Up Date ... Oh so much to do !

The last thing I should be doing now is a blog entry, but just had to update.... We are packing tonight for 2 weeks in Uxxxxxxxx. Remember Nicholi.... Well let me show you what a couple hundred dollars can do ! Thank you to his sponsors.. He is a new man, washed, clean clothes , his first meal ever in a resteraunt , and into the hospital to get his feet fixed up, and all his paperwork almost ready and on the list to go to the seniors home in a few weeks..... check him out now!. We have also seen Mesha up and around after his skin grafts on his legs... we dropped off some food for him, but did not have a translator with us so all we could do is smile at each other.. ...
We brought the AVP team out to Teen Challenge Farm and did a work shop there, and bought them socks underwear and shoes. We had Orpanage kids to the Mountains and to the tower today ... it was the first time for them to the tower.... they were so excited...
Angela in the village is doing well.... her mother has been diagnosed with a brain tumor... our friend has found a doctor that will operate for free... we just need to find about $300 to cover the drugs and the hospital stay... They cannot operate until she builds her strength so that will buy us a bit of time... the problem is that she can not stay at the institution any more as her problem is not a mental one. We will have to rent an apartment for her to stay for a couple of months until we can build her strength.... we have provided vitamins and paid the first month rent ($40) this will give us time to figure out what more we can do when we get back from Uxxxxxxx.
Great news about the older kids in the village orphanage.... The University has agreed to offer any of them free tuition.... we just need to find a place for them to stay in the capital city...
I will post more in the next couple days....Promise

Just when I thought you were going to take it easy for a few days (which you should) But then I know you better than that.
Blessings and favour in all that you do.

Keep safe and rest between breaths

The generosity and compassion you show truly is amazing, and so inspiring--It just goes to show that we all can be ambassadors for God--if we are willing. God bless you, and continue to keep you safe and close to Him!
