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

This is from the eamil we sent out to our email prayer partners. Please join us in praying this week. Thank you in advance!

Greetings! Would you please join us in prayer this week for several important things in our lives and the ministry here.

First, Matt and I were invited to attend a Latin American Calvary Chapel conference in El Salvador with Pastor Phil and Calvary Chapel Villarreal. Part of the conference will be spent at the Potter's Field Kids Orphanage and Ministry Center just outside of San Salvador, the capital city. We are so excited for this opportunity to travel and see where PFK all started as well as be part of what we are sure will be powerful time in the Word and solid biblical teaching. We will be traveling as a family to Managua, Nicaragua in our car on this Thursday, October 28, 2010, and flying out of Managua airport to San Salvador, El Salvador. Please pray for us as we travel up to Managua and then as we fly to San Salvador on Thursday. We will be returning to Managua, Nicaragua on Monday, November 1, 2010 and then driving back to Villarreal later that day. Please pray as we return on November 1st. Please pray also for Pastor Phil and two of the leaders of the church as they travel the entire day Thursday in bus and then again on Monday as they travel back in bus. It is about an 18 hour trip. Pray for wonderful fellowship during our time together as well. Praise God with us for this opportunity and blessing!

Second, please continue to pray for the kids of PFK. We are seeing them open up more and more and we love our time with them each week. Praise God with us for the weekly Bible Club as well. Last Thursday there were over 50 kids! Ask the Lord of the harvest with us to send workers to this ripe field!

Third, praise God with us for his answer to our prayer of receiving discipleship. We have begun to study inductively the book of Ephesians each week. Pray with us for God to open the eyes of our hearts that we may know him better, that God would give us the Spirit of wisdom and revelation and that we may know the hope to which he has called us and the incomparably great power we have in him. (Eph. 1:17-19)

Finally, please pray for each of our children. As they grow and mature we see them developing and maturing at a rate faster than we would like to see. Please pray specifically against the temptations this world offers. Please pray that their eyes, ears, and hearts be protected from all that is around them in these evil days. Ask God to surround us as a family, pray for us to keep him in the center, and for continued open communication with our kids. (Please don't be alarmed as nothing has happened to them...we just live in an evil world and ask for and covet your prayers for our family and children).

Thank you for your partnership with us in prayer.

"I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers." Ephesians 1:15

Serving Christ til He comes back,
Matt and Brooke
