Some requests

We wanted to thank you for your prayers for my girlfriend.  She made it home safely from Paraguay.  She had a great time and was really encouraged by her week at the spiritual renewal conference.  I'm sure she will blog a little about her week either here or on her blog.

We also wanted to ask you to continue to remember Bronwyn in your prayers as she ministers to the people of Rwanda.  We'd like to ask for your prayers for her this week as she travelled to Kenya today participating in a women's spiritual retreat as well.  Please pray for her, as well as Louise and all the women who will be attending, safety and that she will be encouraged by her time with these women just as Benay was encouraged in her time with other Christian women last week.  

She won't have internet access this week but she told us that she did some scheduled blog posts that should appear on her blog this week.  Mainly just pictures.  She posted her first one today.  Click here to look at it. 

Finally, my parents are planning to visit us next week.  Someone has given them plane tickets to come to Brasil but they can only travel during March and April.  My dad's visa expired from his last visit her so they are in a mad scramble to get his new visa in his hands before next week.  We would appreciate your prayers for them that everything can get done in time and that they can come and spend a few days with us starting next week.  We have faith it will all get done.  We would also appreciate prayers for their safe travel. 

Our family has been doing a lot of traveling lately and we really appreciate your prayers for our safety.

Thank you in advance for your prayers for what we mentioned.
