Dear Friends and Family,
Wow only 5 months until we depart for Indonesia. Every day we think of something else we need to buy, pack or put on a list for our first term in Indonesia-so much to do.
We continue to speak in churches and meet with friends and I must say God has used so many of you to encourage us. Thank you. A week ago we got a letter of encouragement from a ladies group in Montana, and another letter from someone just sharing what was happening in their life. Thank you. That meant the world to us and gave us ways we could pray. Our support level is still around 70% of what we need to depart for Indonesia. We thank God for each of you who support us and pray for us. We appreciate you all.
Nathan is leaving for Oklahoma in March for a 2 week maintenance course on turbine engines. He will be at Covington aircraft engines just south of Tulsa. They are a Christian run aircraft repair facility that is offering free training to any NTMA personnel. The Wilson’s have offered their trailer as a place for him to stay while he is there, so he only needs to pay for food, gas and transportation to and from the course. What a huge blessing. He will also go to California in April for another maintenance course but this time he will be working on helicopters. We are so thankful he has the opportunity to get this additional maintenance training which is needed on the field to help the spread of the gospel to the unreached people of Indonesia. Thank you God!!
Here are a few prayer requests we would ask you to lift up for us:
1. Pray for the raising up of dedicated prayer partners. People who will lift us up and pray for this journey of obedience to God.
2. Pray for more financial partners. People who will join us in taking the good news to Indonesia. We can’t do it without partners.
3. Pray for our packing. So many decisions of what to take, what not to take. Packing for 4 years at a time is a huge challenge.
4. Pray for our little van. It is in need of repairs and is feeling all those miles we have put on it in the last 3 years.
5. Pray for Nathan’s maintenance training in March and also in April. Pray that God would prepare him for what is needed in Indonesia.
6. Pray for the meeting of our travel expenses to Indonesia. We are overwhelmed at times with the cost of airfares, shipping and visas. Pray God would calm our hearts and keep the focus on HIM and HIS purposes.
Thank you for the part you are playing. Write us if you get the chance and let us know how you are and what is happening in your life.
In service together,
Nathan, LaNada, Alaiyah and Anikah Tag
