> Several members of our team admit that their financial situation could cause burdens for them as they plan and prepare for this trip. The economy has hit our are of North Carolina hard, and especially those who have independent employment are constantly relying on God to provide for their families from one week to the next. The summer is the most profitable time for the local economy, and spending a week away from work is a huge sacrifice. Please, pray with us that these members of our team will continue trusting in God's provision and that they will be blessed beyond explanation because of their sacrifice.

> Most of our team members are parents, husbands and wives, etc. and many will be leaving behind their young children, spouses and other family, which can be a big emotional sacrifice. Please pray that those on our team who are making this sacrifice will be able to do so with joy, and that parents especially will be able to make adequate plans for child care during the week of our trip.

> Please, also pray that every partner of Nags Head Church will join our team in one way or another. Although only a small number have been chosen to go this time around, everyone can join the team through prayer and encouragement.

> Pray that the details for this trip will begin coming together. With eight months to go, there are still plenty of questions and details to confirm, both here in North Carolina and in France. Pray especially that our contacts in France will be given permission to allow us to perform the concerts in the city.

> Please, pray for the hearts and attitudes of those on the team, that the focus of this trip will be about obeying God and serving others, and that Satan would not be given opportunities to distract the team from their mission.
