On the road (and in the air) with the Larsens this Summer!
Dear praying friends and partners in mission,
We rejoice in all that God is doing through the work of GYFM! There is a lot going on over the next 2 months and we need your prayers. In our experience, spiritual warfare seems to increase around these key opportunities for kingdom impact. We love the ministry we get to do, but know the stress and strain takes it's toll. Please pray that God protects, strengthens, and sanctifies us through the intensity of the next two months. Pray that many lives will be touched and God's world mission advanced. Thank you for partnering with us to reach the nations and the next generation with the gospel!
