Philippians 2: 1-2 "If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose."

We meditated on these verses during our English-speaking small group this past Monday night. How important it is to be like-minded, have the same love, and be one in spirit and purpose when serving the Lord Jesus. It is our prayer that our lives and ministry reflect these verses. 

Here are some prayer requests for us at this time:

• We resume our language studies on Monday. As we have mentioned before this school's program is more intensive than our previous school. We have been told to expect in addition to having 3 hours of class a day,  having 3-5 additional hours of homework per day. So, please pray for clear understanding and good time management as we balance language study and ministry.

• This Sunday we will be attending a day outing for the co-workers and Seekers planning to attend the next season of our Bilingual Alpha Course. Pray for good weather and that deep relationships can begin forming!
