NIDLWML Mission Trip

Prayers are requested for the following from the Ghana team:

*Prayers of thanksgiving are requested because we have had talks with our Ghana contact.  Some of our planning questions have been answered!!! 

*Also thanksgiving that our format/outline of the conference we will be presenting to the Ghanaian women is in place. 

*Please pray that one of our teammates, Linda, has a successful and smooth recover from foot surgery so that she is able to serve at 100% capacity in Ghana.

*Please also pray for our ability to turn everything over to God. Because God is in control of every and any situation that arises. 

*That God would continue to allow us to have fun with the planning process and to continue to keep us flexible as plans develop/change.

*That God would help us (and family and friends) prepare for this great adventure,  that we would be safe and keep our family and friends safe while we are away

Ghana, West Africa (July 30 to August 12, 2008)

The NID-LWML is taking a team of 12 women to Ghana to teach and work with women from all over Ghana.  The purpose is to support the work of the ELCG by equipping our sisters in Christ to disciple the women in their congregations and communities.  We believe that the Holy Spirit has blended our gifts for service to accomplish the task of teaching Biblical principles, mentoring, and small group dynamics "resulting in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed".  For more information, please contact Kris Blackwell at 630-234-1494 or kbwrk@sbcglobal.net.
