November/December 2009 Prayer Letter
Dear Pastors and Praying Friends,
Glory to God for His
Unspeakable Gift!
Luke 2:11 says, “For unto you is born this
day in the city of David a Saviour, which is
Christ the Lord.” Thank the Lord for the
birth of the Lord Jesus Christ! The most amazing
thing about His birth was that He was born to
die. Glory to God for this unspeakable gift
given to us on that first Christmas! Because of
this, others can be born into the family of God.
What an wonderful message to share with others,
not only at Christmas, but all year round.
CHURCH UPDATE
It’s hard to believe that another year has
passed and we’re about to celebrate our second
Christmas here in Peru. We’ve now been working
in the Omega Baptist Church for nearly 6 months.
God continues to bless with new people added to
the church. I’ve had the opportunity to preach
several times. We’ve seen three precious souls
saved in the past few weeks! Glory to God!
Please pray as we prepare to start English
classes in the church on January 12. This has
been a tremendous outreach in the past through
which many have trusted Christ as Savior. Please
also pray as we prepare to begin a Sunday School
program in the church. I will be working with
Hermano Walter to teach the adult class. Sara
will be working with the preschoolers.
Prayer Requests:
-
Pray
for the Lord’s leading in the lives of the
12 students who graduated from the Macedonia
Baptist College on December 4th.
-
Pray
for our trip to Ilo, December 18-20, to
preach for Pastor Samuel Huaman at the
Peniel Baptist Church. Please pray for safe
travel and that God would work in the hearts of the people there. I will have the
opportunity to preach and teach 5 times
while we are there.
-
Pastor’s Retreat, December 28-30 in Ilo
-
Please
continue to pray for the annual Ladies
Conference, January 12-15. Pray for many
ladies to be able to attend and for the Lord
to work in their hearts during this time.
 We
appreciate the special cards and Christmas gifts
that we’ve received. Josiah especially likes
looking through the colorful cards.
Thank you for remembering our family during this
Christmas season. May the Lord richly bless you
and your family!
Anticipating great things for this coming year,
Robert, Sara, Josiah & Caleb Stover |
