Sometimes God lets our kids take the long way to the foot of the cross. Today Lee talks to Wendy Palau, Moms in Prayer Mom and wife of evangelist, Andrew Palau. They discuss the power of prayer and the reason why it continues to be a priority in the Palau’s global ministry, and an experience that was a defining moment in Wendy’s motherhood journey.
About our Guest:
Wendy Palau shoulders a burden for the lost, born out of her own experience of living apart from Jesus Christ for the first 24 years of her own life. While born into a wonderful Christian home on the island of Jamaica, her heart wandered and sought fulfillment in all the world offers. At 25 years of age, God mercifully revealed Himself and she experienced His radical transformation.
Wendy and her husband, evangelist Andrew Palau, have since dedicated their lives to serving churches around the world through city-wide evangelistic outreaches. Each campaign features a strong focus on meeting the spiritual and physical needs of the least in this world. Under Wendy’s compassionate direction, mission teams join each effort; whether in Africa, Haiti, or her beautiful homeland of Jamaica. Wendy and Andrew have been married 19 years and her primary job is raising their three children: Christopher, Jonathan, and Sadie.

“Shoeboxes are a gospel opportunity.” In this episode, Lee is joined by Gracie O’Loughlin and Yulia Shubina to discuss the power of prayer, the gift of a shoebox and the sharing of the gospel. Today, you’ll hear the girls discuss how shoeboxes and prayer transform both the giver and the children who receive them, and Yulia’s shares two sentences in her shoebox letter that changed her life.
About our Guests:
Gracie O’Loughlin serves within the Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse, where she has been for five years. She currently works as the Assistant Director of Promotions and Partnerships, where she has the opportunity to invest in the wonderful relationships between OCC and its partners. Gracie holds a passion in her heart for prayer and loves her wonderful husband of 13 years, Sean, who also serves with Samaritan’s Purse.
Yuliya Shubina received a shoebox gift in Central Asia when she was 9 years old. There were many beautiful gifts inside, but the most important item was a letter from the girl who had packed the shoebox. Yuliya and the girl exchanged letters for many years afterward, and when Yuliya came to the United States to finish high school, she was able to meet her pen pal in person. During this time, the seeds planted through a shoebox gift many years before led Yuliya to accept Christ. Today Yuliya serves with Operation Christmas Child to tell the story of God’s faithfulness in her life.
Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child is November 12-19,2018.
