The Pearlington Team - November 2006

Twelve People - Three Families

One Body

United to Serve as Christ leads us

Eight Days dedicated to serving our Lord

Eight Days of spending time with the Lord

Eight Days of journaling what God does in and through us

The team may not be complete - there are still some considering coming along - Please pray for them to make wise decisions - only God knows what is best for them. We would love to see them join us, if that is what God wants as well.

Some other prayer requests:

*These three families are making a sacrifice - some families will be separated for thanksgiving. Pray that this would be a growing time in the Lord and that marriages would be protected during this time apart. As one of the team members put it, "Yes we are sacrificing thanksgiving traditions, but my prayer is that this sacrifice would be seen by family and co-workers as being done to bring the good news of the gospel to people in need."

*Pray that we would be a fragrant aroma to those we meet, work alongside. My personal prayer is that we would bring joy to those we work with and that it would be hard to see us go, because they see Christ shining through us.

*Pray that we would be joyful in all that we are asked to do - no grumbling or complaining. If we do not know how to do something, help us to be humble in our asking for directions

*Pray that we would be generous with our time to those who just need a listening ear and generous in our hugs. It has been about 15 months since Hurricane Katrina hit this area. Many are still in FEMA trailers - they have been in a marathon and may just need some TLC.

*Pray for safety and for our trust in the Lord as He is sovereign in all that He does, even if that means their are injuries.
