Hamm Prayer Points - 22|01|07


WE (HEART) SNOW!

Winter has come back to St. Petersburg. While we may live at the 60th parallel in Russia, that doesn't mean that we have a "real" winter! Too often our winters are simply cold & rainy, but once in a while we get enough snow to cover the dirt of the city!

Work is pretty busy right now with lots of preparation for the conference. Meanwhile Lena is starting a new project for Canadian LifeLight Ministries: she is translating the Lion Graphic Bible into Russian.

Thank you for your faithful prayers & support of our ministry!

— Kevin, Lena, Sonia, Maya & Deena


COMING TO CANADA

No news is...no news! We're still waiting for confirmation that our paperwork has reached Moscow. We're but a few weeks away from the ultimatum that the Embassy laid down for us in December. Without those documents our application will be denied and we will have to begin all over again. Please keep the visa process in your prayers!


BLESSINGS

* Good health has returned to our home! Thank you for praying for Lena over the past week.

* It looks like sleep habits have also improved in our home. Your prayers are appreciated!


PETITIONS

* Please continue to pray for the upcoming (Feb. 4-9) Christian Camping Leaders Conference. We have eleven days until our staff leave for the conference site, and there is still lots of preparation to do. Please pray for good health and plenty of energy for our staff of eight as we sprint toward the conference start date.

* Sonia is hoping to complete her jewellery studies by sometime next month. She still has several tasks and a major project to complete before she is given her diploma. Please pray that she will be able to finish well.


DID YOU KNOW...

* ...that Soviet bus stops were, well, "unique"? I've seen a lot of interesting ones in my travels, but this site showcases some of the best (or worst). Enjoy!
