Partnership Tasmania - Phase 2

We appreciate your prayers as Partnership Tasmania Phase 2 begins tomorrow. Chris, Heather, Dempsey, and Jace Horton will be flying to Beauty Point, Tasmania to partner with Point Christian Fellowship for a two week mission effort. God is doing amazing things in the Tamar River area, so we look forward to being the Texans on the Tamar-- who have come to help share the good news of Jesus.
Feel free to pray as the Lord leads, but here are some highlights of our preparations:
Please pray for safe, uneventful travel for our four flights to Tasmania. (traveling with children is always an adventure.)
Begin praying now for interactions in churches, Adult Day Care facilities, and Teen Pizza Nights.
Pray for Chris as he preaches and shares from his heart in services, discipleship meetings, evangelistic Men's meetings, and Family Nights.
Pray for health and safety of all involved.
Pray for Heather as she prepares to speak at Ladies' events, Family Nights, and in home Bible Studies.
Be in prayer for Jace and Dempsey as they prepare to sing, teach Mission Friends and Children in Action, and build relationships with children and adults in each meeting.
Pray for an openness to the gospel of Jesus Christ and that men and women would be drawn to each event to hear about Jesus.
Be in prayer that the evangelism bracelets and Christian materials would accomplish HIs purpose in the days and weeks to come.
Pray the the Hortons would be an encouragement to the people of the community, Point Christian Fellowship and area churches. They have put so much prayer and preparation into this time.
Pray for Jace and Dempsey as they distribute scripture cards.

We would like to thank each of you (from across the world) for your prayers, donations, and passion for the Tasmania mission work. Huge hugs to all of you. The work has been a community endeavor! Keep praying and we will keep updating!-- Heather
