Merry Christmas 2007


Dear Family and Friends,

            As we take time to reflect on our past year, we have experienced too many blessings to mention, but here are a few of our favorites:

Everyone:  Having Stan’s parents visit for 2 weeks in February and going home for 3 weeks vacation in July!

Stan:

  • Baptizing new converts in a local river in Shell, Ecuador
  • Mentoring our Seminary students
  • Teaching and preaching at several evangelism events

Sherri:

  • Being a prayer partner with a Seminary student
  • Receiving the money for a new MAC the very week my PC died
  • Facilitating prayer for our field through a weekly prayer mailing

Mary:

  • Going to NYC (Nazarene Youth Congress) in St. Louis
  • Beginning High School and playing varsity soccer

Landon:

  • Playing with my cousins and riding roller coasters on vacation
  • Being a “brother” to our puppy, Mr. Snuggles (man’s best friend!)

We have so much to be thankful for, especially our family and friends who encourage us through so many different ways.  We love your creativity!

Current prayer request: Stan is the director of NILI (Nazarene International Language Institute) which begins in January 2008.  This is a study abroad Spanish program targeting university students.  Pray for his leadership and the many details.  Pray for the professors and the incoming students as well.

We still have dates available during our Home Assignment:  May through August 2008.   Call or email us if you’d like to schedule a service or event.

We love you, and pray God’s blessings upon you and yours, especially during this time of reflecting on the greatest gift of all—Jesus Christ, our Redeemer.

 

Stan, Sherri, Mary and Landon Hall
