Prayer requests from Nick

Some prayer requests,
  • safety during travel and on the work site.
  • opportunity to go to the local schools and talk about the crucifixion and resurrection.
  • for our family members that will be staying here.  It can be tough on children and spouses being gone for 10 days
  • for God to work in each of our lives to show us the great need to spread the gospel around the world.
  • to be an encouragement to our missionaries Ken & Clea Rathbun.
Some things that I am looking forward to on the trip are the opportunity to go to the local schools and to get to know Ken & Clea better. 
We don't get opportunities to speak about anything religious in nature in our schools here in the states, let alone about the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  This is a huge opportunity especially in the week leading up to Easter Sunday.  
I also look forward to getting to know Ken & Clea better on this trip and to hopefully be an encouragement to them and their ministry.  Taking trips like this allows us more time with our missionaries that we don't normally get and gives us an opportunity to really get to know them better and their heart for their ministry.
