Prayer points for December

Dear Friends

As we face different tasks, it is always encouraging to know we have friends praying for us.
Here are some points that we ask you to pray for.

Please pray for the teenagers who are coming to the church.
Tei, who is 16, has been coming to church for around 6 years now. He believes in the Lord's existence, and knows the importance to follow Him, yet has not come to a point to commit to the Lord and receive salvation. His Friend Taku, came to church for the first time 2 months ago and has been coming every now and then, ever since. This winter, Tei and his Taku are going to the Hi-b.a. (High School Born Again-ers) bible camp. Please pray that the two of them will come to know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour at the camp.
Please also pray for the other teenagers too. non of them have come through yet.

Please pray for the children.
I went to various Children's special events to do gospel illusion shows. we had many non-Christian and quite a few first-timers at these events. though they are past events I ask you to pray that the seens that were sown might grow and the children might come to faith.
*list of the events.
16th of November : Hiratsuka Seikei church with 10 or so children.
5th of December : Odawara Kangaroo Cafe  with 10- 15 mothers and toddlers
7th of December : Shonan Grace Chapel with 45 children and 10 or so non-christian adults
14th of December : Hiratsuka Evangelical Church with 41 Children.

Please pray for the International Candlelight Service
Every year, on Christmas eve, we have the International Candlelight Service. As Japanese people think of Christmas as being a romantic day, we get quite a few non-Christians attending this service. I will be preaching in English and Ai will be translating for this event. please pray that the Lord will give seeking hearts to the people, and bring them in, and speak to them at the service.
We have also invited some English speakers from near by too. Please pray that they too might come and be saved.

Please pray for Ai and the Baby
That's right! There is a baby!
We are expecting a baby boy to be born in April. We thank the Lord for this blessing, and ask you to pray for safety, for both mother and child. Please pray that the Lord might bless the child, so that the child will come to know Christ at a young age, and live to follow and glorify His Name through out his life.

Also, due to the expected birth, we have changed our plans slightly, and will no longer be going back to the UK in April. But hope to be with you from mid August until early November. We hope to see you then.

in Him
