Prayer Blog - 10/16/2008

Tonight, JTH, ALK, and I ate at the Apple Barn restaurant in Pigeon Forge. Amazingly, our waiter was the man that JTH described as a white B.D. Wong on our last visit to the restaurant on March 30th. (See the March 31st edition of "In Eckleburg's Eyes" for details.)

Tonight, we learned the man's name is Dion and he is a fellow Christian. He was saved eleven years ago at the age of 21. He served as a youth pastor for seven years and resigned because he felt he was more a teacher than a pastor and felt he was cheating his church. He asked for prayer as he seeks a new position.

He and his wife also are seeking to adopt a child. They already have one and are debating whether they have the financial resources to responsibly adopt another.

Please keep Dion, his family, and his job situation in your prayers.
