27 Jul July 2010 Prayer Update
We want to update you on our progress so far! The Lord has blessed and encouraged us incredibly. We are now over 80% of the funding needed to move to Little Rock. FamilyLife has asked us to come to Little Rock in late August for final placement interviews and potential house-hunting. Steve will be interviewing in four different departments. Lila’s placement will be dependent on what we decide to do for schooling. While we are excited to be this far in the process, please pray that we would reach our goal in a timely manner and that God would be glorified.
In the last few weeks God has been teaching us about His timing and patience and reminding us that He is our Provider.
“For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:32-33
We want to ask you to pray about the creation of an encouragement team for us. This would be a group of people that would meet and pray together for our family and ministry and would also help us keep in touch with our friends. A friend, Mike Myers, has expressed an interest in helping this team get started. You may contact him by email at mmyers5@cox.net.
We have a new website, www.bayerfamilylife.com which our son Ansen helped create for us. Check it out, it includes a blog and links to various resources at FamilyLife!
