Team Meeting! (And only 25 days to go…) Posted about ago

Hi Everyone!

Thank you so much for the generous support you’ve offered, as well as for all of your prayers for our team as we continue to prepare for the trip. We had our second team meeting last night, which was an incredibly encouraging time. One of our team members is Kurdish, and he and his family graciously hosted us for a fabulous Kurdish meal and the chance to learn a bit more about the Kurdish culture. Our team has grown a bit since our last meeting – we’re now up to 9 (6 men/3 ladies) – so it was great to meet the rest of the team and spend time praying together. I’ll try to attach a picture of the group that gathered for dinner at the end of the post (it includes the team plus some other folks).

I’m so thankful for your continued prayers, and I can also share a few prayer updates. The political situation has remained stable in the Soran region. That’s a blessing and something to continue to pray for, as this will allow our team to travel freely while we’re there. We also learned that a severe wind storm swept through the region this past Saturday evening, damaging many of the refugees’ tents. As tents are their only shelter for the winter, this is a big concern. Please pray for provision to repair or replace the tents before winter, or that God would offer another solution for these families. Depending on the status of the repairs when we arrive, we may shift our work to help with these efforts.

Much peace,
- Andy
