Prayer Letter March 2009
March
Madness has set in. Not so much for basketball but more so for the
various projects we have underway. Our interns are doing a fantastic job
teaching and pursuing all that God has for them in this year.
While AR tries to create sustainable programs to empower many there are often times God slows us down to focus on the one. Nicodemus is a friend of ours and he needed a new bed. God provided! We just got to see it happen up close. See the pics and read Allan’s most recent blog post about this beautiful opportunity to be an answer to prayer.
During February we took our intern get away trip to the Cape. We drove down the Garden Route and were astounded at South Africa's beauty. The highlight for us was meeting Floyd McClung. The famous Y.W.A.M. missionary who lived with his family in Kabul, Afghanistan and then the Red Light District in Amsterdam.

Prayer
1.
Mercedes-Benz informed us last month that due to the economy they had to
recall our donated lease of the Vito mini bus, as of March 1st. This was
an unexpected blow as the Vito is such a workhorse for AR. Referring to
Matthew 21, Pastor Vincent said, "The Lord needs this donkey, and no
one else will have it." He then announced a church wide day of
fasting and prayer Monday February 23 for the Vito! We were wowed at the
members’ faith and excitement to see God move. When we called on the
26th to get instructions for returning the vehicle, they told us the
lease had been extended to the end of June when we are leaving...!
Praise God! What touched our hearts was the next Sunday, when the church
took the time to give God a blow-the-roof-off song of praise and thanks
for answered prayer.
As always we are thrilled to be partnering with you in doing God's work here in Southern Africa.
follow close, follow hard
