Prayer Requests

I know many of you will be praying for us as we go to China. Here are some specific thing:

Xan and Brennan:

-that they will sleep well while they are away from home

-that God will comfort them when they are missing mama and papa.

-that they would have so much fun with their grandparents that they won't have much time to miss us.

-for God's protection and safety while me and Bucky are so far away.

Sasha:

-that he will be able to keep his grades up and not get overwhelmed with school

-for God's protection and safety

-that he will rest well and be ready for school

-that he will have a wonderful time with the Drake's.

Bucky and Julie:

-safe and peaceful flights

-that we will stay healthy

-that God might give opportunities to share our faith while we are away

-patience, love and long suffering if Rebecca has a hard time with the transition

-that we would be able to win Rebecca's affection quickly

-that God would give us special discernment regarding her special needs and how to care for them

-that God would keep a snow storm from hitting Chicago anytime around Feb. 8th and 9th

-that we would be able to get through Immigration in Chicago on the 9th quickly in order to make our flight home

Rebecca:

We really have no idea what to expect here...

-Her emotions after being taken from all she has ever known and left with strangers

-her health

-for her to sleep peacefully and adjust to USA time quickly once we get home

Thank you for praying!
