Phil & Andrea Bauman

Thank you for your interest and prayers over the last couple weeks
Praise God:

• for very productive, encouraging and unifying meetings for SIM's Executive Team (Phil is part of this team).

• for the guidance and oversight of SIM's International Board of Governors who met last week.

• that the Board approved and supported the Ministry Focus and Integrated Systems Implementation Plan that Phil was part of preparing.

• that Andrea could come to Charlotte and join Phil last week so that she could also connect with colleagues.

• that Cara has started her semester well, that Liam has started his new job and Kieran has also started the first course of his Masters of Divinity.

Please pray

• For the opportunity to refresh after an intense few weeks. We did have a calm retreat day as you can see above.

• For wisdom for Phil and his colleague Dave as they lead the Ministry Focus and Integrated Systems Implementation Plan approved by the board.

• For a productive few weeks at home before a very busy travel season.

• For Andrea as she takes over a large part of Helen's role while she is on sabbatical. Helen is SIM's International Personnel Director.
