Prayer
Changes Things ~ Give Thanks
Since the last prayer update, we had a real encouragement
with the provision of money that urgently needed toilet at the Changed Lives site
which I mentioned last time. The right amount of money came in from several
very unexpected sources and has been sent across to Romania. I haven’t had an
update from Nelu about it yet but the money was sent
in May.
Alex from Mustard Seed Romania asks
for continued prayer for:
· that
we in Jersey will resolve the difficulties they face in Romania with changing
requirements for donating/receiving relief aid (more on that later)
· that
bookings for the holiday camp will go well
Nelu from AVS has
asked for prayer for:
· WISDOM
to know how best to help their clients
· WISDOM
to know how best to develop the various projects.
· Rain
for the crops they grow at the Changed Lives site (very important for self sufficiency)
· Well
to be dug at the Changed Lives site.
· Good
health for all the Changed Lives clients but Nelu
especially asks for prayer for the clients Nelu, Florica, Constanta, Anamaria, Luminata,
and Adiana
Vasile and
Florina from Vineyard have asked for prayer for the following:
· Project
Simon – which distributes food parcels to up 350 needy pensioners in Oradea.
This outreach is dependent on how much funding is received before each distribution.
· Little
Vines – the kindergarten
· The
Vineyard Church in Oradea
Extra Vineyard prayer requests:
· Vasile and
Florina’s son gets married in July. We pray God’s blessing on him and his soon
to be wife
· Our
good friends Ken & Florence are spending several weeks in Romania late June
/ first half of July. Please pray for God’s blessing on all their travel plans
and arrangements and for good health.
In Jersey we give thanks for a
temporary honorary treasurer who is assisting us at the moment and ask for
God’s blessing.
Please pray our enquiries to find a church / charitable
organisation in the EU (preferably Brittany or Normandy) to collaborate with
will work out.
Alex from MSR (Mustard Seed Romania) has found it
increasingly difficult to arrange the appropriate permissions for MSR to be
able to accept humanitarian aid from outside the EU. We suspect that when
Brexit happens it may prove even more difficult, effectively impossible, for us
to continue to send relief aid to Romania. Based on what we have seen recently
we still believe there is a need for taking physical aid to the poorest of the
poor in that country.
We very much hope that you will continue to bless us with
your prayers.
In His service
