Owen Weekly Prayer Requests

We are getting ready for a big, busy week. Here are some things for which we would very much appreciate your prayers...
  1. Joyce's health: Saturday night Joyce had a recurrence of whatever has been bothering her. We went to the clinic but it was closed and she did not want to go to emergency at the local hospital. She slept all day Sunday and is feeling well enough to go to the pre-school today. Please pray for recovery and that the docs can figure out what is wrong with her.
  2. Meetings with Mission Directors: I will be meeting this week with directors of two different missions that are interested in working with PIBC. Both already are working with us and we are looking into how to grow the relationship. Pray that we will have God's wisdom in what we need to do.
  3. PIBC Board Meeting: Our annual board meeting is March 28-30. We have several important issues to discuss including a major curriculum revision. Again we ask for wisdom and strength for the leadership and direction of the school.
  4. Michael, Samantha and Titus: Please pray for God's direction for their future. Some possibilities for next year include teaching at Yap High School, going to Dallas Seminary, teaching at a Guam high school or working for PIBC for a year before seminary (grandma and grandpa like that one!).
  5. Preparation for our summer furlough: We pretty much have our June Schedule done, but we still have many open spots in July. Please pray that we can get to all our supporting churches and get some vacation time. If you would like to have us speak at your church, Bible study, mission meeting etc we would love to do it.
Thank you for praying. We could not do anything worthwhile without it.

He you Owens, its so nice to hear from you, even though those are not too good news about the health of Joyce. I will really pray for her. But also for the other things you wrote about. For me, since 12th of March I'm now in Calgary, working with Wycliffe in the IT Department. Still in the process of get setteld.

God bless
