FBF PRAYER REQUESTS..MARCH 2013


FBF PRAYER REQUESTS FOR MARCH 2013

PHILIP AND SANDRA PRIME
1. Pray for our baptismal service on the 3rd of March. We could have 5 or so who would want to be baptized: Lilia and her son Pablo; A young gal Denise; a young man Jesús; another young man also named Jesús; and possibly a few more. Pray that the Lord would help us to give them wise counsel.

2. Please pray for the visa and vehicle situation here in Mexico.
Changes in the Mexican Visa laws are forcing all foreigners who reside (or plan on residing) in Mexico for the long-term, to apply for residency.  The new law is forcing us to either legalize (import) our van or sell it in the US and buy a Mexican one.
I have been told by two different agencies (non-government) that deal with the importation of vehicles that it is not possible to import the Bookmobile. I am still waiting on one other agency to finish their investigation into the matter.

MARTIN AND HANSY TUOHY
1. The vehicle we have been using needs new license plates to remain legal. There has been many delays in getting them. Please pray we are able to get them by the end of this week.
2. Till Easter camps we have will be traveling quite a bit on the weekends, visiting other churches here in MX. Please pray for travel mercies and ability to minister well to each of the churches.
3. Wisdom is needed as we prepare to pack up here in Puruandiro. Are we packing for good or just so that we can return once we have tied up loose ends in Denmark?
4. Salvation of young family whom we are studying with.I beg your prayers for my oldest sister, Carmen (the mother of Kena). Thursday of last week, 5:30 am, she fainted, felt from the second floor, hit a pot with her head, destroyed one of her knees, and God graciously spared her life! 
 
MONICA SERNATINGER AND QUICO
I beg your prayers for my oldest sister, Carmen (the mother of Kena). Thursday of last week, 5:30 am, she fainted, felt from the second floor, hit a pot with her head, destroyed one of her knees, and God graciously spared her life!
    She got stiches in her head, and last Friday had knee surgery. This week Quico and I spent a few days in Celaya helping care for her. She is doing well and her pains have resided greatly, and she told us repeatedly to have felt so loved by us.  I am still very concerned about her salvation. She is a very devout Catholic who confesses to have put her trust in Christ as her Savior, and that if she would have died, she is sure she would spent eternity in heaven; but also she will forever trust in the intercession on the Virgin Mary for her daily walk and eternity. I left some literature with her and she says to daily read Our Daily Bread devotional. May the Lord give her true understanding of Christ amazing and sufficient grace.
    My health and energy have been so much better. Thank you for your faithful prayers!!!

DENNY NORRIS
We are so grateful for how God is working among the youth in Cannon Beach. Each week we are meeting in the home of one of the church families (we usually fill up the host’s home) as we study through the gospel of John. Besides the Bible study, we recite memory verses, report on Bible reading, pray, have a question and answer time and eat a snack. There is an enthusiasm among them that is contagious… and the families in the church feel blessed to host them. They also have a passion for their lost friends and relatives.
Thanks so much for praying for the quinceañera celebration; the name of Christ was both exalted and proclaimed. Both the fifteen old year girl and her father gave their testimonies.
