Wow! We’re back home again. After Hong Kong, Sri Lanka and London, we’re home for a few days. It has been an incredible start to the Summer, with a lot of new friends and a ton of new vision.
In Hong Kong we attended the Call@All.org conference, spoke in a local church and taught work shops. In Sri Lanka I taught leaders at two seminars and then spoke in three different churches before heading back to London where Devi and I spoke at a conference and two local churches.
The problem is, every time I go overseas, or actually anywhere, I always meet someone that I want to invest in. This time it was in London where I met a man from Uganda who has adopted 40 orphans. That’s all I needed. I empted both my wallet and my heart. My frustration is that the needs are so great and my income is so small. God help me.
I fly to the Texas Panhandle this weekend, but then I’ll be home for several weeks. Hopefully we’ll get to talk in the next few days or weeks.
My next international trips are in September when I’ll go to the West African nations of Mali, Guinea, and Sierra Leone. Devi and I continually need God’s wisdom for what invitations to accept. My heart is pulled by the Great Commission.
I’m trying to become more technically inclined, because up to this point I’ve been technically declined. I need your prayers, help and understanding. Again, HELP! So this week I’m opening my face book account. Is that progress or what? And only three years late.
Thank you for your love, prayers and support. I couldn’t make it with you. Please stay in touch.
I love you,
Larry
