Collins Family October 2018 Prayer Requests

Greetings from North Carolina.

Here are a few prayer requests:

1. Wes is finishing up work on a linguistics booklet for his CILTA classes that begin in early November. Pray that it is helpful to students, both now and into the future.

2. Pray for Mam Old Testament translation, led by Francisco and Byron. Progress has been good and the Word gets out in books, printed and preached Scripture and on the radio. May it prosper in people’s lives as well.

Dear and good friends,

Greetings from Lima, Peru. Happiest Easter to you all. He is risen.

I’m teaching a course in Phonology here at CILTA. Nancy isn’t with me this trip.

Just to catch you up a bit. I have eight students and a teaching assistant from Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, Honduras, and Mexico, from south to north.
