Praise & Prayer Requests

PRAISE GOD AND PLEASE PRAY!
Psalm 22:
25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly; before those who fear you will I fulfill my vows.
26 The poor will eat and be satisfied;
they who seek the LORD will praise him—
may your hearts live forever!
27 All the ends of the earth
will remember and turn to the LORD,
and all the families of the nations
will bow down before him,
28 for dominion belongs to the LORD
and he rules over the nations.
29 All the rich of the earth will feast and worship;
all who go down to the dust will kneel before him—
those who cannot keep themselves alive.
30 Posterity will serve him;
future generations will be told about the Lord.
31 They will proclaim his righteousness
to a people yet unborn—
for he has done it.

We know it was God who accomplished all that was done on Saturday at our second food packaging event. There were 103,000 meals packaged by approximately 400 volunteers. Praise God!

“The poor will eat and be satisfied;” and “those who seek the Lord will praise Him”

April 2010 trip to Tanzania - Prayer Request:

1 Thessalonians 5:
24 He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it.
25 Brethren, pray for us.


1) Please pray that the enemy would be bound in the name of Jesus from hindering what God is going to do while Herbert, Emily, Alan and Shannon are together in Tanzania.
2) Please pray for good health for us all and healing for Herbert and Emily. Also, that Alan’s back would be strong throughout the entire trip.
3) Please pray for traveling mercies in the air and on the ground.
4) Please pray that we would all have clarity and God’s anointing as we share God’s word with the people.
5) Please pray that we would express His love to everyone we encounter.
6) Please pray for the people to have understanding and an openness to the Holy Spirit as we share with them; Children groups, church groups, street groups and especially the Muslims in this area (village).
7) Please pray that we would have good interpreters, preferably Godly but that we’d be a light to them if they are not.
8) Please pray for us to be as organized and time efficient as we can be and not worry when that is not happening. (TIA – This is Africa)
9) Please pray that, as God wills, we will have time in Moshi (where we originally began working in Tanzania) and have time to visit our friends there. Please pray that we will see Teddy, Angela and Nema for a good visit. (Young girls)
10) Please pray that God would use us while we are with the group of doctors and nurses from Iowa. Many are not believers. Pray for their salvation as God exposes them to things they have never been exposed to before. Let them know to call out to God almighty.
11) Please pray that God will give us His favor with the government. (Actually all people there)
12) Please pray that we will have honest, sweet and sharpening (as iron sharpens iron) fellowship with Herbert and Emily and that we would leave Tanzania having greater understanding of cultures and each other.
13) Please pray that we would come home knowing Him better and having a clearer vision of what He has for us to do.
14) Please pray for Herbert and Alan to have a kindred spirit and vision for this ministry. Please pray for absolute unity through the Holy Spirit.
15) Please pray for us to be humble, gracious, understanding and loving in every situation.
16) Strength, boldness, courage, discernment, wisdom… What ever God puts on your heart. He knows better than we do what needs to be lifted up in prayer. We will be praying that He will speak to your hearts on our behalf and also that He will bless you as you pray.
17) Pray for the salvation of many and that they would know Him deeply. Pray for the country of Tanzania to experience revival.
18) Pray for strength, boldness, understanding and wisdom for these children who have come to know Him and that God would use them to be a light in their own country for His glory.
19) Please pray for all the financial needs to be met by His grace.
20) Please pray that God would put it in and on the hearts of those who are to get more involved with Africa Harvest of Hope.

In Jesus Name we pray. Amen!

Thank you and may God bless you!
