Orphans First prayer requests – May 6th, 05 Dear Praying Friends, Praise reports, prayer requests and personal info. to share with you. Thanks for caring and praying for the children. ADOPTIONS From Alan & Susan adopting Mihail & Gheorge from Moldova – “Janey: We got word today! Our court date is Tue. Or Wed. on third week of May. We leave USA prob May 21. HALLELUJAH! What a great early Mothers Day gift. Just need to sell that van and fast - pls pray the Lord raises up a buyer this weekend - we need the liquidity to travel!” Let’s pray they get ALL THE NEEDED MONEY & that all the other details fall into place SMOOTHLY so they get their boys home soon. There is a couple pursuing adopting Nikita (oh, please God, yes). Pray he gets to the States this summer, and that the adoption happens quickly. Pray also for a family in Missiouri adopting sisters Irina & Tatyana from Russia, hoping for completion of their adoption this summer. Pray for the couple in Huntington Beach adopting baby Beatrice from Haiti. Pray for the Snajders in Poland adopting the 3 Ukrainian children supported by OF. Pray that they could either move to the UK or find another way to better provide for their family, and that the adoption would happen fast. ***Pray for the world’s orphans needing parents—especially older ones--specifically that Christians would adopt them, and that God would intervene on their behalf quickly. *** If you live in Southern California, and are interested in hosting or adopting a child, contact International Christian Adoptions - 1 888 507 9607. OF ORPHANAGES & CHILDEN’S HOMES--INDIA, AFRICA, EUROPE & HAITI Please continue praying for all of our orphanages. The greatest, present need includes the orphanage in Haiti—needing more support in order to adequately feed our 42 children there. STREET CHILDREN Pray for Alexandra and the Tadzik children we support in Moscow, Russia—for a better means to help her, and for her to provide us with more information. Pray for Pam, & the children in state orphanages in Almaty, Kazakhstan— particularly for the older orphans leaving the orphanages this May. We had hoped to provide $ 50 each for about 50 children. However, with present finances, and recent difficulties in administrative details, without a massive miracle, this will not happen. O.F. ADMINISTRATION glitches, EXPANSION and MARKETING details. **Thanks to giving Christians (Jo, Pearl, Marlene), the OF brochure is complete. Pray we can have this brochure printed and sent out to a writer’s conference I will be attending in Colorado next week. Pray for the kind folks printing this brochure. **Many thanks also to a dear friend, Pastor John, who has and is working on revamping the O.F. website. Check it out. **Pray for the Writer’s conference I’ll be attending—that it may somehow be of benefit to the needy children in the world as I represent O.F. **Pray for O.F.’s future—that God would show me what is needed to remove the glitches in the system for the infrastructure to run more smoothly. (We have recently had computer problems and other details that have held us up in sending out the OF sponsors’ newsletter on time. This in turn holds up finances as this newsletter serves to remind sponsors it’s time to send their gift). **Pray I am led in God’s will in detail for O.F. and that I hear the Shepherd ’s voice clearly.
