Prayer Update
I thought I would just let you know some of the things that are happening right now and that we would appreciate you remembering in prayer.
On a personal note, Mark has submitted the paperwork application for his next aircraft maintenance exam. He is busy studying while he waits for an exam date from the CAA.
For Sarah the year has started off quite busily. She is doing speech therapy on a weekly basis with seven children this term at Rainbow school. She will also be meeting with our lawyer in the next week, to start work on gathering the necessary documents to apply for Amy & Joshua’s adoption in a couple of months. She is really not looking forward to the process but counting on the promise that “My Grace is sufficient for you” and the end result will be worth all the hard work.
We have a couple more visitors planning to visit us, which is always a huge encouragement.
Our MAF planes are extremely busy right now. There is much need in Uganda and the countries around us… The fighting between militia and government troops continues in DRC. The Lords Resistance Army have also been active in Congo lately. Large areas of N Uganda and S. Sudan are facing drought and acute food shortages due to the lack of rain in recent years. Areas of S. Sudan are often unstable due to tribal fighting. With the country also facing elections in April it appears from a human perspective that the violence in Sudan is likely to get worse. Please pray for safety and wisdom for our pilots and engineers on a daily basis. That we would honour God in the work that we do each day and that we would use resources wisely.
