1 Corinthians 3:4-9

"For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere men?

What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building."

Weekly Prayer requests

Here is the email we sent out today with this weeks prayer requests:

Dear brothers and sisters,
We write to you this week with several things to pray for.

We ask that you continue to pray for the discipleship groups at both First Baptist church and Calvary Chapel. Pray that the leaders of both churches grow in heir relationship with Christ, continue to guard His Word in their hearts and that their enthusiasm for being a disciple and making disciples continues. Each week, it is a joy for Matt to witness these adults and some youth go over their lessons and say their verses. They take it seriously and it really is encouraging to see! We are more and more convinced of the power of discipleship as we see these church leaders become built up in him, their faith is strengthened and they overflow with thankfulness for the discipleship groups. Each week, members of the churches give thanks for discipleship and it is a joy to hear their thankfulness. Pray with us that they will keep their focus on Christ and pray that they will each go and make disciples as well.

Praise God with us for the way He continues to weave our lives together with our neighbors. Pray for Brooke as she meets for the second time with Elvita, Dinora and Ana and they go over the salvation lesson. Pray for Brooke as she prepares to share the gospel with them this Thursday. Pray that the Holy Spirit will be present and they will each give their lives to Christ.

Pray for us as we travel to Nicaragua, Monday, February 1 to renew our visas. We will be returning Wednesday, February 3.

Praise God with us for really positive days for homeschooling with Brooke and the kids! Praise God that we seem to have finally found a routine that works for everyone! Continue to pray for Brooke as their teacher. Thank you for praying - we feel your prayers! :)

Continue to pray for the mission team in March. We continue to make plans for lodging, food and the schedule. Pray for those who are struggling to meet the financial needs to come.

Thanks you for praying for our family!

In Christ,
Matt and Brooke :)

Serving Christ 'til He comes back,
Brooke :)
