Please Pray

The youth missions team is on their final flight to their destination. An hour after they took off from Tokyo, it experienced a 6.6 earthquake (no damage or injuries). And we awoke this morning to read that the country where they are heading is on its highest level of alert due to political unrest and protests in the capital city - which is where they will land and then take ground transportation to another town a few hours away. Folks from Britain are being told to leave or keep a low profile. I hope our group can exaggerate their Texas twangs!

Please pray for their safety. I know none of this is a surprise to God, but it has raised mom & dad's anxiety a few notches!

Praying for your son and the group--for their safety and protection. I will also pray for peace for you. I KNOW the sleep you will lose this week.....Let us put them in God's hand and leave them there.
