THURSDAY, 6/14/12
Barbara Kelley remains hospitalized and is undergoing a series of tests. She was originally scheduled to be discharged today but that is not going to happen. Keep praying for her.
As far as I know, no significant change in Gunnar Howell’s situation. Keep praying there too!
My mother-in-law, Ann, will have a surgical procedure at some point this morning. She will be in the hospital overnight.
My dad is supposed to have another kidney stone blasted today (I think).
Caroline Ford, Jordan Lowell, Dana, Gina and I all arrived in Guatemala safely yesterday around noon. John King graciously came to the airport to get the ladies while Dr. Tico and I headed to the lawyer’s office. Talk about fun – sitting in the lawyer’s office for about two or two and one half hours waiting and then having Dr. Tico read/translate documents to you. A quick stop at Pricesmart for some supplies and then we finally got to the mission house. The ladies and I went to Pollo Campero (sorry Rita) for supper and then did grocery shopping for the team at Maxi Dispensa.
Ryan Johnston, Missions Pastor, from Faith Baptist of Bartlett, TN was here so I got to spend some time with him last night. He led a team from Union City, TN. They have had a good week and left early this morning heading home.
Our team led by Bro. Chris (Mobile) and Pastor Keith Martin (Birmingham) left this morning and should arrive at the Guatemala airport around 1:30PM. Another team from Michigan led by Dr. Mark Stid left Chicago this morning and will arrive at 11:30AM. We will be joined by three pastors from El Salvador later this weekend. So, our team will consist of 64 folks on the highest days (the MI folks will do some work separate from us as we can only take Yankees for so long!)
JD, praying for your VBS emphasis today!
If my wife, Lisa, had a saying about diets this would be it: “Diets are hard – today I had cupcakes without sprinkles.” (Taken from a website by Pastor Tim)
I pray that you will have a great Thursday with Jesus.
