New Semester Prayer Requests

It's been a long, cold winter break but it's finally over. Our new semester of teaching starts tomorrow and everybody in our family and in the Shaoxing team is ready to go! Last week we had a short time of talking + prayer about the new semester and we're excited about the opportunities we'll have with so many new students.

In addition, we're looking forward to building on the relationships that we built last semester as we watch God water the seeds we've planted! After a semester of getting setup in our new city, building relationships, and having some smaller Bible studies, we think this semester is really the time for us to hit the ground running.

We're aren't totally set on meetings/outreach/service projects/etc will be going on this semester, but we have several ideas. We know for sure though that we're going to try to work with the local student group more (remember the Christmas performance?) by partnering together on some things and hopefully starting some mentoring relationships with some of the leaders in that group. We'll let you know more about the specifics of our ministry this semester as we nail down our plans.

In the meantime, please be praying for these individuals that our family studied with several times last semester and hope to see grow this semester: Teeth, Emily, Roxy, Jenny, David, and Bridge. Also be praying for lots of good opportunities to reach new individuals and reach out into our community in new ways!
