Prayer Requests: April 24

Hello dear friends and family of the Micah Project!  We ask you to join us in prayer this week and lift up the following petitions to our Heavenly Father:


*As you know our barrio (neighborhood) has become progressively more dangerous in recent months.  We are doing our best to keep our boys and staff safe.  Unfortunately last week one of our boys was assaulted and had his phone taken. Thankfully he was not harmed. But due to certain circumstances and for his safety we had to send him out of the city to live with his extended family.  This has been a difficult time for him but we pray that it may also be a life-changing time for him.  May he, and all of us at Micah, learn to depend on our Savior for safety and protection.  May we remember that He is with us no matter where we go.


*This week (Thursday) Axelito will be celebrating his 14th birthday!  We are so proud of him and how much he has grown and matured in his 2 years at Micah.  He is a constant source of joy and laughter.  Keep him in your prayers as he continues to move forward and that the Lord will shape into a fine young man.


*Last Friday was the Third Annual Charles Alford Memorial Golf Classic in Houston, TX.  We are thankful for all of those who went out and played as well as those who supported them and everyone who worked hard to put the whole event together.  Thank you for your time and support for the Micah Project!  Despite the rain it looked like everyone had a great time! 




*Hector Licona has spent the last year working at International School and has done a great job there.  However, he was recently offered a job in La Ceiba working with a missionary who plans to open a drop-in center for street kids.  Hector traveled to La Ceiba a few months ago to check out her ministry and get to know the kids a little.  He has accepted the job and will disciple the boys, give devotionals, visit the kids' homes, and provide protection for Kate as she has been working by herself.  We are very excited for Hector as he begins this new chapter of his life.  He will be a great asset to Kate and her ministry to the street kids of La Ceiba. 


Thank you so much for your constant love, support, and encouragement.  We greatly appreciate it!  God's blessings to you and your families this week!
Grace and Peace.
