Prayer Requests

I have a couple of prayer requests that I would like to share with you:
-Please be praying that we will find another intern to take my place when I head home in August. We are searching and trying to find someone willing and able to come to Germany and work here in Hildesheim. If you know of anyone, please let me know!
-I have started the process of communicating with Scharnhortz Gymnasium to see if I can help their English classes. Please pray that any official papers, visas or requirements that are needed for this job will be able to completed in a timely manner and won't set back any plans. It is my prayer that I can be a positive influence on the students at this school.
-One of my fellow classmates in my language school has mentioned interest in coming to one of our worship services. Pray that she and her husband will indeed come to a service and that they will see Christ us.
-Continue to pray for me as I am on the mission field even in my apartment. Pray that I will be a shining light to my roommates Inga, Lena D. and Lena F.

Thanks for your prayers!

Happy New Years!

Welcome to 2008! I hope that the year is off to a great start for all you bloggers out there. I am back in Hildesheim after my 4 week trip to the States. I was blessed to be able to spend time with my family for Christmas and attend NCYM, a conference for youth ministers which was held in Atlanta.

Jet lag is still of the essence for me, but I hope to recover from it quickly. This week is already getting busy! The apartment is in dire need of cleaning, and I'm meeting with the Bratchers and Roehrkasses tomorrow for breakfast to discuss ideas and catch up on things that I've missed out on. The pre-teen group is having a game night on Friday, and I meeting with Alfred for lunch. Please continue to pray that I might show Christ to Alfred. I'm excited for what God has planned for me here in Germany for the next 8 months!
