Please pray for the repairs needed and for the people’s needs. *The students of Theological English have completed the course work and exams. They still need to complete the required project of teaching one colleague the reading strategy they learned to read three theological articles. Please pray for them to complete this well by January 31. Thank you!

Giving Tuesday fundraiser for increased cash in our travel funds account. Already 3 events planned for 2025 need to have the funds so we can say yes to all opportunities!

There's are donors (churches) that made commitments and either didn't start giving OR have stopped. Also, there are those who increased their commitments on paper and didn't start sending in increased amounts. Following up with these!

We need God to send angels to protect us as we travel to and from the office. We pray at the start of each trip as well!

Understanding of how to write the Children's Ministry lessons for the oral learners. We're now working to understand and research the other lessons that have been written for OLBI (oral learners Bible Institute).

Praise God that He gave us creativity for our speaking assignments at the Children's Ministry training in Bangladesh. There were 100 attendees from the churches all over the country and the current Bible school students. Good feedback from the missionary & translators.

Monthly budget:  there's a number that made commitments and either didn't start giving OR have stopped.  Following up with these!

We are praying that the Lord will give us the remaining 30% monthly budget so we can get to Indonesia by January 2025

Landumas live mostly in small villages of 50 to 400 people. Many believe Christianity is the religion of foreigners not for Africans. Pray with us that as we live among them, we model a life of love, in the power of the Holy Spirit, and that we can share with them the truth of the gospel. https://joshuaproject.net/people_groups/12979/GV

Please pray for the people of Europe to respond to the call of Christ and for God to sustain the families and particularly the missionary kids that are serving there.

Jay has battled cancer twice (in 2021 and 2023) and while he has finished treatment and received good reports, we are always appreciative of prayer that he will not have any more reoccurrences and will continue to regain strength.

Jay and Emily are in the States trying to raise support as quickly as possible to be able to return to the mission field soon!
