Prayer Request

Please pray for my friend Randy and his daughter Ana who are on this trip. Randy's father passed away last night in and while it was expected I can only imagine the emotion going through Randy, Ana and the rest of their family. Randy and I are in the same extension and he was the person I knew best on the trip. Here are a few things to pray for please:

Randy's father was not a believer to Randy's knowledge, his mother is praise the Lord but there are emotions involved there too about eternity. What a sobering reminder that being a good person will never be good enough, He is the only way to the Father.

Randy may be doing part or all of the ceremony which would be difficult, but my encouragement to him today was at least he would have full confidence that the full gospel would be presented for God's glory.

Randy and Ana will have a long day of travel ahead of them tomorrow. Randy was very grateful for the relative ease he had with the airline and their willingness to get him and Ana home. Pray for safety and smooth connections all the way to Alabama.

Ana, Zack, and Courtney have now lost their first grandparent, so I am sure that will not be easy for them. Randy has a large family so there are many children and grandchildren that will be dealing with the loss of a loved one over the next several days.

Thank you for you prayers, more updates tomorrow!

Blessings
