hey...
it's saturday afternoon in the land of cairo...good morning to all of you in the U.S.
it's been a couple of days since our last blog and we just wanted to fill you in on what has been going on.
yesterday, we attended church with our worker family. the church was much like the 'community' churches we have back in the U.S. same songs, same type of service, etc...
we then went to the pyramids...holy cow! that was really beyond comprehension. we had the opportunity to pray and walk the grounds while we were there. we got some incredible pictures and will try to post those when we get back to the states...
we then prayed for a worker family here who has a heart to bring the gospel to libya. they have had a very difficult time getting into the country due to a ton of different rules and regulations.
this morning, we attended our worker family son's baseball game. he is a future all star!
we just finished praying for an American woman who has devoted her life to missions work. she has been in several different countries and now feels at home in egypt but is struggling with various issues. we felt like this was a divine appointment because we weren't even supposed to be home when she was here...
we are planning on heading out into the city later today to do more praying. our flight to head back to the states leaves tomorrow morning, but we have a 24-hour layoever in paris. i guess we'll find something to do there... : )
thank you all for your continued support and prayers. please pray as we conclude our trip and for safe travels as we will be spending lots of time in the air over the next few days.
love and grace and peace to all...

Hey Chip and Amanda,
ReplyDeleteSounds like your schedule is full of opportunity. As our Lord said, the harvest fields are ripe and now is the time. I was curious to to how the Muslims have been reacting to your presence and if they realize why you are in their country. We are so proud of the commitment to Christ you are demostrating by loving all people from your counseling work back home to the people on the streets of Cairo. We will continue praying for a successful prayer mission and for your safe journey back home.
Love Always, Stan,Laura & Payton
Have really enjoyed hearing about all of your experiences but must admit that I miss you all
ReplyDeleteso much. I am so proud of you and will continue to pray for your work there and for a safe journey home.
