In his own words...

"Dear Friends and Family,
I am writing this to let you know that, effective immediately, I will be cutting myself off from computer use, including Facebook, Email and all general internet use.

I'm not sure how long I will be "gone". God willing, it'll be only two weeks.

God keep you,

~Josh


SIBERIA

I wanted to share with you an exciting announcement. Most of you already know, so this if for those of you you have not yet heard.

I have the opportunity to travel to Siberia in late march with a group from our church to reach out to the people there. We will be involved in work at an orphanage and with the drug addicted people inside the city. The first day we will be in Moscow, then we travel east from there to Novokuznetsk (500 miles north of where Mongolia meets Kazakhstan). We will remain for two weeks, I'm really looking forward to it.

Please pray that my visa will arrive on time with everyone else's. As my passport arrived later than the rest of the group.

The main purpose of this letter is to ask you for your prayers not only for me, but the entire team:

That God would work in our lives, and in the lives of those who we come into contact with.
For protection as we travel by plane, bus and car.
Financial provision for those of us still short a few bucks.

Your prayers would be most appreciated. I am excited to see what God will do there, in the locals, and in us.
