Quick update of prayer requests!
(again, news at http://lydia-in-png.blogspot.com/2011/06/sunday-tuesday.html)
- Please pray for the 10 pastors and 9 wives that were ordained at Church here on Sunday. It was great to hear a bit of their testimonies and to see them publicly committing to the Lord's service. It was also really encourgaing to see the acknowledgement and support of the wives' roles in the ministries (which is quite counter-cultural).
- Please pray for the patients on the wards who are hearing about Jesus from the hospital chaplain; particularly a family who have just been told that the mother has incurable cancer, and another family who are saying they want to take their child away for a few days to do 'customs'. Please pray for the truth and comfort of Jesus in their situations.
- Please continue to pray for the missionaries here, serving under often difficult circumstances.
- Please pray for me to not get too busy with medical activities that I do not spend time listening to God.
Many thanks! Lydia
