One week to go

Hello to you all.
This is my last week in Canberra before I leave for Nepal.  I still have much to plan.  Prayer cards were emailed out this morning so if you did not receive one and would like to be added to the list please email me at awirtitsch@gmail.com or anji59@gmail.com. 

An update:  Last week I caught up with the team "Educate Nepal" in Sydney.  It was sad to learn that the 2 teachers that were to join us from Nepal had their visa's declined.  We are yet to find out from immigration as to why their visas were rejected.  It would have been a wonderful opportunity for these two teachers to experience Christian education at a good Christian School.  It was not to be.

The Aussie contingent got together and spent the day planning and preparing for the upcoming trip.  On Sunday dear Agnes and I worked on the training material for the Introduction to Christian Teaching and came up with a plan.  I give thanks that she is prepared to do the ground work so that I can organise other things that need to be completed.  I pray all will be accomplished in due course.

Please pray for the city of Christchurch, New Zealand and the people there.  This includes my family and friends who were at 4.30am this morning woken up to a massive earthquake of 7.4 on the rector scale.  They are ok and casualities are light on. 

Please pray that the work the team and I will be undertaking in Nepal and that it will be according to God's calling.  I give him the glory and thanks for this awesome opportunity.

God bless you all
My next update will be in Nepal
