Nunquam Non Paratus


Prayer Letter :: August 2007

[Download the PDF version]


Dear Friends,
It’s almost time for our big move! We have grown in many directions as we have served here and we will look back with fondness on our time at Word of Life. The school grew in just about every way this past year, for which we praise the Lord.

This month we saw the fifth class of students (our largest yet) graduate. They have been an effective class for the Lord, with over 180 salvation decisions made through their ministry outreaches during the school year. It has been exciting to be a part of their lives. We pray they have learned and grown much and will continue to be faithful in their service to others. Troy will continue in the office into the middle of September, helping year six get started.

Westward Ho
With the help of Naomi’s mom, Naomi and the girls will fly to Calgary on September 30. Troy will arrive a few days later with Naomi’s dad in the van. At least we hope it will go that smoothly. There are still a few details to be worked out concerning the transportation of all our worldly goods among other things, but we are excited to see things falling into place. The Lord has certainly been good to us.

Specific Prayer Requests
  • that all the details involved in this big move would come together and nothing would be overlooked
  • safe and uneventful travels
  • a smooth transition into our new life, as a family and as missionaries
  • guidance and provision as we look for a place to rent or buy
  • that we would reach our goal of 60 prayer and financial partners

Thank You
Those two words seem so paltry for the gratefulness in our hearts to those of you who have stood behind us for these last five years. We have been blessed again and again as you have encouraged our hearts in many different ways. We look forward to updating you in another few months on the great things the Lord has done for us as we begin our ministry with GoodSeed.

Thank you for your prayers and support!
