Please pray for my sleep. I have been battling a sleep disorder for a few years now and would desperately like to be able to sleep a steady 7-8 hours each night. Even 6 hours! The past week has been particularly brutal, so some immediate relief would be welcome. Thank you so much!

Pray to heal Viola’s nasal cavity, as it is a desperate need due to brokenness, heal her emotional trauma, her grief, loss of a loved one, and loneliness and give her longer and stronger hair and a good night’s sleep, with millions of angels and a healing cup from Jesus, and pray for Magdalena’s healing of depression, and pray she has hair growth and a good night’s sleep and pray she gets her sense of humor back.

Please pray that our daughter Kristen and son-in-law Andy accept Jesus as their personal savior, and find a good church to attend in Moscow and become active practitioners of their faith.

Pray that our daughter continues to heal from a mental/emotional breakdown she experienced last month, and is blessed by all the prayers with a complete recovery.

Assure that our daughter’s friend in Atlanta, also accept Jesus as his personal savior, and become an active practitioner of his faith as well.

Please pray for our missionaries to Italy, Brent and Hope Harrell who sent the following updates and prayer requests:

• Thank you so much for praying for the youth camp. The Lord did a special work of encouraging and challenging the hearts of the kids. Please pray for continued grace for these kids as they seek to walk in the light and follow Christ. Pray against the snares, lies and temptations that the enemy wants to be keeping them in bondage to. Pray against self destructive behaviors such as cutting, eating disorders, turning to worldly solutions to soothe hurting emotions. Pray that the Lord will be strengthening this next generation to be using them for His glory in Italy!

• The Calvary Chapel European pastor's conference coming up in February. Pray for it to be an encouraging time for each of the pastors and others who will be present. Pray for our daughter Olivia who will be going to help serve and for our son Brayden who will be going with Brent. 

• Pray for healing for Maria's shoulder and for Lidia's health issues.

• Pray for Glauco's company to be paying him his wages. 

• Pray for Gianni and Nicole who have an important financial deadline that they need provision/direction from the Lord for.

• Please continue to pray for Hope's Aunt who is battling cancer.

• Pray for the Sunday School curriculum
