Prayer Requests: March 13


Good morning and blessings from Tegucigalpa!


*Many of you have heard about or seen pictures of Raul, a neighborhood boy who has been spending lots of time with us as well as studying in fourth grade at Micah.  His mom left him in the care of a lady in our neighborhood.  She is frequently sick and can't properly care for him.  We are discussing taking him in full-time (He often asks at night if he can spend the night).  Several meetings need to happen with him, the other boys, and his care-giver.  We would also need to begin all of the legal processes.  Pray for wisdom and discernment for the staff as well as Raul.  We want to provide him with the best opportunities that we can.


*This weekend we have a youth group coming from Central Presbyterian Church in St. Louis. (They have split themselves in two groups, the other one will come the following week.)  They will be participating in our street ministry, classes, and their big project will be building the wall surrounding Micah 2.0.  Pray for them as they prepare to come down, may their hearts and minds be ready for what God has for them.  Pray for safety as well in all of their travels.


*Please keep Micah 2.0 in your prayers.  Within the next week we should have the formal plans from the architect and engineer.  We are in the process of working with the water people to get the well started.  We are also working on registering the land, which could be a long process. Pray that all these things will go smoothly.  Olvin Fuñez has been hired on to help us with Micah 2.0 things.  We are so thankful to have him on board! 

*Continue to keep Axel Lopez in your prayers.  We are happy to report that he recently completed four months at Jimmy Hughes Free The Oppressed Ministries.  Pray that he will continue to move forward with his life and take steps in the right direction.    Pray for wisdom, guidance, and peace for him.  


We are so grateful for all of our "extended family" in the U.S. - God bless you and we hope that you all have a wonderful week!!

Grace and Peace.
