April/May 2007 Prayer Letter

Dear Prayer Partners,

         We thank the Lord for His goodness and kindness to us. He has prospered us in so many ways. How wonderfully the psalmist states it in Psalm 100:5, “For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.” The Lord has been good and merciful to us, and it is our job to take the wonderful truth of the Gospel to the uttermost parts of the earth.

         Thank you for your prayers for Sara while she was finishing up her college work. Graduation was on Monday, May 7th, and everything went smoothly. Sara is happy to now be a “college graduate.” Praise the Lord for the things that she will be able to take out of the classroom for use on the mission field.

        We are thankful to report that 2 new churches have taken us on for support this past month. Our support level stands at 60%. Please pray that the Lord would help us to be able to fill in our schedule for the remainder of the year and that He would bring in our support in His perfect timing.

        With much excitement we would like to share with you that Sara is expecting our first child! She is due on September 9th, and the doctor tells us that it is a baby boy. We are so happy that God has blessed us in this way. Please pray for the health of Sara and the baby as we travel and that the Lord would give us a safe delivery.

        It is the desire of our hearts to get to the country of Perú as soon as possible. For this reason, we are asking you to pray that the Lord would supply us with 35 more supporting churches and individuals this year. We serve a wonderful God who hears and answers prayers, and we are believing Him for great things.

Your Servants for Him,

Robert and Sara Stover
