Prayer Requests

We'd like to ask you to pray for Owen. Two days ago he and a school friend spent the afternoon playing together, and yesterday they both became ill with high fevers. The pre-school then called to inform us that two students in the friend's class had been diagnosed with the H1N1 flu virus, so there is a good possibility that both boys were exposed and this may be the result. We've been advised to treat him at home with lots of rest and fluids, which is what we are doing. Please pray that he will recover quickly and that the rest of the family will stay healthy, as we have a busy week ahead - which leads us to our second prayer request. Starting Monday, we will be hosting a group of 10 seminary students from Santiago who will be leading an evangelistic campaign to support our new church plant in Alto Hospicio. Pedro has been in charge of coordinating this effort and is still finalizing details of housing, meals, etc. for the students with the help of our Iquique church members. Please pray for all the details to come together and most importantly, for the Gospel to reach the hearts of many men, women and children in Hospicio.

We will be praying that Owen will recover quickly and that none of the rest of you will get it!
