More Praise

Thank you, everyone, for your support so far of our Mozambique, Africa trip! We are excited that we are able to travel as a couple this year to Africa. We are praying that God will do great things and that HIS will will be accomplished! We still have $2,000 to raise, but are SO grateful for the amount that has come in so far! It's really a miracle and we know that GOD is providing! A special thanks to whoever gave our "anonymous" donation! Wow. Wish we could properly thank you. Only 7 weeks to go! hurray!

Praises!

Thank you, Lord!
We thank the Lord for His sustaining goodness! We got our camera back! United airlines sent it to us via Federal Express. Yes! This is a picture of the sign they built for the Victory Park home division.

And...I hate to tell this story...but if you are taking the time to read my blog, I will tell you! I was in the shower this morning trying to think of a way to keep my license safe when we travel to Africa. I didn't want to go through another airport without my ID! So I thought and thought and then I remembered...oh yes...I'll hide it in my secret hiding place in my travel purse. Then it hit me. MY SECRET HIDING PLACE! So and looked...and there was my license all along! Augh! I hid it so well I forgot about it! ha. I have to laugh at myself and say sorry to Hertz for thinking they took it! I'm just a ditz!

We're home!


Many praises! Thanks for your prayers. Our last day in McComb was good. We visited friends we met and said our good-byes. Then we headed to Slidell and visited Operation Blessing. They help demolish homes and clear the debris. We visited the Ninth Ward, the place of the most devastation. We ate dinner in the French Quarter. Yum. We've had a week of a lot of good souther cooking!!

Can you believe - we lost our camera with all our pictures!!!! It was left on the plane from Louisiana to LAX. Pray it gets returned to us. I never got my license so I have to go to DMV and fill out paperwork for that. I'm glad we have Monday off school!

Final Prayer Requests...

1. Get camera back
2. Pam to get her license
3. Clodene - a resident who is very, very disturbed since Katrina. She is a sad woman with many trials!
4. Helen and Brenda - residents who lost everything but the joy of the Lord IS their strength!
5. Caroline - resident with diabetes. Former school teacher. Don't know if she knows the Lord or not
6. Support for Pam and Lee's Mozambique trip. We need to raise over $5,000!
