Prayer update:

Here are some things to be praying about:

  • The flooded out people of Iowa. I work for a carpet cleaning/flood restoration company and have seen some pretty bad/sad situations. Most of the people I interacted with were facing thousands of dollars of damage with no insurance. Pray that the Church would rise up in this situation for the glory of God.
  • Safety in our travels. We are logging MANY miles and hours on the road.
  • Open doors to present our ministry. This fall is going to be a crucial time for us and we need the Lord to open doors. Right now we still have a lot of open weekends.
  • Both Teresa and I are working with young/brand new believers. Continue to pray for their growth and our patience.

Thank you all and we love and appreciate you. Please, if you have any needs and would like us to be praying for you send us an email: thebairs@brazilbairs.com

Highlights

Hi everyone! I hope all is going well. I was hoping to send out a video update instead of a written one this month… but as you can see that got postponed…. Anyway, March was a great month. We traveled to a church in Indianapolis, along with two churches in Iowa. We had unique opportunities in all of these churches to encourage and be encouraged. We are really enjoying pre-field ministry. Here are some of the highlights of March:

  • Our oldest son, Nathaniel, decided on his own that he wanted to trust in Jesus as his savior and become His follower! Sufficed to say, mom and dad were pretty excited. We celebrated by going out for ice cream. Seeing that trusting in Jesus brought ice cream, our middle son, Jackson, promptly wanted to get “saved” as well… we are still working through that one :) .
  • We saw many people make decisions at First Baptist Church of Beech Grove after the morning message…it was exciting, humbling, and we’re thankful!
  • Every Tuesday night I lead a bible study at a dormitory at a local community college. Last week a young man named Jason placed his trust in Jesus!
  • Two weeks ago I started an evangelistic bible study with a young engaged couple. I am really excited to see where this leads. The guy is a believer but his fiancée is not, although she is very interested in spiritual things.
  • Owen had unexpected outpatient surgery on Monday. God was very good and everything turned out great! You know its a successful surgery when the doctor says, “That was fun!”.
  • I (Teresa) had the privilege to attend a pastor’s wives retreat. God knew just what I needed- to be challenged and encouraged in the midst of our unpredictable life!
  • Thank you for your prayers for Jackson. God is definitely answering them as we see him adjusting more smoothly.

Prayer requests

  • We are flying out to California next month to meet with 8 different churches. Pray that God raises up some of these churches to partner with us.
  • Continue to ask God to strengthen our faith as we try and follow (er.. keep up with) Him.
  • Please pray for evangelistic opportunities for Teresa. She is able to keep up with her mentoring relationships, but it is getting more difficult find opportunities to get out and ‘rub shoulders’ with unbelievers.
