Updates from Egypt:

1. The ring is together, although it took all day to do. It is structurally sound; their only concerns are the wood planks, since they were unable to use ones long enough to stretch the entire length of the ring as they normally would. Instead they had to use smaller ones and piece them together to cross the ring. Additionally, where the turnbuckles are attached to the ring posts were not fully welded. Supposedly someone is coming to do that (they hope). Please continue to pray for the ring’s performance and use.

2. It is possible that the guys may now be given 1 hour and 15 minutes to rest between wresting shows, but that is not certain. It might still be only 30 minutes. Prayer would be appreciated for this as well.

3. Prayer is requested for those who are preaching at their shows:

Day 1 — Friday in Egypt — Show #1 Rob is preaching; Show #2 Cory is preaching (first time to preach)
Day 2 — Saturday in Egypt — Show #1 Ron is preaching (first time); Show #2 Randy is preaching (first time)
Day 3 — Sunday in Egypt — Show #1 Seth is preaching (first time); Show #2 Albert is preaching

4. Most of the guys will also be giving short testimonies at some time. Please pray for what they will share during those times.

5. They are using translators, so prayers for the translators would be appreciated as well.

6. Please pray for the CWF guys’ health – that they would stay well regardless of the food, heat, or taxing situations, as well that they would be safe from injury.

7. And pray for the people coming to the shows. The CWF wrestling events are being set up as the main draw, amidst a number of different ‘events’ happening. Pray that their unique style of evangelism would be used to reach people that might not otherwise hear the message.

This is Jenn Taylor, Jeremy’s sister, writing this on his behalf. He called from Egypt and left a message for us, informing us that they do not (at least at this time) have internet access and so can not send their updates and prayer requests except by phone.

Here is what he mentioned.

Prayer Requests
1. The Ring – it is too big and they are having to make adjustments as we speak.
2. Supernatural Endurance – they have only thirty minutes between each one-hour show in which to rest. Please pray that the guys can keep up this pace, and without illness or injuries.
3. Booking shows – this is mostly finished, but he still mentioned it before his message was cut off.

Your prayers are appreciated. God will do great things with the guys from CWF while in Egypt, and we eagerly await to see Him move and work there.

Regards,
Jenn Taylor
