Today we will be getting up at the crack of dawn to leave this country.  We will be on a plane for a long time.  Pray for mobility as we try to maneuver through security.  Pray that the military will not hinder us from leaving.  Also, pray for safe flights as we come back to America.  We look forward to seeing you all Sunday:)

Today we will be flying back to the capital city in the country we are in.  Please pray for our families today that the Lord will give them a peace concerning our trip.  At this point, we have been in the communication dark.  This team is working by itself in a country with no missionary or church presence.  The internet is a luxury that we don’t always have here.

Be in prayer for the team today as we visit many Islamic holy places.  Protect us from the evil one and give us the strength, and sensitivity to share when we are able.  Pray for this team to be a light in the darkness and that people will notice.

Today, the team will enter into the heart of darkness.  A country that is labeled by voices of the Matyr as hostile to the Gospel.  Pray that we may have wisdom in sharing and discernment of our surroundings.

Please pray for the families back home of the team that they may realize that our God is watching over us.

I big day for prayer.  Pray for Trunk of Treats as the church has potential to minister of thousands of people that do not know Christ.

Also, pray for the Central Asia team as we leave for our second country tonight.  Last time it took us 4 hours to get to the airport we leave from.  Pray that we get there quick and safe.  We also fly out close to mid-night and we fly all night.  Please pray for strength and sleep.

Today will be a neat day.  We will be able to worship with our Central Asian family.  This will be an underground church.  Pray that it will be a time of sweet fellowship and that God will work in a powerful way.

The team has arrived at their first destination country where they will spend a couple of days and then head to the next country. Pray for a good night’s sleep for the team.

They will hopefully have the opportunity to meet with some fellow brothers and sisters while there. Pray it is a sweet time of encouragement for all!

Well, a new day and we are still traveling.  We will reach our first Central Asian country today around 5pm their time.  This is a huge metropolitan area.  This city is so overpopulated, it took us close to 2 hours to get were we are going:(  Please pray for a good night’s sleep for us.
