Prayers, please!

I had a couple of people recently mention to me that they liked how I included prayer requests on one of my previous posts.

So now I'm calling all you praying' folks out there and asking for your help with prayers for the youth ministry in the Iglesia San Lucas (Saint Luke's church). As you may remember I have been helping with this ministry since January, and it has become very near and dear to my heart.

We have a group of leaders (there are about 10 of us), and we have been working to really grow this ministry and reach out to the students in the Colegio San Lucas (Saint Luke's School). As of recently, we have begun having our reunions on Saturday mornings. The students in the secondary grades have weekly tests on Saturday mornings (How awful, huh? Tests on SATURDAYS?!?!) Anyway, the students stay after their tests and we play games, sing praise songs, and have small group time with different themed talks.  It's a HUGE challenge because it is such a large group (50 - 100 students), but every week things go a little more smoothly and I think our group of leaders is finally getting the hang of it.  

So, please pray for:
- The group of leaders. For patience, wisdom, enthusiasm
- The students from the school. For good attitudes, excitement
- The continued growth and success of the ministry
