Hi!
Thank you to all who have given financial support and are praying for me and the team. God uses prayer in mighty ways! I can tell God has been and is preparing my heart to love the people of Ecuador and share the gospel with them and serve however God calls me to in Ecuador (and when I return from Ecuador). With 74 days left before we go, I wanted to give you a few prayer requests:
1. for God to increase my love for him, my teammates, and the people of Ecuador. I have a tendency to get task-oriented and miss the relational and loving aspects of things, so prayer in this way would be much appreciated.
2. for the team - we have two webinar trainings together before going to Ecuador, otherwise I have only met/know two of the other people on the team. Please pray for effective training and for immediate unity and love for one another when we meet. Jesus said the world will know we are his disciples by how we love one another. My prayer is that our team would be so unified, loving, and humble toward each other that outsiders would be drawn to God and be amazed to find out we didn't know each other ahead of time. 
3. God has faithfully provided financial support thus far, and I know He will provide the rest, but still please pray for the remaining funds to come in. 

Thank you for your support and investing in God's kingdom.

With thankfulness and love,
Hannah
