Prayer Requests: November 29

Dear family and friends,
Join us in praying for the following things this week:
*Several boys and staff members are still sick.  Pray that they may rest and be restored to full health soon!


*Keep Juan Carlos Ortiz in your prayers as he continues to discern where the Lord is leading him.  He recently took the admission exam at El Sembrador (where Arle just graduated from) in hopes of starting there next February.  Pray that he may have peace of mind and trust in the Lord and His timing.


*This week Marvincito will be moving from Casa Crea (where he has been for the last month and a half) back to Jimmy Hughes ministries, where he was earlier this year.  He has grown a lot in the past few months and continues to move forward with his life.  Pray that he will continue to make wise decisions and seek after the Lord. Pray also that the transition back to JH will go smoothly and that he will feel comfortable there again.

*Brayan Chavez graduated from his YWAM program in Costa Rica a few weeks ago.  He is spending some time in CR with Jose and some other friends.  He will be returning to Honduras in early December.  He is not quite sure what the next chapter of his life looks like.  Pray for discernment and open doors for him.  May his transition back to the Timothy house go well and may he be welcomed with open arms.  We are looking forward to having his joyful presence back soon!


*We had a great visit from MDPC! We are thankful for the time they spent with us and in getting to know the different aspects of Micah.  We are grateful for such great friends!

*Simon Kafie, a Honduran friend, is hosting a birthday party/fundraiser for Micah this weekend.  We pray that many eyes and ears will be opened to the great need here in Honduras.  May people feel called to join the Micah family and support our ministry. 

*Daniel Benitez is graduating from Zamorano Agricultural University this weekend with a degree in Agricultural Engineering. Keep him in your prayers as he moves back to Tegucigalpa and figures out what the next step in his life is.  Pray that God will guide his steps and lead him where He wants him to be.  We are very proud of Daniel and all that he has accomplished. 

Many thanks for your constant love and support!

Grace and Peace.

Good morning family and friends of Micah!
This week we ask you to join us in prayer for the following:

*Many of the boys and several of the staff members have been sick with colds and sore throats.  May they get some much needed rest.  Pray that they may all feel better soon and be restored to full health.

*Continue to keep Arle in your prayers as we figure out what his future plans look like.  May God open doors and pave the way for him. We trust in our Heavenly Father and the great plans He has for Arle's life,  "plans to prosper him and not to harm him, plans to give him hope and a future."

*Sanity, hope, patience, rest, and strength for the staff.


*Thanks to the hard work of Roger and John all of the boys have jobs for the vacation period! The boys have a variety of jobs from working in VLM, to bagging groceries, to washing cars.  We are very thankful for all of the opened doors and opportunities the boys have been given.  As they go about their different jobs may they be lights to those around them.  May others see Christ in them by their hard work and actions.

*This week we have a vision trip visiting from Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church in Houston, TX.  We are excited to have them here and pray that their eyes may be opened to all that You want them to see here Lord.  May they feel welcomed and enjoy their time here in Honduras.

*We are privileged to have the ambassador of Spain and the Honduran Minister of Youth visit the Micah House this week.  They both have many scholarships available and other opportunities to help Honduran youth move ahead in their lives.  Pray that there may be many opportunities for our boys to partner with them in the future.

Thank you in advance for the prayers that you will lift up this week to our awesome God.
Grace and Peace to you.

Prayer Requests: November 15

Wow, what a busy but awesome weekend! We have so much to be thankful for!  Please join us in praising God for all of his many blessings and also in lifting up our needs to Him.

*We had many visitors here this past week and we praise God that all went well with their travels.  It was great to have family and friends and first time visitors here with us for a few days.  They were such an encouragement to all of us. We are so blessed to have such a big extended family that comes to love on us.


*As many of you may know Miguel, Wilmer, David, Junior, Arle, and Daniel graduated this weekend.  We are so proud of them and all of their accomplishments.  God has brought them so far and we look forward to what He has in store for their futures.  The theme of graduation was "I Want to Walk as a Child of the Light" and it is our prayer that the graduates and also the rest of the Micah boys will continue to be lights to those around them.  May they use the talents and gifts God has given them to share His love with others.

*A few of the younger Micah boys will be working out in VLM helping Santiago a few days a week during vacations.  A couple boys will be working at a car wash and one at a restaurant.  Some of the boys are still looking for jobs and are going out this week to other locales.  Pray that they would be successful in their job hunts and find something that they like to do.  Pray also that they may learn good work habits, what it means to work hard, and how hard work pays off.

*The elementary students will have reinforcement classes a few days a week starting this week.  They will be focusing on reading, math, and Spanish.  Pray that this may be a time of growth, development, and preparation for all of them.  May they stay focused and motivated in the next month of classes.

We here at the Micah Project are so thankful for your love, encouragement, and prayers.
Grace and Peace to you.

This week please join us in praying for the following:

*Jenna's residency papers came together and she was able to make it into El Salvador!

*Hectorcito celebrated his three year anniversary with Micah this week! He spent many years on the streets and it truly is a miracle that he is with us today and has been able to put his street life behind him.  We praise God for all that He has done in Hectors life.  We are so thankful to have this happy, goofy, smiley kid in our lives.  We are very proud of Hector and all that he has accomplished in his three years at Micah and we look forward to where God will take him in the future.

Thank you for your faithful prayers, support, and encouragement.  We greatly appreciate all that you do for us.
Grace and Peace to you.
