Dear Team of Intercessors:

We hope you are doing well.  Thank you for praying for our meeting  
with the Head Teacher at the local primary school.  Our meeting went  
very well.  She is lovely and we like the school a lot.  The boys  
started last week and are getting to go for the final few weeks of the  
term in hopes of getting familiar with the routine and meeting some of  
their classmates.  They have all done very well so far and being a  
part of the school has been a natural connection to the community, for  
which we are thankful.  Thank you again for praying for them and us.

We are settling into the routine of living at Stanely House, the  
Paisley YWAM base, and are starting to relax a bit into the rhythm of  
life.  Corbin began his DTS last week as well.

So here is how you can pray for us these days:

1.  Strength and health, especially for Corbin, as he (and we) keep a  
very full, tight schedule each week.

2.  Grace for the kids as they continue to make the huge adjustment to  
being in school in another culture.  Pray they will be lights in the  
world.

3.  Pray for us to walk above the depression and hopelessness that is  
so prevalent here in Paisley.  It is a lovely place, with a godly  
heritage.  But all of that is covered up by quite a few layers of  
despair, frustration, and aimlessness.  As His children, we get many  
opportunities to shine in the darkness around us everyday.

4.  Strength, protection and blessing for Corbin and his class as they  
take their big hike for DTS.  It is a 4 1/2 day, 62.5 mile trek and  
camping trip along St. Cuthbert's Way to Lindesfarne, Holy Island,  
where St. Aidan founded a monastic community in the 7th century and  
converted much of the pagan Anglo-Saxons to Christianity.  It should  
prove to be an amazing experience.  They will be gone the 25th of June  
through the 3rd of July.  And pray for the kids and I as we stay  
behind at the house while the kids finish up the school year.

5.  Please take some time over the next few weeks to ask God about  
what he is wanting to do in/with us in this season.  We are being  
physically, spiritually, and emotionally challenged by the new demands  
we are facing.  As a result, we are seeing the need to mobilize our  
team of intercessors (that would be you) to be used more strategically  
in our lives and for advancing the Kingdom in this place.  We will  
following up more on this in the months ahead, but please give us any  
feedback God is sharing with you about us or Scotland.

Thank you for your time and commitment to pray.  We need the support  
very much and are honored to labor with you.

Sincerely,
Stacy and Corbin
