Greetings my Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,
Meredith and I can not thank you all enough for all the prayers and concern for us. I would say we are both back to 100 percent health wise and Meredith agrees with me. When I was in Nigeria I didn’t realize the seriousness of the drug-resistant malaria, double pneumonia and meningitis. However, after talking with the doctors here, I am amazed that the Lord has allowed me to fully recover, and so quickly. The Infectious Disease Specialist gave me a clean bill of health this past week after a final round of tests and believes I am healthy enough to return. Meredith has also been able to heal up after her pelvic floor surgery, able to run again and free from pain.
I have to brag on God a bit: before the Doctors in Nigeria really understood what was wrong with me they provided all the right treatments. God provided housing, transportation, finances, meals & rest through our many brothers and sisters in Christ here in the USA. Our visas and green cards have arrived from Nigeria allowing us to return. The Youth Workers training program in Nigeria successfully winds up today. The violence in Plateau State has settled down and we hope and pray there can be long term solutions to this ongoing problem.
Prayer points:
- A good finish to the time God has provided for us to rest and heal in America
- Return travel on the 31st arrive Abuja on 1st and up to Jos on the 2nd
- Peaceful solutions to ethnic/religious violence in Nigeria
- Meredith starting a new role as Music teacher at Hillcrest School
- Wisdom in all things
