For those of you who are keeping track of names: sitting in the foreground of the picture is Matthew Patenaude. His family has been working with our family since our return. They currently are making plans to return to the U.S. for a furlough. Next to him on his left is Ulzee (you can't see her face but that's her) and then her husband Ganpurev. Sitting next to him is Bilgee whom you can't see at all because he is sitting in a low chair. Buren is sitting in the corner, and you can only see his ear and sweater. His daughter Chimgee is sitting next to him, and on her left sits Kristie whom you all should recognize. Sitting next to Kristie in the green top is Bayambaa, an artist who saw our "Bible lesson" sign when it was in storage and decided to come. She has come faithfully for about a month now. Next to Bayambaa on the couch are Dagvaa and Gasraa. They are two of my English students who came for the first time. Please pray for their salvation and that they would come again. Both listened to the lesson intently and said that they would come again. Of course, we hear that many times and yet the person who said they would come fails to come. In fact, three other people who attend sometimes said that they would come today but were unable to make it. Last, there is a person sitting whose face you basically cannot see at all. He is another missionary who recently returned to Mongolia from a furlough. His name is Roland Gay.
Please pray for direction as some important decisions face us in the next few months. We need another place to meet and are praying for a place that would be convenient for the Mongolians to find public transportation so they can attend. Also, with the Patenaudes leaving, there are several other missionaries who have offered to help us. We need wisdom in the decisions that we will make. We know that your prayers will make a difference!
