Ups and Downs of Business in Central Asia

One of our friends, Melody, is currently in Central Asia working with a small business venture. She writes of various joys and trials she is experiencing in her 2nd home. Relationships bring depth and richness to her life... and disappointment, at times. Supplies are running low and a trip will be taken to a neighboring country for restocking. (Yet another culture to learn about!) Local women are gaining skills in the trade, and one has excelled to such a degree that she will be able to train others.

Please pray for Melody in these areas:

-Wisdom in directing this business
-Continued favor in the local community and with families of those working in this business
-Safety in travel to pick up more supplies
-Good business contacts in-country, in the US, and around the world
-Protection with regard to abusive phone calls
-A partner to share in the work
-New believers and the challenges they face in pressing on, wisdom in practicing their faith, and for growth.
