Early Winter 2018
Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne.
The Revelation 8:3


No greater gift can we give than our prayer to the Lord. Prayer is a complete surrender to God in mind, will and spirit. It is a demonstration of our dependence upon Him for all things. How can we not pray when we have received so much from Him already?!

  1. We ask that you praise the Lord with us for a great ending to our sabbatical this year and a good start into our first furlough leg, ie. Partnership Updating. Next month December begins the second leg of our furlough, Partnership Development. 1 Corinthians 15:57.
  2. Give thanks to God for the great start of the PLAN panta ta Ethne community with our myriad of invitations around the globe. Join us in thanking God for fruitful closure to many years of ministry with the Frontiers Colombian Sending Base team as we now enter a new season of ministry. 2 Corinthians 2:14.
  3. Implore God on our behalf for His provision as we work hard night and day to share the vision of His Great Commission To All Peoples. We are asking God at this moment to bring twenty persons alongside us to give $100.oo per month faithfully to meet our personal financial need in order that we might continue challenging the Church, English or Spanish-speaking, with Jesus’ Commission to take the Gospel to the Unengaged Unreached Peoples of the World. Pray that we are faithful to discharge this Commission, coach and train Latin Americans to participate in His Commission to the Nations. Matthew 24:14.
  4. Thank God with us for His provision of a job and good living situation for our son now living in Houston, TX. We see him thriving there in many good ways. Proverbs 11:28.
  5. We request prayer for our health, and continued healing for my ankle. We have been challenged with sleep deprivation and ask for prayer that God keep us healthy in the midst of a rigorous and stressful schedule. Psalm 4:8.
  6. Pray for Chris, Camilo, Gabriel, Tatiana, Elkin and Leidy as they all enter into a new phase of mentorship with us. There are Muslim people being challenged significantly from Colombia to Argentina to Spain as these young people prepare for lifetimes of service. 1 Peter 2:9.
  7. Ask God for our deepening relationship with two particular church movements that show promise for reaching the abandoned Muslim peoples of the world. Ephesians 3:10.
  8. Stand with us in prayer as to our part with the Northeastern and Middle Eastern churches wishing leadership development with the possibility of receiving Latin American cross-cultural workers for work with nearby unengaged and unreached peoples. Ephesians 4:11-13.
