BABY SHIN

Dear Partners,

Our family is growing... with a baby Shin on the way! We're excited to share this news with you and to ask for your prayers over the upcoming months as we prepare for our new addition in October.

Naomi has been feeling a bit better the last few weeks, although is still low on energy. Please pray for a dependence on God in this time, particularly during our Summer Internship which begins on 6th June 2022.

Naomi has been getting more speaking opportunities, including helping pre-college students think through what they should be looking for in a church when they get to university.

Our church has just had a "Together Weekend," where we were able to learn about God's community and why this gift is so amazing. Especially after lockdowns and social distancing, it was a welcome time for all of us to reconnect in person with our church family.

Love,
Naomi and Daniel

Intern Final Preparation Training

AT3 Update

It's not long now until our Summer Internship is underway. Twelve US interns and two UK interns are coming to the end of their training and preparation for the summer and are just excited for what God has in store for them. Please pray for our final preparations, local UK leaders who will be hosting interns and the interns as they are sent out.

In April, we had our director's retreat. This was an amazing time of building community within our team, who all live in different cities across the UK and US. We were also able to spend time learning from UK leaders, and using this to pray and think through our strategy and goals in raising up more indigenous leaders over the upcoming years.

AT3 Prayer Requests

  • We are still waiting on most of the intern's visas to be sent back to them. Please pray that they all come back in time and for God's help in waiting patiently for his timing with this. Also, please pray for all the interns safe travel and that Covid will not be any obstacle moving forward.

  • Please pray for our ongoing discussions following the director's retreat. Pray for wisdom, direction and focus in moving forward with our goals to help raise more British ministry leaders.

  • While overseeing the internship can already be stressful, we thank the Lord for bringing on new AT3 staff. Please pray for Naomi to trust in the Lord in running the internship especially during her pregnancy.

  • We're always amazed that we have interns who are willing to give up two months to serve the Lord. Please pray that the interns will be open to whatever God has called them to in future ministry.

Prayer Requests

  • Please pray for us as we prepare to be parents. Please pray for a healthy pregnancy, and a healthy baby.

  • We have started praying for specific people every day, and have found this to help us focus on God and have in mind the people around us. If you have anything we can pray for, please let us know.
