\nRequests:\u00a0
\nPray for patience and wisdom in parenting.\u00a0
\nPray for\u00a0us as Ron continues to work M-F out of state and I care for the home and kids.\u00a0 Being apart so much is difficult.\u00a0

\nPray Michelle a good week at Sr. Hi camp at Portage Lake.\u00a0
\nAnd pray that we’ll continue to discover ministry partners so that Ron may begin his job at RFIS the fall of 2010 (we know we won’t have enough support to be able to be there for the fall of ’09).<\/p>\n
