnic, please let us know.

6) For the relationships and spiritual protection of missionaries and other diocesan team members in Peru, and for our ministries, finances, resources, and priorities.

7) That we would be able to keep on top of all the things that God would like us to do.

Thank you for praying for us. Your praying makes a difference for us, and I pray for you every day.

God bless you,
In Christ,
Shaw, and on behalf of Julie and Lydia
