Bits and pieces

The last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind.  Simon came home a week past Sunday from South Africa and then his parents arrived for a three week visit the next day.  Simon's training down in South Africa went well but he was glad to come home and have life go back to normal (whatever that is :))

I have just finished teaching on the topic of Prayer for our ladies Bible study.  It truly has been an amazing time with the different groups and hearing how God has been speaking to them through this time of study and personal time on prayer.  I wish I could list all the encouraging things I have heard :)

The plan was to continue in our snail pace of walking through the Bible but God had other plans.  On April 25, after the school holidays, we will begin a new topic on Spiritual Warfare.  This was not what I thought would happen but definitely follows on well from our Prayer study.  Please, if you think of it, pray for this study and for our time together that it will be a time of great learning and encouragement.

I would also value your prayers as there have been some difficult member care issues to deal with.  Not everything goes smooth on the missionfield :)  Pray for wisdom for those involved and that issues would be resolved in a good way.  Thank goodness Simon is a support in this line of work.

On Saturday we are officially on holiday for one week.  Joshua and Zara finish up school on Friday for two weeks.  It will be nice to have a break and to spend some quality time with Simon's parents. 

Thank you to all of you who keep us in prayer.  We appreciate you and glad that you have our backs!
