Dear Prayer Partners
As I had mentioned in our last Prayer letter we were headed to Liberia to help get Bible Clubs established there. 4 days of intense training for leaders, visits to 8 different churches to get the Clubs going and hundreds of Liberian kids that we had a chance to have fun with and hopefully have an impact on their lives through the Word of God and their leaders. The first photo is Peter, who said the training was so good he was going to “make it part of his DNA”. The second is Esther who has been working with kids for a number of years and has found nothing like what we offer in training and materials. She said Liberia desperately needs Word of Life. The last is of Meredith leading the kids in some fun music at one of the churches we were in. With such a successful trip; having 8 Bible Clubs on ground and a Liberian clubs coordinator in place it is easy to say the Lord has answered prayer.
However I need to ask for more. This morning as Stephen Bahago, Meredith and I went to the airport to return to Nigeria, we learned that the airline we used to get here has canceled all of their flights in and out of Liberia until further notice because of the Ebola outbreak. Word of Life has made funds available to use to try and get other tickets and to make sure our physical needs are met as well as mobilizing prayer warriors. The specific things we would ask from you is to PRAY:
· The funds sent by WOL would be available in the morning
· We can get tickets on another airline
· We make careful and wise decisions in whatever we do
· We have been careful to avoid the areas where the outbreak is prevalent & need to continue using great care in everyone we come in contact with at this point.
· Try to learn what we may encounter upon arrival in Lagos Nigeria, concerning testing and quarantine before we leave Liberia, hoping to avoid a worse situation.
· Most of all pray for the people of Liberia to accept the reality of Ebola and take all the necessary precautions to stop its spread.
