Trainer's Prayer Requests

Selamat Paskah! He is Risen!!! Posting two things from yesterday...I was up early this morning for Easter services and now have a little bit of time before the regular service.

So the last post mentioned the trainings in general and briefly how the second training of the year with the volunteer trainers went. I also spent a few minutes with Rahel getting some of their prayer requests so I will post those below – please pray for them and the people in Tolikara. There is also a map which won’t upload to here so I will save it as a picture and post it in my album – those are uploading slowly – so hopefully soon it will be up! There are also a couple videos of the trainer’s giving their prayer requests that I will try to post.
