leadership issues

We are on the cusp of some great new Kingdom expansion items again. In the past week, a new site that has potential to reach a lot of people became available, like a gift out of heaven! Justin and Suzi Mazlanka from Pittsburgh City Outreach, feel like they have received a call from God to come to Hanover and start a church as well as help with our Freedom House!

God has really set us up here with a great position to start something exciting and new, a somewhat different from our usual fare. The usual part it that it is risky, and out there on the edge, but it feels like a God thing! Please pray for wisdom as I travel to Pittsburgh today to work through it a bit more.

On a personal note, I am asking God for personal financial blessing again to be able to give far more and continue to live a generous life. God is good to me, but He told me to ask!

I am also asking for my daughter Shawna's oral surgery to be healed up (she in recovery pain today) from the wisdom tooth extraction that occurred Monday, and for Evan's basketball skills to be blessed. For Luke to get a good Summer job, and Candace and Aaron to heal from some personal wounding due to efforts to make a difference in a friend's life.

great choices to make

Today I feel so in need of grace to decide what I should do next. I have so many great options, so many important things to do, that I often feel very frozen in figuring out which ones should be done NOW.

I'm sure I'm not alone in that. You probably struggle with it too.

And I'm glad that I do have this struggle. It's a good challenge to have. I like being busy and feeling productive.

But if you should choose to spend your valuable time praying for me, I would appreciate prayer for guidance that I would do the most important things, and let the rest go.

Other needs: a van/car for Freedom House, clients for Freedom House, a Children's Pastor for Freedom Valley, and souls- many new disciples being made for the glory of God.
