Pray For Our Missionaries/Ministries
Dale & Sara Lusk serve the Evangelical Covenant Church as administrators and coordinators for short term teams to minister around the world. They assist in developing healthy relationships between Covenant Churches and international ministry sites. Dale is the International Director for Global Engagements in the Evangelical Covenant Church.
- Praise for our Merge Invite trips encouraging and connecting churches in North America with Global Engagement opportunities around the world. Praise we are having more teams of individuals, couples, and families sign up for these trips in 2024 than we expected. We thought UNITE would cause churches to decline participation in these trips but that has not happened. Praise for successful 2024 Merge Invite trips to Mexico, Costa Rica, and Ecuador. Pray as we look forward to trips to Nicaragua, Sweden, Thailand, Costa Rica and possibly India and Kenya in the next months. We are very encouraged.
- Pray for attempts to reconstruct our Africa Coaching team. This has been difficult.
- Pray for successful travels to Jamaica to restart our partnerships there. We also envision restarting partnerships in Peru, Brazil, Spain and expanding efforts to the Philippines, Uganda, and Albania.
- Pray for my leading of a new discipleship venture for Serve Globally of the Evangelical Covenant Church and for future participation from ECC
- Pray for the avoidance of surgery for our daughter, who suffers from scoliosis. Presently, she wears a back brace and is receiving physical therapy.
- Pray for our special needs son, who struggles to learn how to read.
Send Dale & Sara a word of encouragement dale.lusk@covchurch.org.
