Dearest friend …
 
Wow … these have been such difficult weeks for so many in the USA and the Middle East!  You’re exposed to all this news; you know.  Our hearts weep at the sufferings, as homes, livelihoods, and families are so disrupted; never the same.  And yet in the poverty of these experiences, we are hearing such threads of hope, faith, togetherness.  It seems for every news interview we see in North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, and our personal conversations with those in Lebanon, etc., there are those words and intonations of voice that express a “together”, “we’re gonna pull through this”, and a “we’re gonna pull through this TOGETHER”!  It’s so powerful!  And so we give, solicit resources, arrange, work, and “still” ourselves in Him who alone can contain and enter into the “ALL of it all”, comprehending it all, as we so certainly cannot.  As I like to say … “I ‘invitation'(verb) You into that ALL of all I simply cannot handle.”

So, for the sake of brevity, and need to relate to you a few of the many blessings of these weeks past … 
        
*   Conferences in Lebanon and Iraq/Kurdistan were a hit and loved by all!  Kurdistan especially wants to double their attendance, so other leaders can attend.  
*   Charlie Lamento, our International Attorney, did a excellent job in his initial relationships connections in Iraq, laying out many new plans for teaching and implementing in government and university settings.  
*   Joni&Friends (and many other friends here in the USA and Lebanon) have helped us get a 40′ container loaded with wheelchairs en route to Beirut, Lebanon … in such a crucial time as this!  
*   Safety abounded for our team …

Pray … 
       
*   The container arrives safely in Beirut and there are no issues at the ocean port or the airport.  
*   Leaders and their wives who attended the conferences would overflow their restoration to all in their care, shepherding well.  
*   Safety and ability to function well for our friends in Lebanon, as they never stop serving and ministering … no matter what!  
*   Ability and resources to continue serving all 7 organizations and leaders under our umbrella …
*   So much opening up for all of us … so wisdom to choose well our foci of work and followings …
*  Strength and restoration for Nora, as she juggles so much in this new position of teaching special needs elementary learners.  She still needs to pass the reading portion of her Praxis exam for Colorado, qualifying her to teach.  
*   EOY – End-Of-Year is fast approaching, and we have much to wrap up and continue expanding, as doors open, and we approach 31 December ’24.

Nora and I are so grateful for you; as we both sense your presence for us, and in all the ways you undergird our lives. 

“Be still and know that I am … ”  
“Be still and know … ” 
“Be still … ” 
“Be … ”
