Prayer Letter/Ministry Update

photo

During my next 21 months on the field I will be resuming my ministry of teaching at the nursing school.

The 10 nursing students will already have begun their next trimester of nursing studies when I arrive. So I will hit the ground running helping with clinicals at the hospital in the mornings and teaching the next level of pharmacology in the afternoons.

I will also be looking forward to resuming church planting activities, specifically teaching Sunday school or mentoring other African lay people to teach, in an area called Doussala.

Have a great 2009 everyone! Love, Lisa

Prayer Requests/Answers to Prayer

PRAISE: For God’s provision of a car and a house for my fall home assignment. THANKS to GOD and to ALL OF YOU that provided in his name.

PRAYER: -Please be in prayer for my transition back into french speaking nursing school instruction.
-Pray also for the doctors and surgeons who are working and training each day at the hospital.
-Pray for unity, wisdom and vision for our team as we face decisions and transitions of all kinds.
Pray for the various church planting efforts of all the missionaries and Gabonese evangelists.
Pray that God would use us to help the local Gabonese churches catch a vision for missions and reaching people beyond their borders.

URGENT GIVING NEED (I don’t usually put these in here, but this is urgent, and is in need of mentioning):

The Hospital Special Projects Account is the lowest our missionaries have seen it for several years. This is the account that we rely on heavily to help us pay for spare parts, repairs of lab machines, and a host of other semi-emergent needs that impact patient care.

The Poor Fund is the other approved special account important to patient care, because it allows the hospital to care for indigent patients while staying in the black.

Go to www.bongolohospital.org for more info if God puts it on your heart to help out either of these 2 accounts.

Pray.

The Alliance believes wholeheartedly in the power and necessity of prayer. We cannot “Live the Call Together” unless prayer is central to all we do—as a denomination, as churches, and as individuals.

Give.

You can help build Christ’s Church around the world by donating online to the Great Commission Fund. This fund finances our missionaries, allowing them to focus on ministry rather than raising their own support.

Serve.

Is God calling you to full-time service? Do you want to experience missions firsthand by participating in a short-term missions trip? We want to help you connect your passion with God’s purpose.
