PRAISE: That we have a home close to our kids as they transition between accommodations. For providing accommodation for our kids as they prepare to start a new academic year. Liam, Kieran and Mackenzie all had birthdays this past month. We're thankful for each of them! For generous donations through our home church to Beirut relief efforts. For the lifting of Covid restrictions that have allowed some team members in the Middle East to return to their country of service. PRAY: For quick healing for Kieran who has a bad ankle sprain. For our kids as they settle into their new accommodations. For God's provision for the COVID Strategic Emergency Relief Fund that Phil is overseeing. For wisdom & direction for the SIM International Board of Governors meeting (virtually) this month. Phil will participate for the first time. For continued wisdom for us both as we carry a wide variety of responsibilities. For people who are planning to return to their home countries for a period of home assignment to be able to travel.
