Happy Thanksgiving! Zack and I are so thankful for your support for our ministry to international students and your prayers for our family. We recently had our Parent-Child Dedication for Paxton (pictured above) at our church.
Tomorrow, we will be hosting two Chinese gals for Thanksgiving: Iris and Summers. For Iris and Paxton both, it will be their first Thanksgiving. We are overjoyed for this opportunity, and we are not alone in this. Hundreds of Bridges staff/volunteers/supporters across the country will also be welcoming international students into their homes. Please join us in praying for the multitude of these special meals.
Please pray:
- For the hosts to make natural connections with the students and have an enjoyable time.
- The students would experience the love of Christ. (In light of the recent election, many students feel scared and uncertain about their future in our country).
- The Lord would open the door for spiritual conversations and on-going relationships. Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to share about America’s foundations and traditions of Christian faith – and how Christ is central to our lives today.
As always, we are thankful for you and your prayers.
