Praying

Prayer and Praise:

bullet. . .  Thank the Lord for the safe arrival of the Muskrats' shipment from Argentina. Pray that they will have patience as they continue unpacking and organizing their house. Also, thank the Lord for recent contacts with their neighbors who are Christians. Pray that together they can be salt and light for their neighborhood. Please continue to pray as they search for a new church home and place of service.

bullet. . . Please pray for Nancy and her family in the recent death (October 2) of her maternal grandmother, Christine Hardy. She was 96 years old and a fine Christian woman. Pray for the family as preparations are being made for the funeral on Saturday, October 7, for the Muskrats' and their children's participation in the service, and for all those traveling to attend the funeral.

bullet. . . Continue to pray for future decisions regarding a new location for BHCTI in the Arlington area. One possibility did not materialize, so the staff is searching for another property with the confidence that the Lord has the best location for the institution's needs.

bullet. . . Please pray for the family of Julio Cáceres who went to be with the Lord on September 19 after a long battle with cancer. He had worked with Bruce in the Argentina Baptist Mission office.

"And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, 
so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ . . ." Col. 4:3
