Kaiser back in US; prayers continue
Greetings! Thanks so much for your prayers while I was in Sierra Leone the past three weeks (I arrived back in the US on Friday). God kept me healthy, and kept me safe as I travelled the 200 miles up to Kono District and back. Here are some items from the trip to pray about:
1) Thank God that I was able to take copies of the newly-printed translation of the gospel of Luke up to Kono District. Please pray that these will be widely read, and that God will use his word in the hearts of many Kono people.     2) Pray that the printing of the gospels of Matthew and John might go smoothly so that they also will be available for use.     3) Thank God for the good work and progress that Komba Ngekia, the Kono translator, has been making. Please continue to pray for his motivation, health, and safety (and that of his family).     4) Pray for Kono church leaders. Pray that God would open their eyes to the value of having the Bible available in Kono, and would motivate them to be involved in helping to complete the translation, and in preparing their churches to make use of it. Thank you for being willing to pray. Each trip I make, I see more and more how important your prayers are in completing this translation project. May God bless you!
