Prayer Requests for October 20, 2008

¡Buen día amigos! We have had another busy week here in Costa Rica. Haylee is busy with school and cheerleading practices. Jackson is working hard in school and playing hard at soccer. Both Haylee and Jackson had big Spanish exams this week and did well. Liesa and Jeff are working hard at learning as much Spanish as we can cram in our heads. We are all thankful for a day off from school today (Monday, October 20).

We had a busy weekend with IMB meetings. The International Mission Board takes good care of us with training and providing resources to help us in so many ways. We are thankful for Southern Baptists and a strong committment to supporting missionaries around the world.

We are MORE than thankful for those of you who pray regularly. Please pray for ...

1. Haylee and Jackson. Your prayers have been answered in many ways in their lives. They are doing well in school. They have developed deep friendships here. They are involved in ministry projects. They are learning Spanish. Continue to pray for these areas. And, pray for our upcoming move to Peru. This will be another big adjustment for them.
2. Language school for Liesa and Jeff. We are on the downhill slide toward December. We still have much to learn and need to remain motivated. "Final trimester -itis" is setting in.
3. La Carpio. Pray for the ministry at La Carpio. Every Thursday at 2:30 pm Central Time. If you would like to read about La Carpio go here... LA CARPIO.

Thank you all for your prayers and support. We would love to hear what is going on with all of you. Send us some mail... lholeman@samregion.com.

ALSO, Remember Liesa's birthday is coming up on November 3!
