Gospelink update

The correspondence this quarter has gone much more smoothly than usual. Thank you for praying! We're have just two envelopes left to come in. You can keep praying for those, and for the big package that Will just sent off to the Gospelink office.

Gospelink mail

Please pray specifically for the mail to move quickly as we're waiting for papers and letters to come in for Gospelink, and as we send two pounds (!) of paperwork off to the US office.

Keep praying

There's nothing new to report on our document situation. Just keep praying.

Gospelink work continues, so please keep praying about that, too. You can read the last request I posted about Gospelink for details. There will be more meetings coming up soon. (The travel last week did go well. Praise the Lord for that.)

Pregnancy continues to go well overall, but it's hard day to day.

Gospelink

This is a Gospelink busy time. Here are several specific requests:
1. Will and many of the men will be traveling on Monday to meet up in and near Moscow. Pray for safety. (Pray for me at home with the children then. It's hard without Papa these days!)
2. Pray that all of the men would be responsible to bring their letters with them to the meetings and not complicate things for Will.
3. Pray that even without a convenient phone and internet connection we would be able to do all the necessary communicating in a timely fashion this quarter. (And that everyone else would cooperate in that, too!)

Gospelink

We just need extra prayer for keeping up with everything, even with limited communication abilities.

General update

PTL! We have electricity at the dacha!

Also, we're moving to the first floor here in our building. That has taken priority over the dacha right now. Will has slowly been moving things yesterday and today. On Thursday we'll ask friends to come help with the big stuff.

Tomorrow Will needs to go to Moscow to pick up the letter about our visas and meet with someone about Gospelink business. Friday he has a meeting in Ivanovo, but he may end up staying here to finish moving instead. Please pray for travel safety.

On Sunday Ira, Yulia and Will invited the children from the Bible lessons to come to an end of the year party. We can't go to them, but they can come to us. Three girls showed up.

Please continue to pray for our landlord's family situation. Instead of moving in here with his daughter, he's found someone else to live here with her.

And please keep praying for me to get a new visa!

Did I forget anything?

Gospelink

Will's trip to Moscow went well. One of the men didn't make it, and we haven't heard why yet; pray that all is well with Andrei and family. Will's next trip should be May 23rd or so.

Travels

Will's trip to Moscow for Gospelink is coming up tomorrow. Please pray for him, for the men who will be coming to meet with him, and for us at home.

Gospelink

The 1st quarter money just came in. Will had a great opportunity to meet with most of the Vladimir-Ivanovo men at once, so he's in Ivanovo today, distributing support money and collecting papers. Please pray for his travels; he'll be going to meet with other men in the near future, too. Pray that we'd be able to get this quarter's work wrapped up faster than usual.
