May 2024 Update

Praise the Lord for…

  • A great Vision Trip in the GTA during April 22-26. There are great opportunities to share the Gospel in our nation’s largest city.
  • Being able to minister in 8 different settings over the last 4 weeks, apart from the Vision Trip.

Please pray for…

  • George’s needle biopsy on May 16th to check for cancer. The doctor expects it will be difficult. Pray that God will guide his hands.
  • George’s health and recovery following the biopsy. The procedure sometimes results in serious infection.
  • God’s direction as we continue to do necessary groundwork in preparation for the Open Toronto Initiative. 
  • God to send us about 12 more workers to be part of the  team. 

We are continually grateful for your prayers, support and encouragement,

WE are grateful to God for many things as we approach this Christmas season. Here are a few praise items below, with some prayer requests going forward.

PRAISE

  • After 4 months of looking, we have a new family doctor!
  • We enjoyed visiting many of our donor churches this fall. Many will continue support in 2024 for our new part-time ministry role!
  • We get to spend Christmas with family this year! This will the first time in 15 years since we left Canada for the UK.

PRAYER

  • For ABWE’s brand new OPEN TORONTO INITIATIVE (OTI) which we will serve in (click link for more info).
  • The OTI project is just beginning, with planning, research, survey trips and conversations to take place through the first half of 2024.
  • Ask God to raise up $140,000 project funding and the team of 12-15 workers for the OPEN TORONTO INITIATIVE.

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
