Update Jan - April 2013

Hello Family & Friends!

Another “volunteer season” has come and gone in Dallas.  We are always sad to see them go...they become like family after a while.  We had several new couples & individuals this year, and a few have had to “retire” due to health  issues.  We had many projects around the International Linguistics Center (ILC) this year.  As usual, we had many volunteers working with our Buildings & Grounds Dept, Woodshop, Boutique, Sewing, Upholstery, Dining Hall, Global Publishing Services, Archives, Hospitality, Graduate Institute of Applied Linguistics, and other various Administrative jobs.  They started building the ILC in the 70’s, so as you may have guessed, 30 years later our volunteers do A LOT of maintenance, updates, and  remodels.  We had several this year.  Below are pictures of a few of them.  I wish I had “before” pictures so you could see the HUGE difference.

Prayer Requests:
~ Pray for wisdom as I plan the rest of the year, including travel for Partnership Development this summer in AR, IN, OH, MN, WI, NE, MO, KS, and then CO in November.
~ Pray for additional prayer & financial partners.  I am currently short about $1,000 per month.
~ Pray for open doors to raise awareness about WA & Bible translation.
~ Pray for complete healing with my back and neck issues.
~ We praise the Lord for a good volunteer season!
~ We praise the Lord that every season we are identifying more areas that volunteers can serve, thus accelerating Bible Translation.

Thank you all for your continued prayer and financial support. 
I cannot do this ministry without each of you!
