Phil & Andrea - August 2023

BAUMAN, PHIL & ANDREA  (Canada, International roles with SIM)    PRAISE/PRAY: For a good week being ‘missionaries of the week’ at a Elim Lodge and being able to have 10 different – mostly short speaking slots to highlight SIM’s Faithful Witness in Forgotten Communities initiative. That we have 2 weeks of vacation coming starting August 7 and that some of that time will be with our kids. Pray that we will get some rest and refreshment even though there are some work responsibilities Phil will need to do in the midst of those 2 weeks. That a colleague who works in the Middle East who is taking on the Personnel Coordinator role from Andrea. Pray for Andrea as she hands over responsibilities later in August. For the opportunity for Phil to take sabbatical following Board meetings in September. Pray for wisdom for him as he finishes up and hands off his current role. Andrea will continue on with her International role but will have some sabbatical time with Phil.
