Thank you for all your prayers. My mother has been moved to the private care home on Monday. She is adjusting nicely. God has heard our prayers and answered them. We couldn't have done it without you.

I want to thank everybody who texted, prayed, called, and emailed me over the last few days during my gallbladder attack and surgery. I am home recovering and hope to go back to work as soon as possible. Thank you so much. Your prayers and thoughts have been overwhelming. I had amazing care at both hospitals. God is so good. Thank you and God bless.

Courtney Joy and Andrew need our prayers. On Sunday, Courtney Joy started with mild symptoms and their doctor thought it would be wise to be on the safe side and get a Covid test. Unfortunately, she tested positive yesterday and is feeling very sick now. Andrew was tested as well, but it came back negative. Courtney Joy is isolating in the bedroom and Andrew moved to the living room. Fortunately, because Andrew is negative, he can unmask with Malakhi and be close to him. They took all of the recommended precautions, yet Courtney Joy has been hit hard even with being double vaxed.
Please pray for quick healing and that God would protect Malakhi and Andrew from getting it. Ask that the Father would be near and sustain them emotionally as Courtney Joy cannot be close to them for the next 9 days. Pray also for patience and grace for Malakhi and Andrew as Malakhi doesn't enjoy being cooped up in the house for longer than a couple hours at a time.
The dorm girls are set to return on January 3/4 while Courtney Joy and Andrew are still going to be in quarantine. Please pray for wisdom for leadership as they discern how to cover the dorm for them for the first couple of days.

Please pray with me that our son Connor would know Jesus Christ as his Savior and be guided by Jesus in his relationships (He was a camp counselor at Winkler Bible Camp a number of years ago.).
I am very concerned that he is rushing a physically intimate relationship with a "girl" he met at university only one month ago. May Jesus please enter Connor's heart and head and guide him in his actions ( especially as this girl comes back to the university residence on Dec. 30th). As parents, we have not met her as yet and do not know if she is a Christian. May we please feel Jesus's presence in our lives too as we see what infatuation is going on. We pray for our son to please receive more Christian influences in his life at university and in the community. We pray for him to have some more Christian friends. Thanks for praying.

Thank you everyone for your prayers. God has heard and answered them.
We have found a private care home for Bogdan's mother. God worked out all the details. However, his mom has now contracted COVID and must wait till she recovers from it before she can move there. Meanwhile she is still on her own.
Please pray that she will recover so she may move to the care home and also please pray that all details will be worked out for Bogdan's sister's plans as she prepares to travel to Poland.

Hello Everyone!
I want to thank you so much for your prayers and give you an update and ask for more prayer.
-The situation with our church and the government wanting to fine us for not paying into the pension plan of volunteer workers when the sanctuary was built is still unresolved. Please pray that they accept the documents that have been submitted.
I went to get my Covid-19 Vaccine Certificate from Alberta Health, I couldn't access the site from outside the country. I have been in contact with Alberta Health, so please pray I can get this settled before I travel on Monday.
I was able to get my 3rd booster shot for the Covid-19 Vaccine here in Brazil. Please pray the site is fixed so I can print off this certificate for my trip on Monday.
Lastly, please pray I have no problems getting my Covid-19 test results in time for my trip and pray for an uneventful trip to Canada and that they accept all my documents along the way.
Paulo will be travelling to Canada after summer Bible camp season here in Brazil - end of January.
It has been a challenging time to say the least. Thank you so much for carrying us through with your prayers!
Blessings,
Lyndell

Pray for our overseas worker, Priscilla, as she requests prayer to reconnect with two local friends and for the time she had with with a woman she just recently met. Priscilla is encouraged that she has been able to pray with a local lady as well as talk to her about the "word."
Priscilla is also thankful that she has been able to focus on her business-related tasks in the last couple of weeks. This is important as it legitimizes her presence in the country. And lastly, pray that her air conditioning will be fixed shortly as the lack of air conditioning has driven her to sleep at a friends.

Hi Church Family,
Please pray for my Dad, Roger De Zilva in Sri Lanka. His Parkinson’s suddenly got worse and his has declined rapidly.
My Mom and Dad just received the letter to do the Medical for immigration to Canada after many years. But his condition is not favorable at the moment.
He is the reason our family found Jesus and was born again.
Please uplift him in prayer.
Thank you and God bless you.
