Dear Prayer Friends,

     Thank you so much for praying for my brother Paul & his wife Rachele.  
God really moved during their visit & they were touched.  On Thursday night, 
they chose to come to church.  We left one another crying and I handed my 
brother a package with a book in it: "Heaven or Hell, your choice" by Bill Bright 
(who's now in Heaven).  Pray they read this book, & believe it.

AFRICA
     My husband just returned from Africa where he preached and met our 
orphans in Burkina Faso for the first time.  He was deeply touched by the poor 
there, and by the children in our orphanage, especially 7-year-old Rodrigue.  Pray 
for the growth of that work, and our other works in Africa.
     Uganda - I'm receiving tons of mails from Uganda soliciting help.  Pray 
I can connect with someone who could check out these needs and see how 
authentic they are, and pray for that country and the many orphans there.  Pray for a 
dear boy Shaga Paul Maheshe, in need of help.  He knows Jesus and really 
needs God to intervene in his life.  He is a refugee from Congo.  Pray for him, 
and others like him (such as Emanuel) who need miracles.

INDIA
     Continue praying for our orphans there and for new works to open up, and 
for a potential visit there this Winter.

FRANCE
     Pray for Jamie (16), Cindy (15) & Kevin (6), children of Karine, a 
single, underprivileged mother.  These children are suffering terribly.  Pray we 
can really minister to them, and help soothe away their hurts & bitterness.
     Continue praying for A.......  Pray also for our Sunday School & our 
Youth Ministry---for the many needy children.

RUSSIA, ALBANIA, ROMANIA, UKRAINE/POLAND
     Nothing new on the front except, but prayer is always needed for each 
area, each work, each orphanage and street child.

ADOPTIONS
     Nothing new about the 28 Moldavan orphans, so keep on praying.

     Thanks again for your prayers and faithfulness.
