David is flying to South Africa today. He and Pete Gibson ...from our home office...will be visiting several of our missionaries in Zambia and South Africa. Please pray for them as they make this journey. We know it will be an encouragement for those they are going to see. I will be staying in KY while David is traveling.
The last two months I have been filling in for the nurses in the Burn Clinic...first Sheryl...while they took a much needed time out and then for Linda as she and Glen took some time to visit family and take care of some business. Burns are such a terrible injury. It is so difficult to watch the suffering of these patients but so rewarding to see their burns heal. We have many patients for 3,4, 5 months and more. You really get attached to them. We have a 94 year old lady that was burned on both her legs from her knees down. Her family has been so faithful to bring her every day. Some days it took four of us to minister to her needs. What a strong lady...both in the physical and in the spiritual. Many days we sang to calm her as we dressed her legs.
Sept 21st-26th.Sally Betro and Teresa from Atlanta, GA came to do a teacher's conference. What a blessing to have people pour their lives into our teachers and give them teaching tips and of course encouragement.
It is always hectic trying to leave Haiti for a few weeks....trying to get everything caught up so the load won't be so heavy on those we leave. David and I will be in the US for several weeks. When he returns from South Africa we have couple of days to do his laundry and head out again.
Oct 24- 25th we will be in a Missions Conf. in Cleveland, TN at Lee University
Oct 26-30 we will be at Christ Church Mission conference in Nashville, TN. Return to KY to repack and go to Tupelo on Nov 2nd for a Mission conference and GO Board meeting. We should be back in KY on Nov 6th and then we both fly to Ecuador Nov. 10-21st. We have several missionary units to visit during these days. REST?????
