Dear friends in Christ,
Please pray with us for the following two things:
1) A fellow-worker and dear friend, Tim Heiney, has just recently been diagnosed with a cancerous tumor on one of his kidneys. Please pray with us that God will grant him healing and comfort. Tim and his wife, Beth, are long-time missionaries in Africa (over 25 years I believe). He is currently a missionary in Guinea working among Muslims and also Area Facilitator for French-speaking West Africa. They had just returned to Africa after a furlough in the states and now must return to the states so that Tim can receive proper care. The “cancer” word can cause uncertainty and fear, so we ask for comfort and assurance for their entire family and that God would guide the doctors and bring Tim back to full health so that he continue to do God’s work in Africa.
2) Please also pray for my trip next week to Togo to attend the ordination of five former students. I will be leaving on Wednesday and returning on Tuesday of the following week. Pray for safe, hassle-free travel and that God use me to be an encouragement to our friends and co-workers in Togo. The entire seven day trip will consist of four days of travel by plane and two full days of bus travel and one day attending the ordination (six days of travel and one day of celebration!). Such is life of a missionary when working in rural Africa. Pray that God grant me strength and health.
We are deeply grateful for your prayers right now, my friends.
The Peace of the Lord be with you,
Glenn
