This page will be updated as I receive
prayer request with needs you can personally meet. Met needs
will be posted in bold.
Let there be balance in your faith walk. You
must marry reading (2 Timothy 2:15) the word of God to hearing
(Romans 10:17) the word of God. Marry your prayers (I
Thessalonians 5:17) to actions (James 1:22). Marry ministries at
home (1 Timothy 5:4) to ministries abroad (Acts 1:8). Marry
personal ministry to corporate ministry (Acts 2:42-47).
Needs for March 2010 India mission trip:

BIBLES: The cheapest bibles cost $3.75 in
Pakistan and are greatly needed. Please contact Pastor Nadeem to
send funds to purchase bibles to distribute.
These three little girls have
no mom and their dad works at night trying to earn a living to
care for the girls. They do not attend school because they is no
money and they need food and clothing. The oldest girl has been
caring for the two smaller ones since their mom died of TB two
and a half years ago. She cared for her mom until mom died and
has been carrying around the littlest one on her back for the
last 2 1/2 years. They live in Lilongwe, Malawi and Pastor
Stewart is hoping to build an orphanage where as he and his wife
can care for the girls.
The girls need clothes, food and school fees
paid. Please contact Pastor Stewart if you are able to help the
girls.

UPDATE 8/26/09: Chisomo
has been accepted into a bible college as no fund came available
for her to go to nursing school. if you can help please contact
Pastor Stewart Chawinga.stewartchawinga@yahoo.com
You can also assist Chisomo
with school fees for nursing school $2000. Chisomo's high school
fees were paid by Pastor Stewart and his wife. She has been sent
back to the village as they can not afford to pay for nursing
school. If Chisomo stays too long in the village she may end up
getting married for lack of anything else to do. This would be a
tragedy for her life, married in the village with many children
on the way. Give Chisomo a chance to change her life and that of
her village. Contact Pastor Stewart as noted above.
Praise the Lord! This need was met by

Alpha and Omega
Ministries of PakistanPosted 2/16/09 - I
received information about one small building for my "Catch the
Wave School of Skills and Art." We can hire a school for $1100
for 5 years with no monthly rent. On the hand hand for a small
building we need $500 and $160 per month rent. I have found as
second best opportunity. Please pray for this and If this
building offer is from God, then certainly God will raise
someone for this, otherwise we will go to another option for the
school building. There is one more option for own land for
school with $200 per month installment in Eden land. you can
learn more from
http://www.edenhousing.com.pk/Home.htm But there is time for everything and this is just our
current prayer request for "Catch the Wave School of Skills and
Art"

were exhausted and I was dipping way into my May budget which
would normally go toward my next mission trip. God will provide.
Since returning home I have been bless with donated clothes to
replace the ones I left and two others have seeded into me $80
