Praise the Lord! Stephen continues to enjoy good health. This is a wonderful
answer to many prayers. Please pray that he will have a good resistance to
infections during the winter.
• Pray that God will bless and use the thousands of training manuals and
visualized lessons.
• Pray for Sam as he continues to write a series of booklets for “teens,
twenties and teachers”. The first draft of the 12 booklets is complete. A
lot of work still needs to be done before they can be published. Prayerfully
they will start production in the early part of the new year.
