Thanks a "latte" for your prayers!

This summer, I had the opportunity to share with many of you some highlights of the past year.  I am so blessed by your encouraging words, uplifting emails, and genuine interest in what God is doing at BFA.

As promised, here are some prayer requests for my students and me.  I'd so appreciate your prayers in the coming weeks as we begin the new school year on September 3!

Students ask you to pray that...
- They have safe travels back to Germany in two weeks
- Their transition from middle school to high school goes smoothly
- New students feel welcome
- Dorm students would communicate well with parents
- Departing students transition well into new schools/colleges
- They would have wisdom in the college application process
- Seniors lead well and set a good example for underclassmen
- They would all continue walking closely with Jesus

And I'd appreciate your prayers for...
- Safe travels back to Germany tonight
- A smooth move into my new apartment this week and making it "home"
- Unity for our new middle school staff team
- Creativity and energy as I prepare for the coming school year

It's hard to believe that I'll be in Germany only 24 hours from now!  I give thanks to God for a wonderful summer in the States.
