We have to thank you so very much for continually lifting us up in prayer. It feels as though we always have something we need prayer for and are grateful for brothers and sisters, teammates really, in Christ to help lift these burdens up to our Father.

Our friends in SIM Sudan, as well as other ministries, have begun the sad process of saying good-byes and leaving Sudan to wait out the referendum vote coming up on January 9. Would you continue to lift up Sudan as a country, her political leaders, the Church in Sudan, and missionaries effected by this vote. Only God knows the out come and I am thankful to have Him in control.

It has been hard to visit with friends who have come out or read their last emails from Sudan and hear their heart break over leaving friends behind, not knowing if they will be able to see them again. Would you specifically be in prayer for those who are leaving ministries and “family” behind and learning to trust in our Lord in a deeper way. The Lord can use whatever the outcome is for His good, but it is a struggle for those who are usually allowed to take part in His work to have to watch from afar. Our deepest thanks.
