Andy and Gina Templeton Just another weblog 
Dear praying friends,
Life can sometimes be like a canoe trip down a river. There are times that are calm as you drift lazily along. Sometimes you can see or hear rapids up ahead and you tense a little as you begin to imagine what may lay in store for you around the bend. There are still other times when you are caught in the grip of the rapids. During these times it seems that all you can do is concentrate on the moment at hand and try to make your way safely through the obstacles.
As we continue through our year of home assignments we seem to be facing a variety of obstacles and challenges. We know that all of these serve the purpose of directing our vision toward Christ and away from ourselves. Thank you for praying with us and for us through these times.
Here are some of the areas that you can praying about on our behalf.
1. Gina has a herniated disk in her lower back. We will be meeting with the spinal specialist on November 12 to determine what we should. Please pray that we can get this resolved and that Gina will no longer have to live in pain.
2. Please pray that our boys will be an effective witness in the public schools. It is easy to get discouraged when they are surrounded by bad language and immorality. We trust that their faith will become more real to them over the course of this year.
3. Please pray for us as we continue to trust the Lord to raise up additional financial and prayer partners prior to leaving for Thailand in July. We praise the Lord for the individuals who have already expressed an interest in getting involved in the ministry of MK discipleship. We are in the process of contacting local churches and asking for an opportunity to share this ministry with them.
Thanks for praying for us. You are an extremely important part of our lives and the ministry we are involved in.
