Highlights.
- I am camping on the beach in Kauai right now. What started as a time of prayer and fasting is just prayer now ;)
- School starts Aug 19! We are ready to go. We have our all area prayer day next Friday. I have all my welcome packets ready to give away at Istudent Orientation. The Istudents who went home for the summer return in 2 weeks. The Welcome Dinner at my house is planned. A couple new students have already looked at and 'liked' our FLC FB page.
- As mentioned last month, I finished the 7 Spheres of Influence site for ISI so all Campus Staff across the US can use it with our M28 students this year.
- Our club president at FLC called me. She told me the dean, and the head of the student clubs, had contacted her. She said they really want us to bring back our club to RCC. If you recall, I pulled out of there when the ESL teacher and I had a disagreement about ISI requirements for leadership in our club.The dean even stated he would pay for the pizzas each week and would put out flowers on our table when they do the kickoff for the clubs next month! Seems like a miracle to me!
- Jane's relationship with Zoey* keeps growing. Jane cut her hair a couple weeks ago and it is obvious from their conversation that their friendship is on a much deeper level. Zoey* is Muslim.
Lowlights.
- I took Shawn* to take his DMV driving test and he did not pass :(
- I am writing my monthly newsletter right now instead of snorkeling ;)
Story 1
No student story this month.
Prayer Requests
- This is the new prayer for Megan*. Continue to pray for heart that she would open the door to Jesus. She knows enough now. Pray for her son Shawn*. He is also learning a lot about Christ and seems to like what he is hearing! He is getting close. Pray for Megan*s husband! He finally has been approved to come to the US. I expect him to join his wife and son as they all go to church and learn more and more about Jesus. Maybe the whole family will accept Christ at the same time :) He also will need a job in the US. He is an engineer and it would be great if he could stay in the area or get in a company with other Christians. <<Ongoing. Drop the other 2 Megan* requests next month>>
- As mentioned above, pray for the ~28 ISI staff doing Returnee Visits to >10 countries this summer. <<Ongoing>>
- God would prepare the hearts of the new students that will come to us in the Fall! <<Ongoing>>
- Pray that my technical work will not be an end in itself but will translate directly into building up the kingdom of God. I see it much like this present day parable. <<Ongoing. So far it is going great and appreciated by the staff>>
- For Ana* and Zoey*. Like Megan* that God would start drawing them to Himself and making them aware of their need for Him. They are both great friends with Megan*. That perhaps Megans* seeking will inspire them to seek also. <<Ongoing>> <<Zoey* and Jane continue to be better friends :). Ana* has dropped out, I believe :( >>
Admonition
Now when the attendant of the man of God had risen early and gone out, behold, an army with horses and chariots was circling the city. And his servant said to him, “Alas, my master! What shall we do?” So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” - 2 Kings 6:15,16
