Prayer Points – Paul and Lyndal
Eurasia – 26 February 10

Dear Friend,

We’ve been deeply encouraged by the response we received from our last letter. It has been difficult coming to terms with the decision not to return to minister in Eurasia, but the many messages of love and support we’ve received are a great help to us. Thank God for the fellowship of believers that binds us together.

We mentioned in our last email that we were planning to return to Eurasia in March or April. Since then we realised that it would be wiser to get over there sooner, so this Thursday we are flying out! Only Lyndal, Ebony and I are going to pack-up and say farewell to our friends. The boys will be staying with grandparents for the time we’re away. Lyndal and Ebony will be staying until 14 March and I will return to Australia on 26 March.

We would be greatly thankful if you could remember the following prayer points:

  • Pray we’ll travel safely.
  • Pray that the boys will be settled and generally OK while we’re away and pray that their grandparents will have the energy to survive 2 ½ weeks.
  • Pray we’ll have good farewells with our friends in Eurasia, and that we will be able to be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.
  • Pray that packing and selling up of our belongings will go smoothly.

Thanks again for your prayers. God bless,

Paul (and Lyndal).

PS. The photo should give you an idea of the weather we’re heading to.

    NEWS FROM CHILE

    Dear Friends,

    Thank you for your prayers for Chile and its people over these last days. You will be aware that CMS has a number of missionaries working in Chile. They are all safe and well, but along with all those in the quake zone are coping with the trauma of the event and the ongoing after-shocks. They are all now back in their own homes, though they may not all have full communication and other services available to them. As you pray for Chile please remember these missionaries, their Christians brothers and sisters, Bishop Tito Zavala and the Chilean church.

    The CMS missionaries currently in Chile are:
    Santiago
    Michael and Jo Charles, Samuel, Caleb, Emma and Lola,
    Stephen and Rebecca Shead, Benjamin, Lachlan, Tristan and Liliana,
    Frances Cook
    Lesley Doy

    Antofagasta
    Bruce and Bron Hallyburton, Elizabeth, Alexandra and Catherine

    Vina del Mar (near Santiago)
    Pato and Dagma Oyarzun, Rocio, Estela and Trinidad (interNATIONAL Ministry Partners)

    Tim and Sally Swan, Lachlan, Annabelle, Edward, Adelaide (normally based in Santiago)
    Graeme and Jane Peters, Benjamin, Samuel, Martin (on final home assignment, but previously based in Concepción, which is near the epicentre of the earthquake)

    We have received some email prayer letters from the missionaries in Chile, and from some members of Graeme & Jane Peters congregation and we have attached them for your information and prayer.
