“Be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:32)

I am living by the “no news is good news” philosophy this morning as I have heard nothing from home so I assume all is well.

It is shortly after 1:00AM here in Guatemala and our last crew (25 in number) just arrived from the airport about thirty minutes ago.  They left New Orleans just before 4:00PM and were then delayed by an hour or so in Houston.  They are tired folks but came with really good attitudes.  They have already learned about being flexible and are doing well with it.

Pastor Jordan and Pastor BJ arrived with their folks (23 in number) around 3:00PM yesterday.  They left Huntsville at 5:30AM yesterday so they found the beds fairly quickly last night.  Some really good folks from Ethelsville Baptist and Thelma Baptist in Wetumpka.  We have ten folks staying off campus as the mission house can only sleep forty folks.  Those ten have taken it all in stride too.

I would ask you to pray for one of my maternal uncles, Bill Brown.  He lives in Paw Paw, Michigan.  I found out today that he suffered a heart attack over the weekend and had to have four stents put in place.  It is my understanding that he is a bit anxious so I would appreciate your prayers for him.

The hour is late and little Lisa (Deidra) is demanding that I be in the kitchen at 5:00AM!  As they say, the pear does not fall far from the tree!

I pray that you will have a great Friday with Jesus.
