Thank you so much for praying for us and our new friends. This weekend we had the tremendous priveledge of bringing a birthday cake to a little boy named Art's 2nd birthday. He lives in Welfareville with his parents and 1 month old brother in an area about as big as a twin size matress. (same family as the previous blog). What a joy to celebrate with them and see his smiles! The family also attended church for the first time on Sunday and said that they really enjoyed it! Please pray for their little son "Dos" who has a really bad crackle in his chest and is going on his 2nd week of sickness.
We leave today for Puerta Garela, where the Mercy In Action head quarters will be from now on. We helped pack up the clinic yesterday and last night we stayed with some wonderful news friends who are here with their 3 kids. It's been so fun to see who God is connecting our hearts with! They are teaching us about a tree that has all the nutrients of a pre-natal vitamin! The father was in hordiculture before becoming a missionary, so he and Shawn has some fun talking bonsai and such...
Marie was a little upset to be uprooted again and kept asking for "my other house" (what that means is anyones guess at this point) so I am excited to have them in one place for at least a few weeks! It looks like the girls and might do a little less traveling than we originally thoughts, but keep that in your prayers as we are making a lot of those decisions right now.
We are not sure about internet access for the next few days but will update asap.
