Please pray for the Choates!!

Please pr@y for our dear friends, Aaron and Joanna Choate, as well as their children, Sarah, Benjamin, Olivia and Katherine. They are Ms with Wycliffe and have been in Papua New Guinea for the past few months preparing and training to share the B!ble with those who have never read the Word of G*d in their language. They just arrived at their new home in the Solomon Islands and we found out this morning that Joanna has malaria as well as a bad infection in her leg. They are asking as many pr@yer warriors as possible to pr@y for healing and protection during this time.

Isaiah 55:5 jumped off the page today and Aaron and Joanna immediately came to heart - "Surely you will summon nations you know not, and nations that you do not know will hasten to you, because of the L*RD your G*d, the Holy One of Israel, for He has endowed you with splendor."

"The world is not our place of rest; it is a time of work and follow hard after Je$us. When we get home, we can rest. But for now, G*d is calling His children to share the gospel of the cross, the power of our Holy Father; it's time we obediently follow Him. May we all live our lives in a manner worthy of the calling we have received in Chr!st Je$us. May we live lives we will never regret." -- FACING TERROR, Carrie McDonnall
