Need support and Prayer big time!


Hey guys, you are receiving this because we call you friends and we need prayer and support right now very much.

This is the situation.
We are having a baby! Which is not the problem at all! we are excited to be parents and having this new chapter in our lives (a long chapter we've heard!)
Because Kathryn is 8 months and 3 weeks along now, and has been in bad health since the beginning of the pregnancy, she has not been able to work, and cannot work at the moment.

I vinjelu am not legally allowed to work in Canada on my present visa.
I have applied for permanent residency in Canada, we will hear back about this in April/May 2008. Once we found out we would STILL be waiting many months before being approved for permanent residency, we had to make a new plan.

So I made up my C.V. (resume) and applied for jobs, which is the first step in applying for a work permit in Canada. I had one response (and really believe that was from God) from a organization that works with youth at Risk in the Camrose, Alberta area. They want to hire me and so have applied to HUMAN RESOURCE CANADA. Now we are waiting on HRC approval. This is one of the Major prayer requests, we want to pray for this approval to come out in the next few weeks. If not days!

After this approval comes through I then have to submit my application for a work permit to IMMIGRATION CANADA. That could take from 2-12 weeks to be processed.
Again this is a prayer request, we want to believe for this work permit to be issued by the end of January!

Because of this situation we have no income, we've just got back form Zambia in September. Unfortunately while we were in Zambia we accumulated debt. We are doing the best as we can to make this process go as fast as possible, but recognize that we need God to do something big. Please pray with us and believe with us for break through with HUMAN RESOURCE CANADA, and with IMMIGRATION CANADA.

Thank you for your support,
Vinjelu and Kathryn Muyaba

I've been praying that goes through quickly and with no hitches. It's good to see all the details listed here guys.

Kathryn, your lemon chicken is so fabulous it would be famous if you marketed it! Thank you so much for blessing us like that. We really enjoyed our visit with you two, and look forward to more.

Nialle is doing really well. Last night he found out his hemoglobin has stabilized. Now we're just praying his health returns and he too can get back to work and back to his life.

(You two make the most handsome couple.)
