November 7, 2010

On the road for two weeks. No time for blog updates. THANK YOU for your prayers for Haiti during the hurricane. Our area was not hit hard and the devastation to the entire country was much less than expected. PRAYER WORKS!!! We need you to continue the prayers. We've heard from our staff in Haiti that there are more cases of cholera and that it is spreading closer to our compound. Several cases are being treated at the Haitian clinic next door to us and Susan... one of our nurses helped them through the night last night. All the missions in our area are meeting and working together to help educate the population and deal with this epedimic.
We had a team arrive in Haiti on Saturday from CO. Sheryl said it was a challenge to get to the airport. Lots of flooding on the roads. Praise the Lord they arrived back at the compound safely.
We were blessed to be in a 5 day Missions conference at Christ Church in Nashville. (Oct 27-31) This is an annual conference and it was great to see so many friends. It was exciting for us to see what a multi-culture church this has become.
Glen and Linda Erickson drove a rental truck from CO with their furniture and items to put on the container shipping out of Nashville. We will be loading the container this coming Friday. People are coming from KY and IN to help.
Global had their annual Missions conference and Fall Board meeting Nov. 4-6. We had 46 missionaries there for the conference. This is the most we've ever had at one time. What a joy to visit with them and hear how the Lord is working in countries around the world.
