Praise:

For the opportunity Mary and I had of sharing in the pastors retreat sponsored by Woodside Bible Church..
For the additional finances that God has raised up for our South American Director, Wick Jackson. This has been a great encouragement and will enable him to have an even greater ministry this year.
For the new contacts God is giving us for ministry in 2009.

Prayer:

For for our Central American Director, Ismael Miranda’s mother (Cecila) who is recovering from the removal of one of her kidneys.
For wisdom as we seek to reschedule our February ministries to later in the year so Ismael can help in caring for his mother during the time of recuperation.
For wisdom as I use this month to work on a book on world missions and the local church that will be of a help to our national pastors.
