Praise Report:
I booked another trip out Nepal!! September 26, I will be heading back and staying there with another missionary friend of mine for a month and then meeting up with the Promise Child and Calvary Chapel WestGrove team in November. During my stay in October, I will be taking in-country language lessons, teaching a one month workshop on Worship and Praise at Salvation Institute of Music, helping Gopal and Sheila Sharma with random administrative tasks and doing more Promise Child updates. When I meet up with the team, we will be traveling to West Nepal and holding our 5th Annual Pastor and Leader’s Conference. After the trip with the team, I will be flying back to the USA with them.
Prayer Request:
I am currently in the process of fundraising for my upcoming trip as well as starting to go church-to-church to share about my future ministry in Nepal and looking for monthly sponsors. Please pray the Lord provides for all of my needs…as He always does.
I mailed in all of the paperwork for mine and Pankaj’s Fiance Visa on July 1st and am now waiting for a confirmation that they received everything. Once I get the confirmation and case number, it will be a waiting game until they approve or deny it. Please pray that everything goes according to God’s plan and His timing.
Please also pray for all of the planning for my trip in October and the trip in November with the team goes smooth.
Thanks for your prayers and support!!

USA/Praying about Greece
Travis and Kristin Spencer
Please pray for us in regards to our calling to Greece. Right now we are trying to raise support for us to go out, but it can be discouraging. Pray that God would lead us and guide us, and most of all that we would be able to encourage ourselves in the Lord like David did in Ziklag.
“And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry.” 1 Timothy 1:12
God will enable us to what He has called us to do, pray that we would remember these words and find comfort in them.
Please also pray for Frank and Suzie Gonzalez and their move from Italy to Sopron, Hungary, they will be the missionaries leading our team in Greece. Also for other workers to come along side of our team in His timing. Thank you for praying.
In His everlasting arms,
The Spencer’s

Prayer Requests for this Month
Sudan
* We will be establishing a medical clinic on July 1 in South Sudan. This clinic will service five totally unreached tribes. These tribes have almost no medical care of any kind. As a result 50% of the children in this area die before their fifth birthday.
* Please pray that God will open doors for the Gospel to be clearly seen and heard so that salvation and the love of Jesus Christ will over take the darkness that these souls are trapped in.
* Pray for Evelyn, a nurse from Kenya, as she begins her native missionary service in South Sudan. Evelyn is the only full-time medical staff at this time. Please pray that we will be able to add more nurses and midwives.
* Please pray for Dr. Ben and Dr. Aubree Colton as they spend three weeks in South Sudan assisting at the new medical clinic.
* Pray for the financial support to supply ongoing medical care for the Tribes.
* Pray for the finances to purchase a 4 wheel drive ambulance to reach out to the 1 million people living in this region. The ambulance will also be used to transport teams of native evangelists to work alongside the medical staff.
* Pray for the recent converts among the unreached tribes that we are working in. Pray for their ability to understand and be firmly grounded in God’s word. They have a desire to bring the Gospel to their people and reach out to neighboring tribes. Pray that the Holy Spirit will give them wisdom and boldness to share the gospel in the midst of complete spiritual darkness and physical persecution.
EEM1040 Home Office
Rob Douglass
