  • MINISTRY- Joe’s first preaching opportunity is Aug 3rd and we know that is the first of many because this is what God called us here to do. Pray for fruitful ministry. Pray for divine encounters. Pray for transformation in Guinea! FRENCH- Much of our day to day French is coming back but we have so much farther to go. Pray for us as we diligently study for the language to stick and flow smoothly so that we can share the gospel clearly. ABIGAIL- School is a big part of her life. She is praying for a wonderful year and for lots of growth in not only academics. MATTHEW- This year Matthew has taken on new responsibilities. He is a small group leader and an assistant RA, while still running XC, and oh yeah, you know attending his college classes. Pray for wisdom in balancing. We know God’s grace will cover him.


  • We have a 1 month rental that is safe and cozy, PTL! This gives us time to find our permanent place. Pray with us for discernment and favor in the process. PRAISE REPORT- We have already found and are in the process of buying our STL car! God is so good!

Projects


Children's Tabs

We need funds to build 30+ Children’s Church structures in strategic locations throughout Guinea. These structures are used for Sunday school classrooms. They can also used to create kid’s camps and hold VBS services. They will also be used for Christian schools. This is an effective strategy to reach non-Christian children as local schools do not always provide an adequate education so many families are willing to send their children to our Christian schools.
