Lena and I were shocked to discover a few months ago that we are going to be having another child. We could not believe it at first, but after 3 pregnancy tests we began to accept the fact that our Father has decided to bless us for a second time. Lena is currently 16 weeks pregnant. If all goes well then we will have our second addition to the family around January 18, 2013. So far, Lena's pregnancy has been healthy. We are very grateful that all seems to be developing without complications. We would appreciate your pr@yers as you think of Lena. Pr@y specifically that Lena's blood pressure would remain under control throughout the duration of her entire pregnancy. Pr@y for a safe delivery and for a healthy baby. Our Father has been blessing us in more ways than one recently. We had several volunteers come from the States this summer to help reach out to the local community in our city. It was wonderful having them around all summer. Through their efforts, I met a South Asian student who is a new b*liever named Caleb. I met with him a couple of times this past month. He told me that he grew up in a Chr*stian family in South Asia, but he was never serious about his fa*th. He described how those Chr*stians that he grew up with were very relig*ous, but they did not truly care about the Father. He told me that he has recently been b*rn again and it has totally changed him. He has expressed to me that he has a desire to share his fa*th with others. I am hoping that he is willing to meet with me on a regular basis for training, encouragement, and accountability. I believe that the Father could use him in a mighty way if he will dedicate himself to the task.
