PRAYER REQUESTS
- That the remainder of the work will be finished promptly, including
finishing the electrical work, testing the heating system, replacing the
hallway doors, putting in the sidewalks around the building, etc.
- That we will have no problem getting the donated computers through
customs.
- For God to continue to lead people to donate to our clinic project.
Donations toward the clinic are best given to Open Door Medical Ministries,
C/O Clifford Olson, 9210 Science Center Drive, New Hope, MN 55428. For
donations to our Work Fund, Support Fund, Travel Fund and Personal Gift Fund,
they still should go to World Mission Prayer League, 232 Clifton Ave.,
Minneapolis, MN 55403, specifying to which fund you wish to give. (WMPL
prefers not to duplicate the work of ODMM.)
- For continued protection of the clinic against theft or damage.
- For us to have the time and energy to be able to do the rest of the work,
with the help of our friends. Also, for wisdom as we interview potential
employees.
- For continued good health, safety and unity.
- For BEL Fellowship, our English language church--that the Lord will
provide a full-time pastor.
- For the ICC orphanage children--for adoptive parents for the children or
that their own parents will take them home and love them and care for them.
We haven't been out there yet, and don't know when we'll have time to start
going again.
- That God will raise up more missionaries to work with us in Romania. We
need people with medical training, clinic organization and management skills,
Christian counseling and evangelism skills as well as other skills.
- For the country of Romania: 1) that the leaders and the people will
rediscover the meaning of integrity, 2) against the spirits of deception,
self-deception and corruption that are so dominant in this country, and 3)
for a revival in the church in Romania, especially among the men, for their
hearts and their minds.
