How I know God Answers Prayer, Rosalind Goforth

 

I will be gone for three weeks in Asia with our Missionary Brother Tom Gaudet.  So our updates will stop until I return.  Will you please pray for us while we are out?  Some things to pray for:

 

          For safety – several places have had trouble with anti-American sentiment

          Appointments with the right people – some do not know we are coming

          Look at the issues surrounding the Cebuano Bible translation, seek possible alternatives

          An Indonesian Pastor who may be going with us to East Timor

          Follow-up in Timor

 

It is because of intercessors that our efforts will be successful.  If you find information about Cuba please send it my way so we can inform others.  This article was sent by a Pastor here in Fort Worth:

 

 

Cuba Cracks Down On Web Access
(AP) Cuba is tightening its control over the Internet, prohibiting Internet access over the low-cost government phone service most ordinary citizens have at home under a new law announced Friday.

The move could affect hundreds, perhaps thousands of Cubans who access the Internet without authorization from their homes, using computers and Internet accounts that have been borrowed or purchased on the black market for as much as $50 for 80 hours a month.

Most Cubans do not have authorized access to the World Wide Web, although many can access international e-mail and a more limited government-controlled intranet at government jobs and schools.

Some physicians and key government officials are among the few Cubans authorized to use the Internet from home. According to the new law, those Cubans authorized to use the Internet must now seek additional approval to use the service on the nation's regular phone service, which is charged in Cuban pesos.

The decree passed late last year states that Internet service, already heavily controlled by the communist government, can be used only with a more expensive telephone service charged in U.S. dollars. The dollar service is prohibited to most Cubans and is typically used by foreign firms and individuals.

Please continue to pray for these.  Take a few minutes everyday, dedicated to only this, and seek God’s face on behalf of the Cubans.
