Requesting prayers

We're blessed and thankful to have a Christian vice principal. Praise God! 


Our principal and director (a married couple), however, are buddhist.


Thanks to our church, we got them a Bible in Korean. Tonight Beka and I each wrote them a letter telling them why we're giving them a Bible, why it's so important to us, and a bit of our own stories. 


We need prayers as we're going to ask our vice principal to translate our letters as they speak very minimal English. Pray that our VP would translate our letters and not be afraid to do it. 


Pray for us also for the courage to give it to them without looking back. Pray that we wouldn't focus on the short term such as how they could possibly negatively react but on long term, and a chance for them to receive eternal life. Pray that we would demonstrate the light of God to them and our students. 


Most importantly, pray for God to prepare their hearts for His word and for them to accept the knowledge of truth. 


1 Timothy 2:1, 3-5


"First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people....This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of truth. For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.."
