Post from Ivan

Gentlemen, Ivan here and it is so good to be able to address you all as a group again... this blog is sweet.

I have been wanting to update you all and solicit your prayers. So, to limit wordcount, I will combine the updates with the prayer requests. I have been invited to start a fellowship at our small and growing church. I believe the Lord would have me start a college age ministry and would seek his guidance, timing, and opening of doors so that we know that this would be his creation, not mine. Please pray in any other way that the Lord would lead you for this.

As for work, my job is very challenging. Part of the job is sales, which I like but have had difficulty with. I am getting impatient, but really believe that this is challenging my ability to persevere. So please pray that the Lord would help me persevere and close a few deals.

Otherwise, I wish you all the best and cant wait to hear from you. I pray for you very often and will certainly keep my eyes on this sight to learn how a can pray more specifically.

May you all be empowered by the Holy Spirit to battle for the kingdom, remain in obedience, and be filled to overflowing by the lov of Jesus.
