Dear Prayer Team:

Please see the latest update from Croatia below.

As you can see, God is truly at work in Croatia, acting in and through our precious missionaries.  Please thank Him and Praise Him for His Grace and Goodness.

Keep your prayers going up to Him.  Pray especially for release of the pitching machine.

Be blessed,

Earl

P.S.  Thank you so much, Debbie!!

Earl,

 

I am at the bay and having trouble with Skype down here, so I have not had opportunity to talk much with David this weekend. We did talk briefly and he said the Texas carnival they had was tremendous. Had a good turn out. Everyone had lots of fun and they gave lots of Texas prizes away. They decided this is something they will want to do from now on. The Storks and Coach Daniel thanked them so much for the work they put into it. And all were very appreciative.

 

The Storks had a game today and they won....David got to pitch for them. He was excited about that. They all had a great time and their hard work at practice and camp has paid off. Afterwards, they spent time in fellowship and indulging in delicious Croatian ice cream!

 

A couple of the ladies (Shannon and not sure who else) got to go see Majah for a brief period on Friday, but David did not have an update on her. Please keep her in your prayers.

 

The first group returning back to US made it home safely and the remainder are all now at Janko's house. David has had lots of invitations to dinner and lunches from some of the Storks players and their families. Pray that he has the opportunity to share with them on these visits.

 

Joe and Grant Page leave Monday. Pray for safe travel for them as they return home to the US. Also pray that Joe can get the pitching machine released from customs before he leaves. If that is not possible they will have to hire a broker so they can get the machine.

 

Continue to pray for their mission in Croatia. They are all feeling your prayers and support and thank you very much!

 

Debbie for David
