"How can I/we be praying for you?" That's one of our favorite questions to be asked....and one of our favorite questions to ask. In preparation for this past week's community meeting, we asked a few of our managers/leaders that question. Here are their responses....we'd like to invite you to join us in talking and listening to God about these situations.....
Off Ships/Hope Center
- For those in the Off Ship team who are serving outside of the Pointe Noire area -- especially Franck and the Agriculture Team.
- Unity and peace as we work in our department off ship, that the daily pressures will not take away our purpose and passion.
- For perseverance and strength to finish the field service well.... not just finish it but really finish it fantastically!!
- Transitions of Crew and leadership over the summer
- Urgent recruiting needs:
- Head Housekeeper in Crew Services
- Managerial Trainer in Staff Development
- Vehicle breakdowns due to driving conditions - rain, mud, rivers, sand.
- Vehicle damage and crew safety while driving.
- Prayer for the safe arrival & speedy clearance of our new airport commuter bus - due March 11.
- Health of crew and day crew.
- Stability and perseverance of crew and day crew as we finish out the field service.
- Smart and appropriate decisions to be made by our crew and day crew drivers.
- Thank God for the blessing it is to have such a capable fleet of vehicles and team to maintain them.
- Pray for Hannah who graduates High School in May. That God will make a way for her future and what he has planned for her!
- Pray for the families who are leaving the ship, for a smooth transition to new schools, friends and lives in their new homes
- Pray for the New Principal and his family
- Pray for the students and families who will be staying next year, that God will build them up and encourage them during this season of change.
- Pray for new families who are coming, that God will make a way and provide as well and welcome them into our community.
- Praise Point: Full teaching team for next year already approved. Pray that God will continue to provide for them in radical ways.
- good understanding of the patients need / nurses need so they can translate correct
- strength for the coming months to continue their job - some make long hours -it's not easy
- good relationships with the patients/crew and other day crew so we can live and work as one united community
Thank you for joining with us in prayer....what a gift to know that God hears us - and responds! - when we pray. And it's not just when we intentionally "close our eyes and bow our heads" or when we "get down on our knees" (or whatever other posture one may choose) - it's when we whisper His name...or cry out "help, God."...it's when we don't even know the right words to say (cause it's certainly not about having the right words to say). It's any time we invite Him to be involved and present in any thing. Prayer is a gift...a privilege of speaking and listening to the One who cares most and is the source of all power and authority.
How can we be praying for you? Feel free to email us with your response cashcrewship@gmail.com
Surely there will be more to come.
