Pray for Wendy Wills

Hey everyone! This post is from Sue:-)

Wendy Wills is headed for Siberia next week. She would like all of us to pray for her and the team she is going with. Here's what she has to say about the trip:

Dear Songwriters,

You have probably received an invitation to a blog called "Hope4Noz". You may have already hit delete, not knowing who sent it to you. (Thanks Lee, for bringing this to my attention!) Well, I did! Why? Because I am going to Siberia! On June 25th I will be heading for the land cold, snow, & ice for a week of ministry. Of course, it's summer there, so there won't be any snow, cold or ice. Sigh!! Maybe I can go in the winter sometime!

Novokuznetsk is a city in Siberia, located just a little north of the middle of nowhere. My church, Grace Community Church, is for the second year in a row sending a team of teachers there to hold ESL classes. My role on the team is to lead music in the classroom for the teachers, and then do three concerts in evening for the students. I will have the privilege of sharing the story of my journey with Christ in word and song. Other teachers will share as well. The blog can fill any details you are interested in.

I have tried to get all your addresses to the person kindly administrating our team blog. If you did not receive the email invitation here is the link: http://www.blogger.com/i.g?inviteID=1214850457014981641&blogID=4849988176756087561.

Novokuznetsk is the city where one of my favorite authors was married, Fyodor Dostoyevsky. This quote from him sums up our reason for going half way around the world: "Man, so long as he remains free, has no more constant and agonizing anxiety than to find as quickly as possible someone to worship." It is our hope that the people of this city will one day worship the One True God through Jesus Christ.

As a guide to prayer for the team, I want to invite you to pray Colossians 3:12-15 for us. There are about 12 things which Paul exhorts the Colossians to do. You can pray one each day we are away or all of them everyday! I will do the same for you. Please keep the Russian believers in your prayers as well.

God's grace to you.
