Thank God...
*Pastor Ayman has persevered and is about to finish his dissertation to graduate on August 21.
*He is giving us opportunities to encourage our supporting churches this summer, as many face intense challenges. On June 30 we give an update at New Covenant Bible Church in Cedar Rapids, IA. On July 21 we will visit Fremont Community Church in Fremont, CA, then Calvary Church Los Gatos on the 28th, and Rick will preach at Church on the Hill in San Jose on Aug 4.

Please Pray...
*Pray that Pastor Ayman's research will strengthen Christian Egyptian marriages. Over 77% of wives counseled experience abuse but only 3 of the 25 couples surveyed admit it happens in their marriages.
*Pray as we crisscross the USA visiting churches and supporters that we will encourage others as we share what God is doing in Jordan.
*Pray that God will hold back the powers of darkness that threaten and discourage: marriages in Egypt, many within our supporting churches
