Pray that He would continue to sustain their faith and guard their families from harm.

“The Harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest” (Matthew 9:37-38).

Workers in a sensitive field have written regarding the high school they established and oversee: “What a difference God can make in a month’s time! And while things generally seem to take years here, we were encouraged just this weekend as we visited with two of our staff who were sharing about the difficulties and the rewards of working cross-culturally at PHS. They have witnessed themselves the change in student’s as well as parent’s attitudes after experiencing the kind of care and love PHS teachers and staff give. Even neighbors of some of our students have commented on the positive change in behavior they see. Parents have become kind and supportive when they realize we really do care about their child and want to see them reach their potential. All of these things work together that our students and their parents might see the Light of Jesus Christ in His servants.” Praise God!
