the crescendo

ok…so internet has been rough.

here’s a quick update:

i’m feeling mostly better.

tim’s getting sick.

christina rocks!

the story project is running into several problems.  our contact here has completely dropped us.  we’ve made some new contacts, but they are telling us that the project may not be possible because the language dramatically changed in 1959 with the first genocide – and many of the stories were lost then – and most translators don’t speak the old pre-genocide poetic language.  please be in prayer about this.  i can’t help but to be a little angry at our contact who did not mention this to us and then just dropped us once we did all this fundraising and gave up a month of our lives to come here and do this – - not to mention the debt we’ve incurred personally for this.

anyway, i do believe that God will bless the trip anyway.

yesterday we visited a hospital i previously visited.  i was greeted warmly and everyone remembered me.  they remarked that my sincere compassion for the sick was memorable and had touched them deeply.  this meant a lot to me.  we will go there two more times and will pray with the sick.

anyway, i must go.  i will update as i can – hopefully with pictures.

blessings friends.
