Praying for the Hintons

This is a picture of our Sunday School teacher and his family.  Brian, Heather, Laney and Daniel are preparing to take London by storm!  They are going on a family mission trip to London for two weeks in July.  Brian is a lawyer, but is pursuing a call into ministry.  He is attending Beeson Divinity School at Samford University.  Heather is a stay at home mom who devotes her life to her children and teaching them about Jesus.  She is passionate about the Lord and it shows in all she does for her family.  We have had the opportunity to be in a small group with them recently and have come to appreciate them even more!  I personally cannot imagine taking my children on an international flight and staying all 4 of them in one hotel room without any of our "stuff" from home.  This must truly be God telling them to go!! 

For the first week, Heather and the kids will be hanging out in parks and playgrounds doing what moms and kids do best!  She will use this time to talk to other moms and/or nanny's about what they believe.  This will be an unbelievable opportunity that most mission trips aren't able to do because they don't usually involve the kids!  Brian will spend that week doing prayer walking around the city and engaging the people of the city.  The second week, they will move locations and host a "bible school" for the kids where they are located.  This is sure to be a life changing event for their family.  Please join me in prayer for this sweet family as they live out the Great Commission!
