We are doing our best to keep it below $1,600.
OUR MISSION PARTNERS
MISSION EURASIA
Let me briefly list the events scheduled here over the next week. Please pray for our Ukrainian team as well as our guests. Pray for unity, Spirit-filling, and joy as we serve. Pray that the team from Maryland (Chinese Bible Church of Maryland) would be able to encourage the team here greatly and that the Lord would use the outreach events to transform lives.
6/23 (Sunday) - worship - I will preach as well as a pastor from our visiting church
6/23 (Sunday) - Picnic for Church Leaders and their families - we want the church to be encouraged and unified through events like these.
6/24 (Monday) - English club outreach
6/25 (Tuesday)- Men’s gathering for the church and unbelievers
6/26 (Wednesday) - Food distribution and Gospel outreach with refugees

As you can read, there are many events planned. Pray also for stamina as well as daily boldness.
We head to camp on Sunday the 1st of July. Pray for all our final preparations for that great week with over 80 kids. Pray for me as I prepare to speak three times during camp.
Prayer for the unreached of Eurasia: You have prayed as we have developed materials for equipping the church to engage the unreached in Eurasia. Please continue to pray for that process. I wanted to share a wonderful resource to help all of us to pray for the unreached of Eurasia.
