Jacksons Head to FLY in Estes Park, CO

Dear E-mail Prayer Partners:

image"Your prayer life denotes how much you depend on your own ability, and how much you really believe in your heart when you sing, "Nothing in my hands I bring, simply to Thy cross I cling..." The more self-confidence you have, the less you pray. The less self-confidence you have, the more you have to pray." Lars Widerberg.

Well, this is it. Today we pull out for Estes Park Colorado for the FLY convention. I will have a full van of seven kids and myself. We will meet our brethren at Abiding Savior up in Tucson, then we will travel in a convoy of three vehicles.

As you can imagine our kids are all exited about this trip. But our confidence is that Jesus will do more than we could ask or think on this trip. Pray that each participant, every teen and child would receive all that God would have for them in the grace of our Lord Jesus.

Let not our confidence be in ourselves, but in the One who raised Jesus up from the dead that our confidence might be in Him. Pray also for our families and congregations that we leave behind.

Your fellow workers,
Darwin, Mary Ann, Gracie, Gabe, Rachael and little Melina
