Prayer Requests: April 17

Good morning from The Micah Project!  This week we ask that you join us in lifting up the following things to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ:


*Our elementary boys had their first quarter exams last week.  The majority of the boys passed their exams but there are a few who are struggling academically.  Pray that they may be more focused and motivated with their studies.  May they learn to be responsible and manage their time well.  We are going to be having "study hall" with them a few times a week to help them learn good studying habits.  Pray that those times will go well and that they boys will learn to appreciate the great gift of education that they have been given.


*The Mama Jo bakery continues to do well and make delicious baked goods.  They have been working on getting a local coffee shop chain as a client.  They have had several meetings with this client and are working through things.  This week they will have stands in one of the local malls.  Continue to keep this business and all the women involved in it in your prayers. 


*We were blessed to have a few friends from Houston visit for a day. Melody, Howard, and a new friend, Amy, stopped by Tegus on their way back to Houston.  It is always a great encouragement when friends come to visit.  Melody was able to accompany some of us to visit Axel Lopez at Free The Oppressed Ministries. Howard (who is on the Micah board) spent lots of time with Michael and Olvin working on Micah 2.0 plans.  We are grateful for their (quick) encouraging visit.



*Keep the staff in your prayers as we have had many busy, crazy, and non-normal weeks filled with lots of activities.  May the Lord give us the rest we need to continue ministering to and loving on the people we come in contact with each day. 


We are blessed to have such a wonderful "extended family" in the US who is constantly encouraging and supporting us.  Muchas Gracias!
Grace and Peace.
