Jon and Vicky
Hello! We are Jonathan and Vicky, and we live in North Africa. We continue with our language studies on a part-time basis, but alongside this, Jonathan is working on starting his business. With his Master’s in management and entrepreneurship he is hoping to begin a startup incubator/accelerator here, and is currently running a pilot training programme to that end. Vicky is slowly trying to build community with the local women, and has also been exploring nursing opportunities, specifically in palliative care, although she is open to all possibilities! Life here isn’t always easy, but the needs of the people are great. We ask that
we would always faithfully serve the One who has placed us here, and be the light in the darkness. Praise: 1. The month of fasting is over! 2. Vicky is gaining confidence with "F", their new house helper. 3. The pilot program is getting positive feedback 4. For "Y", the one consistent attendee to Jonathan's pilot program sessions. 5. Vicky's parents coming to visit! Requests: 1. For Jonathan's work; his program to train local entrepreneurs seems to be starting well, but has low attendance 2. For the 3 brothers who are attending the program to be more consistent and involved 3. Jon is looking for a language partner - ask that G would provide a teacher and friend. 4. Vicky is feeling discouraged overall by her language learning - pray for a breakthrough and more rapid progress, but also for G to use this to teach her dependence on his plan and his timing.
