Prayer List May 29 06'


Departure Preparations
Russian Visa's
A new law that is being enforced requires us to have very specific blood tests done. We weren't informed of this till recently. In order to get our visas in time we need the test results mailed to CCCPM office in Oceanside CA by this Thursday. Due to Memorial day the Labs are delayed. Pray they will get the results to us quickly, so we can in turn overnight them to Oceanside.
Wisdom in packing
As we decide what to take and what to leave to either ship later or to store here.
Language learning
