Life, Family, and Everything Else

For the first time in eleven months our family is together in Diouloulou as Ezra and Thea have returned to the village from boarding school in Dakar. Please pray for us as we spend the next few weeks together before school resumes and they return to Dakar for their senior year. Also, pray for Ezra and Thea as they begin their last year in Africa before transitioning back to the US next summer. 

Matt spent two weeks in the US last month for meetings at the United World Mission home office working on a regional strategic plan and then getting some brief moments with family back in Florida. Pray for Matt as he serves as the Regional Leader for UWM in West Africa and as he balances his leadership responsibilities with his other ministry roles. 

Gayle has been battling some sickness and some back problems over the last few weeks. Please pray that the Lord would heal her and that, especially for her back, she might be back to 100% very soon. 

Matt will be travelling to two West African countries in August to spend time with colleagues and national partners to see what God is doing there and to look for further opportunities in the region. Pray for safety as he travels and for wisdom as he meets and learns.
