PRAYER UPDATE: PORT KLANG

          God has been so faithful in answering my prayers.  I’m thankful for all He is doing.  I had another great ministry day.  There was a group of four of us that went to a local church for our ministry day with the kids. 

            We had to be extremely flexible!  When we arrived we were told by the captain of the brigade, that we would be teaching the boys and girls together.  Before arrival we were told we would be working in separate groups, male & female.  Last second we combined the two plans to form a great lesson for the boys and girls.  They were a wonderful bunch of munchkins.  We played several fun games, did a drama, and I gave the lesson.  Everything went smoothly as this was my first event as leader.  Being a leader is tough because everything falls on your shoulders. 

PRAYER REQUEST:

·         I will lead another ministry day soon. Pray that I’ll be able to demonstrate a good example of a humble servant.  I’ll be leading those that have been on-board for awhile know.  Pray that we’ll all get along and our ministry day will go smoothly. 

·         I’ve been praying for challenges in my life as I know through adversity you grow the most.  I’ve also been praying for stronger communication skills as I felt weaker than most in this area.  I’ve been challenged in many ways since joining the ship; specifically.

o   Workplace – communications (leader doesn’t understand much English)

o   Roommates – tight room amongst 4 men can be a little dirty. Pray for good attitudes too. 

o   PST Penang – (this is the group I arrived to the ship with), Pray that I’ll be able to continue to develop strong friendships within this group.  I’ve been leading a prayer meeting every Sunday night.

o   Crew – Pray for humility, joy, and servitude for the rest of the crew.

·         Pray for strength, perseverance, joy, passion, love, friendships, and humility

Praises:

·         Praise God I’ve been able to lead and have great ministry opportunities.  Many days on-board we’re able to wander down to the book-fair and share the love of Christ with the nationals that are constantly visiting. 

·         I’ve been having a great time on-board in Malaysia

·         I’ve made many new friends amongst the crew and nationals
