Sharon’s 25

Posted by Ric and Sharon on Saturday, June 11th, 2011

photoAnother year has gone by and neither Sharon nor I are in our early 20′s anymore. :) We tried to make her first birthday in our new home special by learning Thai in the morning and then going out to eat at our local hospital food court with a bunch of our Thai friends.

June Requests

Posted by Ric and Sharon on Monday, June 1st, 2009

Our most pressing prayer requests this month:

  1. Wisdom and balance in taking "odd jobs" to offset the costs of linguistics as well as pay the bills. Striking a balance between "trusting God" and taking the opportunities He has given to work can be tough.
  2. For our internship with Trinity, that it would be a beneficial and strategic move.
  3. For balance in relationships with family, friends and supporters. There simply aren’t enough hours in a day
  4. For safety in travel as we head down to NTM’s Missionary Enrichment Conference in Missouri later this month. I (Ric) will be taking pictures for the conference and putting together a slideshow for the misssionaries to take home.
  5. Our largest financial need: Sharon heading to Oklahoma in the fall to study Cherokee. It will cost about 2,000 dollars.
