the comforts of our home & life here to travel to Tegucigalpa Honduras for a
mission trip. We are so blessed God has put together an awesome team! We
want to ask you for your prayers: safety for our 12 person team during our
travel & while in Honduras, health for each team member, the people of
Mogote are touched by God thru our work for Him, the family we are building a
house for to learn of God's love for them, our luggage arrives safely & in
tact & our team to have a bond. Your prayers are felt &
appreciated so much. Thank you for all the support every one of you give

Nature: (Simon-Philippe's
words) I am sorry for not being in touch these last weeks (or months for
some of you) I have been extremely busy with work at the Symphony,
volunteering etc... It does not help when you work often on Sundays! I
am leaving for Montreal on Monday. Then, I will have orchestral
violin auditions in Toronto and Buffalo. It is kind of stressful
because I don't have much time to prepare for them. I am trying to
follow what the Lord is asking me to do. I have some peace about
it even though it is very hectic. All I want to do is follow God's plan
for me in these end times. I don't want to set a returning date yet.
I need to rest at my parents house in Montreal after my auditions.
It has been a very tough season for me both emotionally and physically.
I am doing very well but I really need some time off this summer.

Nature: (Justin
& Christi's words) We are taking a mission team to Honduras in July!
God has filled our plate with an awesome team~amazing how His picture is bigger
than ours! We would like to ask you to pray for the safety of our team & God
has His hands on everything we do. We also want to ask if you have any items you
would like to donate needed by Hope For Honduras: medical supplies, crayons,
round ended scissors, play dough, glue, construction paper or simple board
games. All financial support will go towards our whole team cost, every $20, $50
or any amount great or small is so helpful (Hope For Honduras is a 501c3). Thank
you for your prayers & involvement! Faithfully His

Nature: (Leah's
words) The pastors have encouraged me to write a letter detailing my most recent
need for prayer. Lord willing, tomorrow will see me on a plane, bound for
Zambia, Africa, in anticipation of a three week trip there. As Pastor
Williamson has already explained in his April prayer letter, I will be aiding
the Williamsons in an effort to help expand an existing ministry to orphans in
Ndola, a town three hours from where the Williamsons live in the capital –
Lusaka. After a week of helping in this area, I will travel with the
Williamsons to their home in Lusaka, where the rest of the trip will be devoted
to exploring a longstanding desire of mine- opportunities for service to orphans
there. Pastor Williamson recently wrote of his new church’s burgeoning
desire to see an orphanage established in Lusaka. During the week of my
stay, I have been invited by the chairman of this venture at Kabwata Baptist to
discuss possible involvement in this exciting prospect. In addition,
I plan to visit and talk to contacts at five other existing orphanages/orphan
ministries that Kabwata Baptist supports in some way, in order to investigate
further these possible venues for future service. Finally, I hope to talk
to the director of a similar ministry at Lusaka Baptist Church (where Pastor
Kalifungua ministers) to inquire about their outreach to orphans as well.
Would you please pray for me in the following areas? That God would enable me to
be a true help and encouragement to the Williamson family (who only recently
relocated to Lusaka in January). That I would submit my plans while there to
God’s perfect will. Please also pray that He would make my way straight
so I would be able to gather the information that is necessary for responsible
decision making regarding these possibilities. One of Megan Williamson’s
favorite sayings is… “Remember- It’s Africa.” In this way,
she has encouraged me to make plans, but to remember that, in a heightened way
in Africa, those plans can be easily subverted or altered. That God would give
me and those who counsel me wisdom and discernment- both during and after my
trip- to evaluate the opportunities for service that I hope to further uncover.
That the Lord would grant me safety and relative good health during this
exploratory trip, so I will be able to accomplish these goals. Thank you
for remembering me before our Father’s throne!
