Prayer Request

We are having some major financial needs and we ask for your prayers to help us meet the deadlines imposed upon us. We also ask you to pray about a possible shift to another property. The monthly rent will actually be Rs 1000 less a month (Rs 15,000) than our current rent, but the property needs a lot of work. The best part is that we would no longer be in two buildings as we are now. And, the children would have a place to play. With our younger children, the neighbors are starting to complain. We cannot relocate until we settle our current debt. Our landlord has been so understanding and patient (until now). There are some draw-backs to the other property - there are water shortages in the winter, and it's quite cold.  And, it's near the chief minister's home. We have faith that God is in control, and has just the right solution for us in His perfect timing. In addition to the rent, we still have school tuitions to pay. Please pray that the right course will be made clear to us. Pray that we will be good stewards of what God has provided and will provide. 
Most of the kids are on a summer break this week. Christy is coming home from boarding school on Wednesday for ten days. Our newest helpers, Rachel and Sunil, have returned to Amritzar to introduce their daughter to her grandparents, aunts and uncles. Purnima, another helper, had to return to Assam, as her father went home to be with the Lord. He has been bedridden for the past six weeks. We rejoice that he is without pain, and in the arms of his Lord and Savior. Jerry is coming to help us prepare lunches in the mornings, praise the Lord. 
We covet your prayers for our current financial situation.
