Thank you so much for your prayers while my father and I were in Zambia working on the house. It was a very special time for us. Much work was accomplished and there is much to do after we arrive. It was also very humbling for me as I lay ill being prayed for by men who had walked over 40 minutes to kneel beside my couch to pray for me and my healing. Words don’t describe it. We would appreciate your prayers for us as we go through this transition into a new life! This is truly a time of paradox for us-we are sad to leave you-our family, our friends, our church-yet exciting to go out and see what God is going to do!
