UPDATE: Thank you to any of you who might have read this message and said a prayer. He did a SUPER job. God was with him!! So so proud of my amazing husband and thankful for a God who listens and answers!
It's late Saturday night. Tomorrow 'Pablo' is preaching......
Tomorrow 'Pablo' is preaching in SPANISH!!
So please if you will pray for him. Pray for those listening to understand him and take something away from his message that they can use to grow as a Christian (or become one). Please stop and just say a prayer if you will for him and for the congregation who will be hearing him!!! I'm so proud of him and I know he'll do a great job. he's sure put a lot of effort and heart into it!!
PS if you are reading this blog and wonder why on earth I call my husband 'Pablo' and then you wonder if you are reading about the right person because well his name is nothing like that in our North American life. Well true. It's not. But his first year coming here he didn't think on his feet quickly enough when asked his name to give the Spanish translation of his name. All he was thinking is that there are parts of his name North American name that's not easily pronounced in the Spanish language because the sounds don't exist.
So instead he went with the translation of his middle name which he knew easily....'Pablo' and it stuck. He soon realized the Spanish translation for his first name, but by then he was already 'Pablo' to friends, taxi drivers, etc Then for the blog we like to not plaster our given names all over, just seems wiser. So it works for that too.

Phil led a prayer for him during Shepherd's Moment and then he was mentioned in two more prayers during worship. See Thad tomorrow and you on Tuesday! I'm not surprised that he did a SUPER job!
