Dear Friends,
Below is my quarterly update to the guardian. We covet your prayers for the next 6 months as our battalion prepares to deploy in February. Pray that I may be diligent in all that I do so that I may make the word of God attractive. Aimee and I are taking a little vacation this memorial day weekend. Pray that we may be refreshed. By the way, our battalion's website is up and running, check it out at http://www.iimefpublic.usmc.mil/1bn9mar
Thanks again for your partnership with me in this ministry. Semper Fidelis !
Cristiano DeSousa
Changes in family status:
Aimee is doing well. She will be visiting St. Louis in the upcoming weeks.
Future ministry highlights:
I have had the opportunity to preach the gospel during many devotional times with my Marines. They are very receptive to the Word of God. I am planning ways to provide devotional and counseling opportunities to the Marines while they are in the field.
Specific prayer requests:
Pray for my relationship with my new Commanding Officer. Pray for my wife Aimee and I and our desire to have children. Pray that many Marines and Sailors would come to faith in Jesus Christ. Pray that I may do it with deep conviction, and in the power of the Holy Spirit. I need wisdom from God. Pray that he will grant it to me and protect me from the evil one.
What assistance does your ministry need?:
Prayer for the families in my unit. Marines bibles Books for newly weds on marriage to serve as a resource to them.
