Greetings from cold and wet Domodossola!

The past couple of weeks we have had quite unseasonably cold and wet weather – with only short breaks of sunshine. This has forced us to cancel our first two weeks of “Bible Stories in the Park”. Our plans this year are to do the Bible Stories each week on Wednesday, with Thursday as a back-up in case of poor weather.

The forecast for tomorrow, and for Thursday are not at all good. They are calling for the likelihood of rain, and at best for cloudy and cold weather with the ground all wet. Could you pray that tomorrow is sunny and warm instead – enough so to dry off the ground in time for the Bible Story? We really would like to get started with the Bible Story meetings.

Pray also for a friend from the ambulance house who took a “6000 Points for Heaven” DVD this past Saturday. He has said he will watch it and let me know what he thinks. This DVD gives a clear presentation of the Gospel message. Pray that he follows through with his plans to watch it and that the Lord uses it to speak to his heart.

We have a couple (Ryan & Jackie) with us now who are spending six weeks in Italy on a vision trip. They will be visiting with different Crossworld missionaries, observing the ministry and Italy in general, and helping as they are able. Pray that the Lord would use this trip to help them discern His plans for their future and what part Italy might play in those plans.

Thanks so much for your prayers!

His Servants,

Scott & Sharon MacLean

Thank you for praying for our “Bible Stories in the Park”. Wednesday afternoon the sun came out and dried everything up. And while the weather was still a little cool, we were still able to have the Bible Story! The was a small turnout of kids with their parents. Although, I think we had all the kids that were in the park come over for the story. I also had a great conversation about the Gospel with a lady at the park. Pray that the seed sown will bear fruit. And keep praying for good weather and good turnout for the Bible Stories, especially on Wednesday mornings (11 am east coast time/5 pm here is when we have club).
