Teams and Travel:
We head to the interior with a team from Missouri the 1 week of May and then we have 3 weeks before our next team from Ohio arrives. 2 weeks after that we head to Springfield, MO for Abigail’s graduation and after that is a stop in Ohio to celebrate her with friends and family at her graduation party then back to Guinea and then …. there’s more, there is always more but we will save that for a future prayer request!
Abigail:
Her senior year is winding down and we would appreciate prayer that we celebrate her well in the midst of much happening. We pray that her moments and milestones are honored well because we don’t want this time to get lost in the busyiness of life and ministry. Pray for intentionality and for sweet memories as she makes to huge transition into adulthood. And pray for Abigail’s next steps, God has some huge things in the works that we can’t wait to share with you soon!!!
Please pray for all the documentation to make Hope church a reality. We have had difficulty getting our background checks, and the application for charity status started.
We have officially transitioned from our church and are now full-time raising support. Please pray for favor with churches and individuals.
We're been actively searching out a new vehicle for the last 6 months. Needed a larger SUV type with decent mileage that would last us driving across the USA.
God led Gary to a listing for a 2017 Toyota Highlander with only 73,000 miles (our CRV had 270,000+)! Its already been a huge blessing! Believing for provision to make the monthly payments.
Wisdom as we prepare to move OLI's base of operations from FL to MO - many details to process, housing, car, timing, moving funds, funds, etc. The travels in the first 6 months of 2026 will likely mean we won't begin the transition until June. First trip in March to setup our office went really well.
Favour when booking tickets. We need the best fare prices possible!
Rest, strength, vision, blood pressure, weight management, allergies, etc. Peaceful sleep.
2. Planning stages for significantly expanding into Mongolia (a restricted-access country) to aid the national church in reaching the nomadic tribal population. The General Sup reached out for a Zoom meeting. It went really well and then we had them Zoom in with our Team recent meetings. Exciting things to share in the near future about how our ministry can be a great help to them!
