Frank and Josie* serve with Borderless, mentoring young men and helping at an English conversation class and a befriending programme. In their previous ministry, they’d reached a point where they still had lots to learn but also knew what they were doing. They now feel like they’re at the beginning of a new journey, and don’t know what they are doing! They consult with others, but each ministry works slightly differently. They can put a huge amount of energy into thinking of creative ways to do things and then they fail and it can be discouraging. There’s no manual for how to do this work! Pray they will remember God isn’t asking them to do this in their strength, but in His. Ask that he will help them to surrender their plans, ideas and hopes to him, acknowledging that they don’t know what they are doing but he does! Please ask that during this time of not knowing, they would pray, abide and listen carefully to his directions. There should be an English Conversation Club starting at Josie’s school about now.
