FBA Global Missions
&
FBA Family & Students Ministries
are teaming up during
our Summer Sundays in July
to highlight these
missionaries, as they share with
FBA's specific age
groups either by Zoom or video:
- Preschool & Kids - Tyler & Lara Patty, Czech Republic
- Middle - Dale Hoskins - Worldwide (Bible Translation)
- High - Brian & Ariel Dicks - Hungary
- College - Leah Rigsby - Papua New Guinea
Pray for these
special Sundays where our FBA children, students and young adults can learn
about God's heart for the nations from our very own
Faith Promise Missionaries!
********************************************************************
Sharing with FBA Middle
Dale Hoskins
Wycliffe Bible Translators
Worldwide
Dale serves with
the Seed Company, a Wycliffe affiliate that empowers nationals to translate the
Bible into their own language. He focuses on three types of translation: oral
Bible storying, oral Bible translation, and traditional Bible text translation.
He consults for a large language community in East Africa that knows little of
the Gospel and is antagonistic towards Christians. The believers in that region
and many seekers are eager to hear God’s Word clearly. Dale meets weekly with
translators over the Internet and spends about three months out of each year
working alongside them in Africa. He has recently extended his ministry to
include Asia as well. Carole serves in recruitment ministries for Wycliffe USA
and works on the team that responds to individuals making first-time inquiries
about serving with Wycliffe.
Prayer Requests:
- Pray for Dale as he
trains his team to translate Scripture to communicate God’s Word clearly and
powerfully.
- Pray for more
laborers for the harvest as Carole recruits and encourages people to share
God’s Word in their own language through Bible translation.
- Pray that their
sons, Carl, Joel, and Eric, will walk with the Lord as they live independently
and pursue their education and career goals.

PRAYER & PRAISE ~ July 13-19, 2022
7/13
Hugh & Joanne Roberson
Cru, USA/Asia
Please pray for their all staff gathering in
Milwaukee, WS, July 13-23, 2022; pray for the logistics and health of all staff
attending, for the hearts and communication of speakers, and for the breakout sessions. Pray especially for Hugh and Joanne
that God will use this time personally in their lives and ministry. This is
their first meeting as a whole group since the Covid outbreak in 2019!
7/14 Gary & Esther Smith
Ethnos360,
Papua New Guinea
Pray
for wisdom and grace for Gary as he works through challenges in ministry. Esther has received a good report that the acoustic neuroma
in her head has not increased in size the last seven months. Because her symptoms have not been severe, the doctors have given clearance to remain on the field for six months. Praise God for the language group, called Maliyali, which will begin hearing
the evangelistic chronological teaching for the first time in the coming weeks.
7/15
Sergio & Linda Mijangos
Avant
Ministries, Guatemala
Please
join in praying with the Mijangos for the following requests: that Linda’s
medication will prevent any side effects, that the Lord will bless this
treatment to completely heal Linda, for the options they are pursuing to
receive the treatment considered No. 1 for Linda, and for the Lord’s provision
for everything that is required in this journey.
7/16
T & A
Central
Asia
Pray
for T & A as they travel to Texas in late July and remain to early
September. Pray for them as they connect
with churches, care for T’s mom, connect and encourage their adult kids, and
welcome their first grandchild.
7/17
AIM – Adventures in Missions
FBA
- Lakeside
Pray
for our first “in-person” Adventures in Missions event since the pandemic! Greg and Pam Smith

Kathryn Wurst
CMF International, Germany
Pray
for Kathryn and her teammates as they travel to Tennessee for their annual
gathering with all the other Globalscope college ministers during July 17th-24th
(their first gathering since the pandemic began). Pray also as Kathryn finishes well with her small
groups and various roles as she transitions off the team.
7/19 Oli & Judy Jacobsen
Ethnos360,
USA/Asia
A
new Equip Asia class is forming for July 2022, and this time people from South
Africa will be added to the multi-national flavor of the class. We are asking
the Lord to bring in more students who will be able to join the EA course for
the upcoming school year.
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable,
always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.” I Corinthians
15:58 (NASB)

Praise Calendar is also available on fba.org/globalmissions
