Hello Friends, I just want to bring you an update from Lauren and Martin Polok in Prague, Czech Republic. As many of you know, Lauren grew up at CLC and joined the YoungLife Organization as a young adult. When she obtained her ESL degree, Lauren left for the Czech Republic to become a missionary and an English teacher.
Lauren met Martin Polok, a Czech native, through their joint outreach and leadership work with YoungLife. They married a few years ago and have a beautiful daughter, Olivia.
They now are expecting twin boys in April and Lauren will be delivering the boys via c-section, between 36-38 weeks term.
Here are prayer requests specifically from Lauren.
"Just a few areas where we would WELCOME YOUR PRAYERS! For continued health for the babies and me! For all the details surrounding delivery and for Martin as he’ll be with Oli more when that time comes! For this next month— for energy and peace and the ability to accept help (and ask for help when we need it)! For Martin also as he continues full time in planning camps for the summer, participating in events for Young Life and WyldLife and maintaining relationships with leaders, students and key adults in the community!"
If you would like to send the expectant couple a gift for their upcoming twin boys or you would be interested in supporting them, you may do so by going to www.younglife.org and selecting Give. Select a dollar amount and then select a recipient by searching for Lauren Polok in Chambersburg, PA. You can set this giving up as a one time offering or as a monthly contribution. I know that Lauren, Martin & Oli will appreciate your kindness very much.
