As cold waters to a thirsty soul,
So is good news from a distant land.
Proverbs 25:25

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, . . . "Your God reigns!"
Isaiah 52:7

Several requests for prayer from Fairbanks

Safe, healthy delivery of two new future co-workers: our second child, due in October . . . and . . . Matías and Kristine’s first, due in January! (And S and C's third, due in September.)

Effective ministry of U.S. Army chaplains at Fort Wainwright here in Fairbanks.

Salvation of LDS in Fairbanks (2 or 3 LDS buildings in the city).

Native Athabascan pastors to serve indigenous village churches. This has not yet been seen in Alaska. The obstacles are overwhelming, but so is the power of the gospel.

We long to see Thy churches full,
That all the chosen race
May with one voice, and heart and soul,
Sing Thy redeeming grace. (Watts)

Saturday we leave Fairbanks for two weeks in Anchorage, which will be our base for several meetings and a nearby pastors’ conference.
