Prayer Requests for this week

1) pray for Santi as he will be attending a "Spiritual Retreat" day on Friday with other HCJB Global staff - missionaries and nationals. Pray that it will be a good time of spiritual refreshment for all attending.

2) Pray for Ruth as she will be going to the annual Extreme Response CSO retreat with our new group of high school students. We have an enthusiastic group of 18 students this year who will be organizing and doing the Kids Club out at the dump on Wednesdays. Pray for this retreat this Friday and Saturday - that we would enjoy getting to know one another and also have some good time of team-building and training. (and pray for Santi who will be staying home with Nathan!)

3) Pray for Santi as he has to travel to Tulcan (his home town about 4 hours from Quito) on Sunday in order to vote - this Sunday is the national vote on the new constitution that has been written by the new President of Ecuador, Correa (and a bunch of assembly members). Santi needs safety in travel and pray for the voting on Sunday - the new constitution is very socialistic in nature and brings concerns to many of us.

4) Pray for the service on Sunday at the Hogar Betania (Bethany Home for the Elderly). Ruth & Nathan will be going without Santi. Our friends Mike & Carol are back from several weeks in the states and our other friend Helen Broach-Swanson will be there with us.

5) Pray for the new English class that Ruth will be teaching next week. Placement tests will be done on Monday and class will start on Weds.
