Prayer for Tab's Summer 2011

Hey readers!
Here's a quick 3 point update of my life... (HBSP, NST & Personal) read with caution :)

Hampton Beach Summer Project:

I just returned from a summer project trip to New Hampshire (with 24 students and 14 staff) where I...
  • ...discipled 3 student women (Lauren from Salisbury U. in Maryland, Julie from Towson U. in Maryland, Alison from Virginia Tech) on what it means to live by faith in the power of the Holy Spirit.
  • ...trained one of the small servant teams of our students on how to plan and put together a weekly meeting (kinda like a church service)
    • The other groups were prayer team, evangelism team, community team, etc.
  • ...shared my faith on the beach & taught my students how to do so in a variety of fun ways!
Prayer Request:
The staff left after training and teaching and now all the students have taken leadership roles and run the ministry in NH for the last 5 weeks of the project without staff! This is where I feel like Paul, leaving those who I've helped train in the faith and entrusting them to God to lead the movement where they are. Please pray for me to let go and allow the Lord to work on their lives. And pray for the students to work well together so that their love for one another may be shown outward to those who don't yet know Jesus Christ.


Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC) National Staff Conference

I will be leaving for Colorado next Monday for our National Staff Conference (which happens every two years)
  • It's a refreshing time for staff to be poured into and relax with our main speaker, Francis Chan
  • I'll also be updated on what's happening around the world with Campus Crusade for Christ! :) (probably my favorite part)
  • Lastly, I'll be informed on any changes CCC is making and trained in new ways to advance God's kingdom within my field (college students)
Prayer Request:
I will be with over 6000 other staff at Colorado State University in Ft. Collins, CO. Please pray for my flight and for how I manage finances while I'm there.


ALSO PRAY...

Driving, as always. Almost 100,000 miles!
  1. I am planning to move by August 1st to an apartment I have not yet found in Jersey City. This will be a lot closer to all the campuses I work on, making travel easier throughout the school year. Please pray that I can find a place with my roommate, Krystal, ASAP and move when I return on the 27th of July.
  2. Many people on my support team have been relocating, changing careers, or just need to lower their financial gifts. Due to the expenses of the summer project I worked and the National Staff Conference (NST) I will attend, my staff account will be taking a pretty significant hit really soon. The Summer Project (SP) cost is $1500 and I've paid $500 so far. I have saved over the last two years for the NST, so that should not hurt my finances when it's being taken out my staff account. But please pray that I raise the rest of my support, plus the expenses of the Summer Project before the school year starts at the end of August. Please pray people are moved with compassion and give generously.
Thanks again for all your love and support.

In His love and care,
