Chicago Trip Update
Posted by tom | Mar 18, 2008Dear Partners in Prayer,
Your prayers were greatly appreciated as Ellen was sick the whole time I was in Chicago for meetings with InterVarsity's Graduate & Faculty Ministry (GFM) and InterVarsity Press (IVP). Theresa pressed on w/grace, patience, and strength. Pray for Eden to overcome her current bout w/the illness which has swept through our family. Pray for both Theresa and myself to press on, by God's grace, through Holy Week . . . setting our eyes on and reflecting the hope/joy of Christ Jesus.
At the GFM team meetings, God surprised me with the presence of a staff prospect for Pittsburgh. We had a number of good conversations. Pray for wise next steps in order that my April 16-19 visit to Pittsburgh may be used to maximal Kingdom advantage.
My time with InterVarsity Press (IVP) and Jim Sire were a great encouragement. Pray for an increased partnership in ministry between IVP and InterVarsity's campus ministry. Pray for Jim's final preparations for his April 1-5 tour of central PA. Pray for his visit to be a blessing to faculty, students, and the larger Christian community. Pray for focus as I finalize details for his visit, including several site visits this week.
In Christ, Tom
