Dear Pastors and Friends,

          The past few months have been a whirlwind with candidate school, packing, traveling, and saying goodbye to friends and family. We arrived in Athens August 4th at 6pm, and went right to work at a youth camp early Monday morning. God blessed, and I didn't have jet lag. I got to speak to the teenagers twice. It was a blessing to be able to challenge them to stay close to the Word of God. Most of the kids were from America so it was good for me to be able to start off with an English service.

          We have found a doctor for Cristina. The Lord blessed and he speaks English so I'm not left out. He said that so far everything is good. Please pray that God will ontinue to bless her pregnancy and pray also that the Lord will provide the funds for the doctors and delivery here.

          Please pray for us as we get settled in and begin ministering to the people to whom God has called us. Pray that he will give us some divine appointments with people that have an open heart.

Serving together for His glory,

James and Cristina Sinde
