Peter & Amanda Shackelford are back in the La Mirada area and will be staying for several months to work on a special project. Peter is the son of missionaries Ed & Luanne Shackelford, whom we regularly support. As many of you will remember, a couple years ago Peter began a film project on behalf of our church designed to capture the ministeries of several of our missionaries. These DVDs could then be used to inform not only our church but also other (potential) supporters these missionaries may have. In a world increasingly driven by visual media, this is a great service to our missionaries and a great way to shed light on what our God, a missionary God, is doing around the world.

Having married Amanda and completed several missionary videos, they now sit on the brink of launching a non-profit organization devoted to just this kind of media-ministry to missionaries. Pray for Peter & Amanda as they assemble an organizational board and talk through logistics.

As they solidify this organization, they (and our missions committee) anticipate a proposal for filming our missionaries in Africa. Pray for the development of this proposal and for our missions committee as they consider this proposal and make decisions in response.
