The Enemy is Attacking - Greater is He That is in Us . . .

This is a brief SITUATION REPORT' for the purpose of gathering fervant prayer; I know most of you are are willing to do spiritual battle on behalf of the church in Ireland and I am very grateful for each of you.

The Irish Bible Institute in Dublin is an outstanding training ground for future church leaders and is led by a very gifted man named Jacob. He and his wife Lori have been experiencing attacks of the enemy for several years now via the health of their 17 year old daughter, Ailish. She has been battling cronic fatigue syndrome since at least 2003 and is now no longer able to be in school.

Jacob is also an elder in the church plant in Ballycullen (SW Dublin) where we are attending for this first year. We just learned on Friday, that Jacob & Lori's oldest child, Kieran, has now been diagnoses with glandular fever (mono). He (Kieran) is 19 and doing an important intership at our church and is being used to assist with key youth related outreach projects, among other things.

Please do battle on behalf of Jacob and Lori through intense prayer on behalf of their children; it seems that mono was how Ailish's CFS began. Pray that Kieran will recover quickly and that Ailish will be encouraged and get well. Pray for spiritual and physical strength for this key leader and his family. They also have twin 12 year old daughters and are very tired - they need their spiritual family around the world to hold them up to the great physician. Thank You So Very Much.
