Dear Friends and Family,
It’s a rainy morning in Mississippi and I’m in Jackson for
class and work at Jackson State University.
I have some important news and prayer requests to share with
you.
The Roof over my Head:
I had a gentleman come over recently to remove some leaves
and he brought to my attention that there are some soft spots on my roof. I had
a roofer come over and give me an estimate for the repairs. Based on his
estimate, I submitted a claim to the insurance and I have been told that my
portion will be $2500. I need the roof repaired, there’s no way around
that, but like most folks, I don’t have the $2,500. I would appreciate it if
you would pray with me for the Lord’s provision regarding this need. He is my
provider.
Delayed Grad-ification
I also wanted to let you know that it is unrealistic for me
to graduate May 1 as I previously anticipated. I’ll have to
continue working on my dissertation into the summer. This new schedule
means the Committee Report of Defense Results is June 30 and Final Graduation
Clearance will be July 24.
Thank you so much for your prayers and interest in what the
Lord is doing in my life. I wanted to share this request with so you can join
me prayer.
Key Terms & CBTC Interns
On February 27, CBTC board members and translators met to
talk with Translation Consultants Wayne and Elena via Skype. Laura-Christel
joined us in a three way Skype call to discuss key terms used in the
translation. (See attached photo) Technology allows us to communicate over
great distances – what a blessing!
This summer CBTC will be hosting 2 interns as part of the
Wycliffe Summer Internship program. Please pray for the two young ladies who
are planning to join us in Mississippi to participate in translation and
cultural events.
