Hi Drew and Michele,
 
Please pass the below email to the YL Liberia work team.
 
Thanks,

Hi Team,

JOHNNY MAD DOG is a movie about the decade long brutal Liberian Civil War. The movie is now on sale and I would love that you see it. Though I was in Liberia and I had the bitter experience of the war, but I have not watched this movie. I have watched other movies related to the Liberian war, but Johny Mad Dog is the newest.

Can anyone of you please find me a DVD copy of Johnny Mad Dog and bring it along? I will really appreciate it.
 
James

Hi Team,

In about 12 days, we will  be together in Monrovia, Liberia to fulfill the call of our Lord to serve lost kids in Liberia and help them to grow in their faith and relationship with Jesus. What a great opportunity to serve the Lord in Africa! I am so excited about this and can't wait to see all of us together in sharing our love and the gospel of Jesus with kids who are thirty for adults' love/friendship and God's word.

I wanted you to please take up your time to pray for the below prayer requests:

 

PRAY:

·        That our time together will be blessed and that our ears will be open to listen to the Lord, our eyes open to see that the Lord wants us to see and we shall follow the Lord where he directs us.

·        That the 125 kids, who are coming to camp, will experience God's love in a deeper way and that they will have the best experience ever, experience deep love and friendship from work team and leaders and that those who are led by the spirit, will make a genuine committed to follow the Lord.

·        For more committed and Christ-center woman leaders for our ministry, for financial support and for leaders to listen and  follow God's call to serve young people in Liberia

·        That our time together will be a blessing to all the kids we will meet and the Lord will change their lives in incredible ways.

·        For outpouring of the Holy Spirit's presence with us

·        That the Lord will give us extra energy and boldness to share His word through love.

·        For the Lord to prepare and equip me to shepherd Young Life in West Africa.

·        That we will have good weather/and not heavy down pour of rain during our time together.

 

Thanks for using your precious time to pray for/with us.

 

In His love and Service,

James Davis
