Praise & Prayer

Tankersley Praise & Prayer Update View this email in your browser June 2025 Dear Prayer Warriors, In our 38 years of marriage, we've packed and unpacked 22 times—across 3 states (FL, TN, IL) and 3 countries (Ecuador, Costa Rica, Colombia). And just recently, we made move #23—this time to Greenwood, Indiana, home of One Mission Society World Headquarters. These past two months have truly been a whirlwind. We've been on a waiting list for campus housing at OMS since last June, specifically hoping for a ranch-style home. After several months without any availability, we were offered a duplex as a temporary option. Trusting in God's timing, we accepted and immediately listed our home in Peoria. Within two days, we had 14 showings and 4 offers, launching us into a fast-paced season of downsizing, packing, moving and settling into our new home. Looking back, we're deeply aware of how perfectly God provides—often in ways we couldn't have imagined. We're incredibly grateful for His faithfulness and for bringing us to a community where we're excited to serve and grow. There's ample guest housing here on campus, and we would love to welcome you for a visit—to OMS, and to the beauty and hospitality of Greenwood, Indiana. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for your continued love, support, and especially your prayers. We couldn't do this without you—and we're so thankful we don't have to. Blessings, Doug & Cindy Albania Team 2025 You may remember praying for our multinational team to Spain last April. There were several Albanians on that team that crossed their border for the first time.  Last month, Lando, MFM Albania Regional Representative, returned to Spain to lead his first MFM short-term mission team. They worked at the OMS camp, but also had opportunities to evangelize in the areas outside the camp.   Please pray our June schedule: 1.
