From Glenn and Marilyn Parker: Last night Glenn's brother Bruce passed away in his sleep. As you know he has had some health challenges for the past two years. For the past month he has been isolated and having groceries, etc. delivered, so his death probably has nothing to do with the virus. Just God's timing.

The Bolivia team were refreshed to see how God used them at the retreat.
From Pat: Amy Dyas was used profoundly by God in her teaching on Freedom in Christ. The rest of the team were a great blessing as well.
[Sunday] we go to a church called ‘Dios es Amor’ - depot for the area affected by the floods... serving over 1000 meals a day in recent weeks. Pray that our team will be an encouragement as Terry shares from 2 Cor. 1:3 and as Rene shares testimony with Agustin translating. Also - in the evening Terry will preach again and Debbie will share a testimony. The team are doing so well. It has been a privilege and a joy to serve with them.

From Emmie Dryjski: Please pray for my nephew Cory who is terminally ill with stage 4 lung cancer and stage 4 liver cancer.
This news came as a shock and as a result, fear has got a grip on him. My nephew knows the way of the Lord, but has not surrendered his life to Christ. Please pray for God's grace to free Cory from this fear so that it will not cause him to resist God, but rather embrace salvation. Please also pray for God's comfort and peace for Bogdan and me so that we may be there for my nephew during this difficult time.
