Been a While...

I have not yet learned how to keep up with emailing, blogging, Facebooking, while being a dad to five kids, a husband, and a missionary in a third world country. So with that said, here's some news you might like to hear.

1. Our board member, Leha, whom I wrote about over a month ago, gets to go home tomorrow (April 16th). She has spent the last forty days in the hospital and rehabilitation center. Praise God for her healing! She has been through a lot, and still needs our prayers.

2. I closed the door to our 40' long cargo container back in the middle of November. I finally got to open it on Monday! We had an appointment with the customs inspector, where we had to hire about ten guys to pull everything out and put it in another container so the inspector could look at everything. Hopefully soon we will be able to get the container released to us. It is going to be a huge blessing, not just to our family, but the orphanage, the people of Balan, and others as well!

Here's a picture of the beginning of the unloading process. It took them about two and a half hours to move everything from our container to the one sitting next to it.



Until next time (and I promise it will be sooner)

I hope that you and your family are safe and were not affected personally by the earthquake. Thinking of you all.
