January 2009 Prayer Requests!

(Click on pictures to enlarge them!)

#1 During the summer of 2009 we need to replace a 60′ X 14′ wooden retaining wall that prevents the septic tank from sliding into the pond.Back of the house, the wall at the side of the septic system. This project is urgent and initial estimates put the final cost at around $12,000. This wall is at the side of the septic system! We have to repair it soon.We will be using concrete and retaining wall blocks that will make the wall permanent. We are also asking the Lord to send us volunteers to help with this heavy work!

Wow! That’s a big request. Not long after we began working on a permit to start this project…

#2 …we were hit hard by a flash flood which did a lot of damage to the dam Ontario`s biggest mid-winter in 58 years caused this weakening and collapse of the dam at the end of the pond.at the west end of the pond (in December of 2008).Flood waters almost overflow the upper bridge by the house. Before restoring the pond to its pre-flood condition we will need to repair the dam and fill in the berm that was washed away.Washed out berm next to the collapsed dam. Hopefully this project can also be completed during the summer of 2009.

#3 We are trusting the Lord for a piece of equipment (backhoe) backhoe2that will assist us in being time efficient with development and maintenance demands here at Still Waters (snow removal, landscaping, pond and trail maintenance, etc.) Something mid-sized and used (but not worn out) would cost around $25,000.

#4 Leah and I are going to be on the suitcaseroad from January 30 till the first week of April visiting family, supporters, and churches – church 22we’d appreciate your prayers for our travels, and that God would raise up new partners in the stead of those who have experienced changes in their finances, and also those who have gone to be with the Lord. Our prayer is that we will be a blessing, and bring glory and honor to God during our long journey.

#5 Our Headquarters has recently provided us with an updated recommended minimum monthly support amount. Currently, our monthly deficit is $1730 USD.
