COOL! Prayers Answered
1. Remember last month when I asked for prayer about moving to Austin and needing help packing, loading, and unloading my belongings? God put it on the hearts of many of you, and
* In Arizona, 20 people came out to help me pack and load
* In Austin, 10 people met the movers and helped me unload my things under the supervision of amazing friends.
2. God has provided an affordable car for me which is so helpful to get around the city!
3. GOD has answered your prayers for 100% funding by August. In fact, through the generous gifts of 103 individuals, I have been able to begin ministry August 8th full-time with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Thank you for your support!*
Let's Pray Together for these requests:
1. One burden I have is that the market in AZ seems to be slowing down, and my home has not received even one offer yet. Please pray with me that my home sells quickly and smoothly.
2. Pray for my transition to life in Austin - I really miss all the friends who are like family to me in Arizona. I'm also adjusting to living off campus for the first time, new schedules, a different standard of living, finding a good church home, making new friends, and having courage (and energy!) to take on new responsibilities.
3. Join me in praying that my mom, dad, sister and I will continue to support each other and grow closer together as a family.

Life is busy, so each day I take some time to myself, and while I pray throughout the day to God, I also have time to be still with Him in the evenings. It is amazing to pray with my team and read scripture before we begin planning/meetings. Thank you for sending me into ministry so that I can devote my life to the Lord in this way. You have made this possible.
God bless you and your family,
Wei Liew
