Prayers Needed

Prayers much appreciated. It looks like I might be spending the next few summers in Sicily digging in Phoenician cultural material. I have some prerequisites to accomplish this fall, but then I will spend a few weeks in Sicily during the spring to prepare the site (site survey and plan), and then start digging in Sicily in the summer (either 4 or 8 weeks over the next four years minimum).

There aren't that many people digging in Sicily at present, so this is a great opportunity for me and my peers (one or two other students). We will be trail blazing in a lot of ways. This could be the project I spend the next ten years on, not sure yet.
