Urgent prayer request

Church family, prayer partners, PLEASE join us in praying for negative Covid tests for our boy’s teachers. One or more of them is exhibiting symptoms of Covid, and our three youngest boys have been exposed. The staff here is hoping to hear back about the testing by the end of the weekend. If the results are negative, things will resume as normal next Monday. If anyone tests positive, our three youngest boys are to be in quarantine in our extremely small apartment until March 10th (two days before we are scheduled to fly back to Omaha). Elijah and Judah were not directly exposed and neither were we, so for the time being we do not have to quarantine, but that will likely change if the test comes back positive.
It goes without saying, we cannot imagine being quarantined in our tiny apartment for the next two weeks, and there are so many families here effected by this. It looks as if all but one family that are here with children are in the same boat as we are. It would also be a disaster if Covid started spreading on our campus, for so many reasons (political, logistical, etc). Please join us in prayer on your knees interceding on behalf of everyone here, that this testing come back negative! It is growing ever more clear that the enemy is hard at work to throw up every road block he can during this training, as it truly has just been one thing after another. We are weary and I, in particular, feel pretty defeated. However, we take heart knowing that Satan is on a leash. He cannot work outside of God's providence, as we see in Job. In fact, this week our session focus has been about spiritual warfare, God's providence, Satan's limitations and the Lord's triumph over darkness.  How timely. This spiritual battle we find ourselves in the midst of will bring glory to God as he proves once again how his timing and ways are perfect, despite how the outcome appears to us.

Thank you for loving us well with your prayer support.
