WOP-Day 3


Children are cherished and valued in Yaroslavl, but many suffer from the effects of the poor economy, poverty and abuse. Pray that the younger generation would find Christian role models and find hope, love, peace and forgiveness in Jesus Christ. Pray that the believers would be firm and strong in their faith in school and with their friends and family.

Please pray especially for our children, Gideon and Mary Elizabeth. Even though they have spent the majority of their lives here in Russia, they face many struggles with language and cultural differences. Please pray that they would be strong physically, emotionally and spiritually to overcome the obstacles that "Third Culture" missionary kids face. Pray that Gideon would love school, be a good example for ME and others and not be afraid but be filled with peace and joy. Pray ME would have a kind and generous heart and realize that everything is NOT hers! :-)

Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity. 1 Tim 4:12

Thanks for this wonderful, creative blog! It always brings a smile to my face! I certainly will pray for your kids. Having grown up as an MK myself, I well remember the struggles of being a "third-culture kid."

God bless your day!
