Hello everyone!!!!
I just wanted to say what a blessing it is to have all of you as my prayer warriors! I'm so sorry I haven't posted an update lately but life has been pretty hectic and busy around here as we are trying to wrap up everything for the trip.
So today being Monday the 24th, we leave in 4 days! I still can't believe it has come upon us so quickly! Yesterday, we performed one of our pieces at Metro (the Kawase's and Kimberly's church) and then were commissioned. It was a great time of prayer and blessing. Then we had our last official team meeting. We were able to organize costumes, pieces, makeup, clothes, and all other logistics.
Some things to pray for:
>We have yet to finish some of the pieces that we are taking. We need grace and strength on our bodies as we try to work in extra rehearsals with our parent presentations for Dramatic Truth.
>Grace. All of us have been feeling great pressure and are being attacked by the enemy mostly in our minds about our self worth and importance on this trip. Pray that we would hear God's voice clearly in this time.
>Natalie as she is already in Japan. She has encountered some hardships between two churches and is trying to organize different events
>Encounter with the Holy Spirit for each of us so that we will be filled to overflowing that we may show His love to everyone around us.
Thank you so much for praying! It is possible that we will have a computer in Japan so I may be able to send out quick updates from Japan. Thank you again!
Ashton! Wow! Only 4 more days! Takes my breath away - I can only imagine how you and the rest of the team may be feeling! It will be incredible - God WILL move in and through each of you. I will be praying for you the whole time and hope there will be time for some updates while you're gone.
ReplyDeleteMay God bless you, anoint you, fill you, strengthen you, and use you - all the days of your life but especially while you're gone.
Love,
Ellen and Dave
