A need for prayer...
There is a missionary family in Benin (West Africa) for whom I would like you to pray. We've only met Barbara twice, but each time has been more than memorable. She's touched the lives of so many and has made a permanent impression on me. If you ever have the chance to hear her speak, RUN to it. She spent time with us at our women's retreat last year while she was on an extended leave, and I still look through her study notes. I receive email updates on their work in Benin through their prayer network email list, and in the latest one she shared that their two dogs - both pet and protection - passed because they were poisoned. Please pray for the Singermans and their heartache but also for their protection, and that this is not a threat that will be taken farther. It sounds like they have extra guards on duty around their home, but they have been attacked and robbed in the past so prayers for protection are always a good thing.
Thank you!

I will pray for them. So sad about the dogs. The "kitten bible study" we go to is hosted by a lady who used to be a missionary in africa. She lost the use of her legs (and lost her DH sadly) in an accident there. Missionaries go through so much danger and yet they keep trying to do good work. It's inspiring that's for sure.
