Help me out...pray for Andy

[Joey Aszterbaum]

My good friend Andy lives is a Scot who lives in the French countryside. He's a fantastic photographer and artist. He's the guy who painted the walls in our home that rich red and green (you've seen it) and has a gift in sharing the good news (latent for a few years).

He's battling a very serious depression, anxiety and doubts about his faith. Add to this that he feels France is a very dark place and he doesn't have any friends who are Jesus-followers, and that work slowed recently. He has asked me to have you all pray for him. Please take a minute to do that.

I would specifically pray for these things:

1- that he would find comfort from his worries and sadness
2- that he would be able to visit my family...I consider us his family
3- that he would be able to move to the U.S. or some other place than France
4- that he would find the encouragement of a faithful community of Christ-followers

Thank you for taking a few moments.

Here are samples of his artwork.

Thank you all for praying.

Andrew is doing well. He opened up with someone who cares that lives close to him and will be there for him.

He and I have been in the habit of talking nearly every day. Once we even sang old hymns over the phone for an hour! You haven't lived until you have a one hour hymn-sing with a Scottish guy in France via cell phone :)

Keep up the prayer.

Thank you all for your prayers for Andy.

He's feeling quite a bit better and has plans to visit us at the end of November. YAY.

I am so glad he is doing better... continued prayers. That would be great if we could meet him. Gina
