This year has brought significant challenges as we’ve worked to get Toolbox teams on the ground. One team was fully prepared to travel to Northern India, but after the government issued a travel warning—and a team member became unwell—we had to make the difficult decision to postpone the trip.
Another team travelled to Northern Ireland and Scotland, and through that journey we gained a tremendous blessing: Amarachi, who has now joined us as Toolbox Coordinator. Her involvement has already strengthened the ministry in remarkable ways.
Our most recent team has faced its own set of obstacles. Training was completed just two weeks ago, but shortly afterwards one member had to withdraw. That left Esther leading, Tina stepping into the core team, and Jane Pirson joining as a team member. Even now, as we write, the situation remains uncertain. One team member is facing very difficult personal circumstances which may prevent them from travelling, and we are seeking clarity from God to discern whether the trip will need to be postponed.
From the outside, it may look implausible, impossible, and deeply contested. Yet we know this: God specialises in making a way where there seems to be none. We are believing that the team will reach Paraguay, and that He will turn what feels impossible into good for those who love Him.
Please Pray for the Paraguay Team
- Pray that they will be able to travel.
- Pray that their time will be blessed and fruitful.
- Pray that every difficult circumstance will be turned around for good.
- Pray that God’s purposes will be fulfilled as they step out in faith.
Toolbox teams remain central to who we are and what we do. This is a calling we must continue to pursue with courage and perseverance. We believe the Paraguay team will go in the autumn—so please keep them in your prayers.
