| | Dear fellow brothers and sisters and friends,
REQUEST to Be On Your Knees for:
Nick has decided to request to transfer to China officially next year and ELIC is going to place him in Wuhu, on my team for next year!! At the end of April, we will find out if my school will accept the list of teachers ELIC has given to them. Please LIFT UP that they would accept Nick as a teacher here in Wuhu!! With marriage as something we are thinking seriously about, we really have peace asking to be on the same team together to serve and work alongside each other. We are anticipating the end of April when we OFFICIALLY hear from our school about next year (ELIC is ok with us being on the same team….we have to wait to see if our school will accommodate). I have peace about it, that it will work out like we hoped for, but I am definitely still anxious. This would be a significant thing for our relationship, as we would finally be together in the same space and NOT long distance anymore. Long distance has been good for us (as good as long distance can be), but we are definitely ready to be in the same place together! Nick and I truly appreciate your thoughts heavenward on this one.
In general for next year, please be lifting up decision in China as a whole because April is decision-making month, where ELIC places teachers and where schools determine what teachers they want, etc. May His will be done! ELIC’s presence in China is powerful and the Father has blessed ELIC for years and years; may He continue to guide and direct next year.
In Other News:
TEAM: Tre, a teammate, has been having knee pain and may have to get surgery on it. She may have to go back to America early to get treated for her knee. NOTHING is sure right now, so please be lifting up her knee and her doctors’ because we are all waiting for some news and direction. It’s hard to be in the dark about your own physical condition. Lift up Tre, and direction in this area.
SCHOOL: 3 more weeks of teaching seniors and juniors. Then, they leave to go find jobs and do student teaching, respectively. It’s gonna be a busy three week!
VISITS: There will be a lot of friends and family visiting beginning in May. My mom is coming the last week of April and other teammates have friends and family coming to visit in May and June! Nick will be coming sometime in June after he finishes his classes, so that’s all very exciting.
PR life: I continue to seek the Father by listening to Him. May I have discipline when times get busy. May I have courage to ask for things honestly. May I have courage to ask Father to show me areas of sin that I am blind to. May I have patience to wait for Him; to be strong and take heart and wait for Him (Psalm 27). Amen.
Thanks for being on a team with me. How are you doing, by the way? I haven’t heard from a lot of you in awhile. Drop me a quick note when you have a chance. I’d love to be PR-ing for you.
Love,
Lydia
