The James Family

Hello from Bolivia.

Yesterday our La Paz SIM teammates and good friends Scotty and Lisa Miser lost their baby. I wrote you 2 weeks ago explaining that he was born preemie -- 30 weeks, and around 3lbs. After struggling with infections and breathing complications for 19 days, his body couldn't resist the strain. Scotty and Lisa are mourning -- please pray for them during these difficult days. Yesterday they held a funeral service, and it was deep testimony to their neighbors and unbelieving friends of the hope we have in Christ.

Thank you for your prayers,

Kep

We'd like to ask you to pray for the newborn old son of our La Paz teammates, Scotty and Lisa Miser. Zion Miser was born premature one week ago, and he is having complications.

We would value your prayers for strength and growth for him (especially for healing of the hole in his lung), peace for Scotty and Lisa, and wisdom for the doctors.

Thank you,

Kep and Debbie

• Pray for the ESI (Equipping Servants Internship) participants throughout Bolivia and in Oaxaca, Mexico. Currently we have 523 active participants involved in weekly training, and 325 graduates since we started ESI in 2002. Please pray that many churches will be transformed as pastors and church leaders learn to honor Christ by being true to His Scriptures as they dedicate time to study God’s Word.

• Pray for ESI Expansion as we pray and work toward starting ESI in different places around Bolivia and South America. We are hoping to start ESI in the Bolivian city of Santa Cruz soon, and are planning to send PA Tomas Diaz and his wife Nancy and their 2 children to Loja, Ecuador in 2011.
