Thank you for
praying for the
people and ministry
here as the Lord
leads!!!!
“A” and “Clar”
have been living in
a small trailer at “Clar’s”
parents’ place.
They do not have
running water or a
good heating source
so as the weather
gets cold so does
the trailer. With a
baby and two
toddlers they are
trying to find a
suitable place for
the winter. “A” has
a coworker, Kevin,
who lives here in
Sanders who is a
Christian.
Kevin wants
to counsel “A” as he
went through much of
what “A” has with
alcohol and
upbringing. I am
very happy to hear
“A” wants to meet
with him!! “Clar”
has expressed her
desire to keep
meeting with me as
well. I only want
God’s will to be
done in their lives
whatever way God
wills to do it.

Sarah has received
final word that she
is to be laid off
October 16th.
I am concerned about
how she is handling
this but
have not been
able to talk with
her the past couple
of weeks as she has
had to work on
Tuesday evenings and
was gone over the
weekend. She is
still grieving over
losing her daughter
and feels God took
her away and now
He’s taking her job,
which she was seeing
as a ministry,
away. I am in much
prayer for her and
for myself to have
great sensitivity to
God’s leading in
what to say and when
to say it. It is
too easy to sit
back, look at
someone else’s life
and tell them what
we think should be
said. That’s what
Job’s friends did
and they said some
things about God
that were true, but
they were wrong in
their whole approach
to Job as well as in
much of what they
said. I believe it
is far better to
pray for God’s work
in someone’s life
than to try to fix
them with what
I
think
they need to hear,
afterwards find out
God wasn’t in it and
I’ve wounded their
hearts more with my
insensitive direct
line approach.
Guess how I have
been learning
that!!!!!! You got
it, the hard way!!!
“Alv”
went to work in
Colorado for only
one week as it
turned out to be far
too demanding
physically. Her
knees became so
painful she could
hardly keep walking
so she came back
home and has been
trying to look for
work in Gallup, NM.
I want to have a
talk with her to see
how I might be able
to help her get some
kind of a
scholarship for
Bible school if she
still has the desire
to go.
I had two young
girls taking
horsemanship lessons
early in the summer
but then one moved
back to CA and the
other had to quit
because of the
heat. Now I have a
young Navajo man,
“J,” and his Anglo
girl friend, “E,”
taking lessons. “J”
attended release
time classes when we
were doing them with
the elementary
school students.
“E” does not seem to
be comfortable about
anything in the
spiritual realm. I
don’t know how “J”
sees spiritual
issues now but Lord
willing I will soon.
Thank you for your
prayers and
financial support!!
God bless each of
you, especially
during these tough
economic times.
Prayer Requests:
-
Suitable housing
for “A’s”
family;
-
God’s continued
healing work in
Sarah’s life and
job provision;
-
God’s will in “Alv’s”
life;
-
Wisdom and grace
in all my
contacts with
others for God’s
glory and their
good;
-
Continued growth
and
breakthroughs in
my horsemanship
study and
practice.
