1. Rain Forest International School, our 6th through 12th grade institution, is in need of 15 teachers for the next school year. Some of them are returning teachers, some are struggling to raise support, and some have yet to be identified. Please pray that these teachers would be found, and that all of them would be able to join the remaining staff in August fully supported and ready to go. Theresa starts school here next school year.
2. Our financial support sagged a bit last year, but we had an excellent first month of 2012. Please pray that the Lord would continue to meet all of our financial needs for the remainder of our term here in Cameroon. We plan to go on furlough again in the summer of 2013.
3. Branch Conference and Spiritual Retreat are fast approaching. Please pray that the Lord would enable Mark to do well in his Conference Manager responsibilities (especially as those responsibilities have changed a bit since the last time he did this), and pray that the Lord would guide and direct the Cameroon Branch as we discuss many issues bearing upon our future work in Cameroon during Conference.
