**Peter Twele**

Dear praying friends,

2026 started out with a political flare up in the country where the mother tongue translators for the Fini, Sonora and Cibta Bible translation projects are located.

I talked to the two Sonora team translators two days ago. One of them said, “We’ve been hearing gun fire in the distance, and schools have been shut down. Every morning when we wake up, we’re not sure which political party is going to be in charge.” The other one said, “Several believers, including my two brothers, have been imprisoned for their faith.”

We are thankful that all our colleagues are safe at the moment.

Please pray for the believers who have been imprisoned.

Thank you very much for your prayers,

Peter and Hazel Twele

**Streams of Living Water by Richard J. Foster**

In this landmark work, Foster examines the "streams of living water" –– the six dimensions of faith and practice that define Christian tradition. He lifts up the enduring character of each tradition and shows how a variety of practices, from individual study and retreat to disciplines of service and community, are all essential elements of growth and maturity.
