Retry

OK. Newby blogger here. Let's try that again, just in case you had a hard time reading that last excerpt.
"When people ask me how to pray for missionaries, I tell them they need to be remembered daily, because these kinds of stresses are everyday realities. Pray for the big things: that the gospel will advance through their efforts; that they will be sustained through loneliness; that the Lord will provide financial partnerships; and that he will protect them from illness and those who would do them harm. But also remember to pray for the everyday things: transportation to the market; strength to do tasks such as washing clothes and making meals, finding correct boundaries in relation to possessions and privacy, and enduring the stress of long periods of separation. Pray for the Lord to sustain their relationship with him and with one another. And particularly, pray for their children."
-Tommi Sitton
