Prayer Requests

Thanks to those who have been following my adventures and praying!
Here are some requests as we finish up the last two weeks before Christmas.

Please pray:
-for energy and that God would sustain us to continue to teach well and we would be well rested
-for health (parasites, chicken pox, and the flu are plaguing the group right now)
-for patience (every day with the children, with the copy guy, with administration, with each other; pray that we can give each other grace and speak peaceful words of encouragement that lift each other up)
-for wisdom (we have a lot to fit in the last days of the Partial and need to figure out how to make sure we teach it all; also for wisdom in making decisions about Christmas Program and how to manage the classroom during this hectic time)
-for true joy and perseverance (that we would look to Christ as the source of our joy transcending circumstances, that we would remember God has a purpose for us here, and that we would continue to fight the good fight all the way until we have a break)

Here is a list of my students. I'd really appreciate prayer for each of them, especially during this Christmas season where we are all reminded of God's gift to us:
