Updated Requests
We wanted to keep you up to date on prayer requests now that we are actually here, so, as of our first week, here are some new prayer requests:
- That we trust in the Lord through ALL things, no matter how frustrating or difficult.
- That we maintain our daily time with the Lord (quiet times).
- That the Lord helps us to learn the language as quickly as possible.
- That we have boldness to initiate relationships with our neighbors and the shop owners near our apartment.
- That we continue to integrate into the culture of Sarajevo and the culture of the team here.
We cannot thank you enough for your prayers. We need them, and we can FEEL them here, really!
Blessings,
Billy & Jess

Prayers for us…
We have had some of you ask us how you can be praying for us. Well, we will do our best to post prayer requests as often as possible here. Here are some areas you can pray for us (some in preparation for Bosnia and some for right now):
1. For God to give us boldness to share the Gospel.
2. For us to be effective in serving the Lord.
3. For Jess and I maintain communication in our marriage when we are there (we want to make sure that we do not make ministry an excuse to not intentionally make time for one another).
4. For us to be able to learn the language smoothly.
5. For endurance through difficult times.
6. For rich time with the Lord to remain priority.
7. For Jess and I to be fully funded by August 1, 2009.
We will continue to let you know what you can be praying for as needs arise. We love you all and are so blessed to be surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses.
So that all may know the Hope of glory,
Billy and Jess.
