because He is able...

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have an abundance for every good deed, as it is written: He scattered abroad, He gave to the poor, His righteousness endures forever. 2 Cor. 9:8-9

There is so much to be talking to the Lord about lately! Please continue to join us in prayer:

-The students, now joined by students who survived the collapse of their seminaries in Port-au-Prince, continue to sleep in the chapel and administration building, many on the floor, out of fear of sleeping on the first floor of the 2 story dorm. As of yesterday, there are only three or four sleeping in the men's dorm, especially once the entire student body 'confirmed' their fears by finding a small crack in the plaster on the second story.

Please continue to pray that the Lord would calm the fears of the hundreds of thousands that continue to feel tremors (this past Saturday, even) and that continue to be ruled by this fear. Please pray for freedom for EBS's guys, and for the many throughout Haiti who are crippled by nightmares of what has happened and fear for what still could.

-Last week, Mary Lou, the other missionary that worked with us at EBS and in Sakenville, left for her 6 months Homeland Ministry Assignment, basically, a time of rest and working with churches from Canada and the States. Please be praying for her during this time away!

-Luke, Paul and Matt have now become the leadership committee for EBS. Please be praying for them for all of the necessary wisdom, patience, communication, and stand-firmness in order to bring Him glory through the many ministries of the Seminary...which has now also expanded to all the new students from Port.

This, in addition to working through the arising kinks of a new campus and the start of a new much-delayed semester, is proving to be more than a full time job. Please be praying for all three of them and for their peace and joy in the midst. We're so thankful for such a fantastic group of men and women to serve and to serve with!

Please continue to pray for the many people throughout Haiti still seeking permanent shelter and daily food. Our hearts continue to just be broken by the huge need EVERYWHERE for help and hope. Please pray with us for wisdom, that we might seek strong after Him and find a way to live deliberately and in a thriving, not crazy-surviving-there-is-too-much-to-do-go-go-go! fashion!

THANK YOU for being our praying family!
