Did I make it???

Many of you have been praying with me for 44% by October 1st. Thank you for praying!!! I've been waiting to hear from some churches. So right now I'm somewhere between 40-45%. I'm pretty much there, though I'm not sure yet on the exact figure. I'm very encouraged though! Eight months ago I was holding a steady 5%, and now... PRAISE THE LORD!!

My next prayer goal is 66% by January 1st. As God wills, and yet so many times we have not because we ask not, right?! Again... thank you for praying!

Is there a cure?

All right... what's the cure for bronchitis? I've had this cough for over a month now, and it doesn't show any signs of leaving me alone yet! The doctor doesn't seem to think I'm a candidate for antibiotics, so I'm eating my way through bags of cough drops, drinking gallons of water, and trying not to become addicted to Ny-quil! :-) 'Tis the season I guess... the last church service I was in got pretty noisy with our large, scattered coughing orchestra! :-) :-)

LCCA carnival

I've enjoyed a perfect deputation schedule recently... several weeks of traveling followed by several weeks of a slower pace. This last week I got to enjoy a few days back at school, teaching elementary chapel, substituting, and enjoying the 3rd annual LCCA carnival, complete with face painting and fried ice cream! :-)

Missions conference in Greeneville, TN

What fun to see the Brouwers again, this time in the U.S. at their home church, Central Baptist Church, Pastor Todd Abbey. Praise the Lord for this wonderful church, so involved in missions! Eight families have been called to the mission field out of this church! Thank you for taking care of our vehicles, taking us shopping, and completely spoiling us missionaries!!
