December Prayer Letter

Worship time at my church retreat in October

“The Christian should never worry about tomorrow or give sparingly because of a possible future need. Only the present moment is ours to serve the Lord, and tomorrow may never come. Money is really worth no more than as it can be used to accomplish the Lord’s work. Life is worth as much as it is spent for the Lord’s service.”

- George Muller

• Collins enters his final year of high school in January.

• Mark Deng Deng finished high school this year. He has the opportunity to travel to his home area in Sudan for the 1^st time since he fled as a young child ten years ago. Pray for his safety and emotional well-being. He expects to return to Kenya in three months.

… and the list goes on and on.
