Update September 11, 2008

The weekly studies are going well. While at the Tuesday night study at Mines View the woman who hosts the study received a phone call from the hospital to tell her that her teenage daughter had collapsed and was in the ER at a local hospital. So, obviously, the study stopped and we all rushed down to the hospital. Her daughter, evidently, had had an asthmatic attack and in the panic that that can bring on began to hyperventilate, which caused her to pass out. She was a bit tense still when we arrived but began to settle down and within an hour was released. She was out last night at the Wednesday night prayer meeting and bible study, but will be going to the doctors today for a check up.

The Friday evening, and Saturday afternoon studies will proceed this week as scheduled. Both have those who attend who do not know the Lord, so please be praying as the Gospel goes out to them. Pray also for those who attend who have been away from the Lord that the Lord might use this time to speak to their hearts as well.

This Sunday and next I will be teaching at Navy Base, then the last Sunday of the month we will be down in Manila and I will be teaching, Lord willing, at the assembly in Cogeo, where we served the Lord for many years.

We will begin hosting a couples fellowship at our place starting next month, are looking forward to that time. We so enjoy having the saints visit us.

Larry and Kim have been sick this past week and still have not recovered. Both are experiencing stomach and intestinal discomfort and all that goes with that. We are not certain at this time what is causing it, so please keep them in your prayers. The grandkids are fine, and are not showing any of the same symptoms, pray that that would continue to be the case. Here in the tropics it is quite easy to become dehydrated and weak when you are struggling with these discomforts, so please be praying for them.

Thanks again for all your prayers and kind support of the Lord’s work here among us. Your help reaches out to so many who have needs, the Lord has used many of you over and again to help meet the needs of the dear saints here. For that we give you thanks. Lord bless you all, for His glory.
