Week 10 - prayer & praise

- HUGE Praise! We finally moved into our house on the 28th.

- Praise! We are very proud of our kids...they are doing a super job at aclimating and totally enjoyed a holiday without many personal gifts, visiting a local orphanage instead and were Rebecca's biggest supporters of going to the US to work 5 days in order to start our "adoption fund".

- Ana, our second to oldest, is due with baby #1 on Jan 25th, pray for a healthy end of her pregnancy, a smooth, safe, delivery and peaceful transition into the new role of parenthood. 

- Rebecca will be traveling again for an extended stay with Ana to help with her delivery and provide new mom recovery care. Pray for safe journeys as well as a blessed time with Ana & Ishai as they all welcome our new grandson!

- Keep everyone else in your prayers as they have to be far away for this special event. As much as we all ADORE babies it is a very difficult thing to be unable to attend our new family member's birth.

- Continue to lift us all up for resilience, ongoing transition, language acquisition, safety and joy in our new lifestyle here. 

- Pray for the teams arriving this month to have pure hearts, servants attitudes and to be the hands and feet of Jesus as they serve their local partner churches and the children. One is a large team of teens, so pray for a deep and life changing experience for each of them and for them to fully embrace their time in the Haitian culture. 

- As our roles expand, lift us up to always rely on God's strength rather than our own, to seek him in all that we do, to be humble, loving, and forgiving servants both within our own family and among those we minister with and to.

- We are preparing to add a young woman to our household to help the girls with their schoolwork. Pray for wisdom and guidance in developing that relationship and for the girls to thrive in their education.

- Tynan plans to return to FL on Jan16th, pray that God will provide good living arrangements, an awesome job and a reliable vehicle. He is also starting online courses next week. So, lift him up as he returns to both being away from home and hitting the books again. We'll sure miss him!
