Give God the Small Things

Hello, everyone!

Just a quick note to report that my visa for the Russian Federation arrived in the mail today! Woo-hoo! So I am thanking God that it came with plenty of time to spare.
Thanks to all of you who were praying.

One more thing ... I will be leading worship this Saturday (Feb. 4) for the Women's Aglow meeting here in Brighton. Please pray that God will use me for His glory and we will be drawn into His presence. Thank you.

Blessings to all!
...Sandy

P. S. The time with Michael Perry from Spring Hill went well. There were three significant results of our conversation.

(1) He is going to give us "specs" for a zip line, a blob platform and a climbing wall. We will just have to build it now.

(2) We discussed a future relationship with CCCA (Christian Camp & Conference Association) to potentially develop an international partnership with a US camp(s).

(3) He will be passing on to us lessons/devotionals for 8-14 yr olds and instructional material for orientation and training for camp counselors.

We are thanking God for this great beginning.

LIFT OFF

Dear Intercessors,

Paul writes in his second letter to the Church of Corinth, "On him (God) we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, as you (intercessors) help us by your prayers. Then many (central and eastern Europe) will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many." You are helping us tremendously in wonderful ways by praying for us regularly. We give thanks to God for you.

Please pray as we prepare to "lift off". These next two weeks are critical weeks of preparation, communication, resting in God, being full of Him in every way, as we begin a "full" schedule.
