Here we are in sunny
Lahore enjoying the warmth but not the flies which keep buzzing me as I type.
We are now staying with Esther for three days, before we go back to Qaiser's
for the last few days. Last night Andy spoke in a tent meeting in a village on
the edge of Lahore. There were more than 250 people there and God moved with
power. We were accompanied by 30 young men on motorbikes, some 3 to a bike!
This morning I had the joy of speaking to the daily morning ladies' meeting,
and Andy and I prayed for many sick ones. I will be teaching the second part of
the message tomorrow morning. Andy will be preaching again tonight, but he is
having trouble finding time to prepare as people keep coming to the house for
prayer for their families, which is great, but distracting.
Keeping control of our schedule is somewhat difficult as plans are continually
changed by others, leading to problems with overlap. Please pray that we are
able to do what God wants rather than what man thinks is good. We are trying to
fit in all we can though. This Friday we will not be able to do anything as
there is risks of trouble for all the communities due to a Shia Muslim holy
day, but we will still have Saturday and Sunday to work.
We are both well, but taking care of what we eat and drink. Thank you for
praying. We feel your support.

Update from the Turnbulls in Pakistan
Here is the latest news from Andy and Heather in Pakistan. They have had problems so far with emails but managed to get this one out this weekend:
Heather has not been well and I have had to leave her in Lahore for the weekend to recover fully. I am in Raiwind which is currently hosting a Shia Muslim conference with 2.5 million Muslims being stirred up for Jihad and gun fire in the air, but is not stopping us meeting and preaching in the local churches. I have just finished one session (midnight) and have two meetings tomorrow (Sunday). We are seeing God move in the Pastors meetings, with a fully understanding of scripture producing changes in lives and ministry, and also in the church meetings where we have seen healings and salvation.
Please pray for Heather's full recovery and for spiritual strength for us both as we enter into the busier second week.
