Prayers - November 1998

ANSWERED PRAYERS

  1. That the architect here in Bucharest is working on getting the P.U.D. approved while we are waiting for a more precise cost estimate from the American company.

  2. Daniel Achim, the 23 year old Christian man who has been diagnosed with lymphoma, a type of cancer, left for Scotland 12 days ago. A Christian Scottish woman offered to pay for all his medical expenses, for the 6 months of initial treatment! The preliminary reports from the cancer specialists there are encouraging.

  3. For good health and unity between us. Linda has had a cold recently, but the Lord has spared her from getting laryngitis, common for her, and so Milt wasn't left with all the medical phone calls.

PRAYER REQUESTS

  1. That we will receive information promptly regarding the estimated cost of the clinic structure which will be brought over from the U.S., and that it will be a reasonable amount.

  2. For the Lord's continued guidance, and opening of doors, as we work with the two architects involved in our project, and that the architect here in Bucharest will be able to obtain all the approvals needed before building can start. Also, guidance regarding the design of the clinic, that we don't overlook any requirements.

  3. That the Lord will bring more donors toward our clinic project. Donations can go either to our Work Fund at World Mission Prayer League, or to our newly established support organization, Open Door Medical Ministries.

  4. For the Lord's continued provision for all our financial needs, including our Support Fund, which is getting low.

  5. Campus Crusade for Christ is interested in buying the second floor of our clinic building and will need financing for this. Obviously, we'd like prayer for success in their fundraising, too.

  6. For Daniel Achim, that he will be completely healed and that the Lord will provide people who can support him emotionally and spiritually while he is away from his family and friends.

  7. That the Traistaru family will receive strength and courage from the Lord to follow through with getting Flori evaluated for possible surgery before Dr. Pesamosca, the best pediatric surgeon here, retires.

  8. For continued safety, unity and good health for us.

  9. That God will raise up more missionaries to work in Romania. That people will realize that God uses ordinary people to accomplish wonderful things in His Name and for His Kingdom.

  10. For the country of Romania: 1) that the leaders of this country will follow the Lord and seek to do His will, and that they will continue to oppose corruption and dishonesty at all levels of the government and society, 2) against the spirits of deception and corruption in this country, 3) for a revival in the church in Romania and for a "Promise Keepers" type revival among the men in Romania.
