Prayer Requests

This is a prayer request for water. That life giving liquid. It has not rain significantly for the last several week, and the cisterns are getting low. We have enough water now for about the next six days here at the mission.

Also pray for the people of Haiti. There is a fever going around by the name of chikungunya that is carried by mosquitos and is affecting many people. Several of the staff here at the mission have gotten it  already.

These things are not a cause for wary or concern, but a reminder that we need to really on God for EVERY thing in our lives. And for us right now that is water and health.

Mangoes anyone?

I know that it has been a long time since anything was posted, so I thought that I'd bring it back with something tasty. I went down to clinic to clean the rain gutters and while I was up on the roof I saw that the trees were loaded with mangoes. Most of them are still a little bit green though.


The branches were hanging so close to the roof that the leaves didn't have anywhere to go but in the gutter, so I trimmed them back a little and we got over two 5 gallon pails full of mangoes just off the branches that I cut off.
