Time and events have been flying, that's way I missed our Tuesday prayer meetings the past two weeks!

Week before last I woke early to drive the two and a half hours to the airport to pick up Steve. As I pulled into the terminal and saw his face I knew his trip had been great. Praise God! The orphanage in Asia is progressing nicely and the children are growing strong and healthy!

Last Tuesday our internet was down for most of the day. We found out that most of Washington State was out as well, hence, no Tuesday blog.

This Tuesday is no less busy than any other! We will be shipping supplies to Ukraine in the next two weeks and are busy trying to get all the clothes, shoes, and supplies ready to arrive in time to ship out. A local Girl Scout troupe will be having a rush shoe drive for the orphans. I am going to go speak to them tomorrow. While I'm out and about I'll stop by a little home school co-op and speak to them as well. Tomorrow is also our monthly Orphan's Hope prayer meeting!

Meanwhile we are busy sending a couple volunteers to Asia, preparing children's programs for camp, getting ready to send out monthly receipts, working on our international teams for this summer, and keeping up with other things going on.

With all this going on I feel like I need a little especial extra prayer! I'm not necessarily great at any of the tasks on my plate, but if God works through me that's all that matters! Please, pray with me that God will work through all I do and I'd be a useful tool in His service.

Let's pray together:
- For our staff in Asia as they host a conference for orphans.
- For my monthly support
- For more donors for Orphan's Hope
- For God's provision in shipping costs for the upcoming shipment to Ukraine
(It's only $ 0.55 per lb to ship, but it all adds up. If you'd like to help click here!)
- For wisdom as we work to increase funding
- That we'd be useful tools for God's purposes
- That more orphans would come to know Him and see His provision
- For our staff in Asia and Ukraine who actually work with the children every day
