Look Out France - Here we Come...

Six of us, all women- go figure- are headed to France in December- we'll be helping workers there with some Christmas activities and other things. Much of this blog will sound idiotic and very cryptic as we try to keep tight security - we will use all kinds of kooky initials and "winks" and shortcuts but we hope you can figure out what we are talking about - LOL! Begin to pray right this minute that God will be glorified in all we do in this dark region -that His Word will come alive and we will be ambassadors for Christ through the activities and relationships we experience

Pray for team unity among the gals- Lisa (team leader) Cindy Charon Kristen Maureen and Sandy- and for the workers there and the people they minister to - what a blessing to interrupt the craziness of "Christmas" in America and travel across the ocean to experience "Christmas" - Immanuel, GOD WITH US - in a foreign land. Pray NOW - Oct/Nov- as we begin to get ready - remember that as moms and aunts and daughters we ARE the Christmas ELVES in our families - we have to continue our regular busy lives, PLUS pack and shop and prepare for France PLUS prepare ahead for Christmas and even Thanksgiving so that when we arrive back home on Dec 17, jet-lagged and exhausted, we'll be able to make it through Christmas in one piece- LOL! And don't forget the spiritual component- we are headed to a very dark region, a huge battleground for the souls of many - and the evil one is active, have no doubt. Please pray - in the words of Paul Borthwick, missions author: if YOU are not praying, WE are not going! Please lift us up, now and while we are in France, and pray for a binding of the enemy plus a great outpouring of the Holy Spirit to empower our work - THANKS!!
