We are excited and a bit stressed but we are very thankful. We are thankful to celebrate 1 year of living in the town home. We are thankful for all of the prayers and support that you have shown to us. We are thankful for a great trip to Slovakia this year with a team of 5 men from the Barn men's ministry and the growing ministry in Slovakia.
On 2003 August 23, we received a prophetic word that we are going to be in ministry, and the Lord was going to take us many places to prepare us. From this we knew the Lord was calling us into ministry. This year on August 23, the 10 year anniversary of when we were called into ministry, I had a dream that we are still in preparation but that we are in the last stage of our preparation.
Cyril is still coaching over Skype. We have hosted 4 families at our home and this has been very special to us. During their stay we were able to continue to disciple and train them as well as point them to the great resources we have in this community. In Slovakia we have 4 groups meeting every month. In these groups we are training them about the 7 mountain mandate and what it means to live in brotherhood and fellowship.
Olivia is in high school now. She is doing well in her classes and tennis.
Maria is now working with the school at Morningstar called CSCL. She is in charge of reset, supporting the other teachers in their classes and she is able to pray for many of the children for the Father's heart.
Prayer needs:
We are seeking the Lord about our visa; it will expire in April, and we are praying that we can get the same kind of visa again. Please pray that the Lord will continue to direct us in this.
That our Family will become closer this year.
Our preparations for the team that we will take to Slovakia next year: that we will be able to prepare for the ministry, how we can minister connected to the Holy Spirit, and that we will be able to come together in unity as a team.
Monthly support: we are behind on our rent and will need to pay that off in the near future.
We are seeking the Lord about whether or not we should go to Slovakia over Christmas.
Please email or call if you have some wisdom from the Lord for us or something the Lord has led you to share with us.
We give God thanks for you and pray you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones!
Cyril, Maria, Olivia
