Thank you for praying. These are the 6 things we're asking God for right now. When He answers, you'll read about it in our updates.

Justin praying for people at a church service
  1. The right people

    Since the day we landed in Davao, we've asked God to put the right people around us. That's still our prayer as we build an English-speaking, Holy Spirit-filled church here.

  2. Leaders for Rise Church Davao

    We're gathering and training leaders before Sunday services launch. Pray for the team as it forms, and for a place to meet as we grow.

  3. Families at our Bible studies

    Many are hearing for the first time that they can know God personally. Pray for them as they learn about water baptism.

  4. New believers from the June crusade

    About 1,100 people gave their lives to Jesus. Pray that it would be a real beginning, and for our team as we follow up with 135 of them.

  5. The Aeta village

    Pray for the families we serve there, who live without electricity or phones, that they keep growing in Jesus.

  6. Our family

    Pray for our girls at school and for steady hearts for all of us in this season.

Can we pray for you?

We'd love to. Send us your request and we'll pray for you as a family. Only the two of us read it.
