Blessings & Prayer Requests

Hello everyone, time flies by so fast and, before we know it, we're always wondering why there's never enough time to do all the things we hope to do in a day/week/year. Keeping updated on the Blog is one of those things that, regrettably , winds up getting put "on hold". Our sincere apologies.
.
Many noteworthy things happen in our personal and ministerial lives that we'd like to share with you as a praise to our Lord. Other things, such as prayer requests, we would like to share with you so you can be with us in bringing those things before the throne. With that, we would also like to be in prayer for any of you who may have praises/requests to share. They could be shared as a comment here on this blog or, if more personal, can be sent to our email address: amofavelas@terra.com.br
.
Just a few of the PRAISES we'd like to share: for the 1000 donated water filters which are being used to evangelize the poor living in the slums- this has been very, very successful in leading people to Christ and also providing them with clean drinking water.....for the temporary guardianship papers coming through for two teenage girls that have been living with us for the past 1 1/2 years.....for the Lord's constant provision for our personal and ministerial needs even when times are tight financially..... for our health and continuing education for our kids.....for our friends/family back home who encourage, pray for, and uplift us before our heavenly Father!
.
Now a few PRAYER REQUESTS: for the temporary guardianship papers to come through for a 6 year old favela girl who's been with us for almost 7 months.....for spiritual growth for our two churches here and for our leaders in the ministry.....for more supporters to help cover the operating expenses of the ministry and personal support.....for our daughter, Jessica, who will graduate college in May 2011 (for direction and for the Lord to clearly show her HIS will for her life)....... We covet your prayers!
.
Blessings,
Pete and Jodi
