November 10, 2013

Thanks for praying for us!  We finally slept (or more accurately stayed in bed) until the alarm clock buzzed at 6 this morning, so hopefully we will be less dinghy today.  After being more than a bit overwhelmed by buying a car so quickly, God led us to the perfect spot (one of those times when you're heading one way and remember another option as you pass it) to purchase exactly what we needed from a young Christian man God had waiting to help us! We've also had great visits with two of our kids and their family and will visit with our youngest today!

We're heading out in a few minutes for our first opportunities to share what God is up to among Sub-Saharan African Peoples (Bert) and at the Kenya Baptist Theological College (Jack) and how others can join in His work. Pray for us especially as we represent the International Mission Board (IMB) at the North Carolina Baptist State Convention this week.

I had a photo to share with you today of water rushing into the washing machine of the Temple Baptist Mission House, but posting it seemed very insignificant as I read of the typhoon that hit the Philippines on Friday.  Updated reports of how you can pray and help can be found the IMB Connecting website (http://www.imb.org/main/default.asp).  BERT
