Dear Prayer Partners,

Oh, magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together (Psalm 34:3, ESV)!

Greetings from Senegal! Our family is in Dakar the capital of Senegal. We are preparing to leave for our stateside assignment (furlough). We are very excited to have the opportunity to reconnect with our family and friends, but at the same time there is so much work that needs to be done. We are so grateful for our partnership with you. We know that you will continue to pray for the Mandinka people.

Please pray for Kimberly as she continues working in villages and compounds in and around Sedhiou. Pray for her as she makes adjustments to living part time in another city with new supervisors.

Please pray for the Chronological Bible stories to reach many people each Wednesday evening.

Please pray for safe travel for our family and our reunions with family and friends.

Your sister Christ,

Scriptures:

July 01-05: For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another (Galatians 5:13, ESV).

July 06-12: I will return again to my place, until they acknowledge their guilt and seek my face, and in their distress earnestly seek me (Hosea 5:15, ESV).

July 13-19: And other seeds fell into good soil and produced grain, growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and sixtyfold and a hundredfold (Mark 4:8, ESV)."

July 20-26: Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law (Psalm 119:18, ESV).

July 27-31: I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear me forever, for their own good and the good of their children after them (Jeremiah 32:39, ESV).
