    4.  Protection for missionaries, seminary students, and 
          pastors living in Mexico from the heightened violence 
          stemming from the illicit drug trade and the  
          government's efforts to stop it

   5.   Safe travels and continued health for missionaries and 
          families, as well as for our national students and pastors

   6.  Understanding and wisdom for professors as they teach 
         and train by word and example

   7.  Dedication and faith for the students as they dig deeper 
         into God's Word to be able to share it with their 
         countrymen

   8.  Good government and good weather

In an effort to offer theological education in even more areas -- without additional travel -- we are slowly offering more long distance education over the Internet.  We must reformat the material and change our methodology to fit into a "virtual" classroom environment.  We request you prayers for the Lord's success in this area also.
