A Friend Drops In


Some time ago a friend from back home who is also deployed was able to stop by for a short visit. I was kicking myself, after his visit, for not remembering to get a picture of us. Well, Agur stopped by again today, and we were able to spend about ten minutes catching up, AND I remembered to get a picture. It was really encouraging to talk to him and to find out that he is doing well—he does not have an email account, so staying in touch is basically impossible. I offered him some of the beneficence from several of my care packages (which I keep at my desk), but he said he was more than adequately cared for—and we both acknowledged what a blessing the Community of supporters we have back home has been. Thanks again, all of you, from the bottom of our hearts.

Helen: I think the VTC will be an interesting experience. I'm leaving the 'agenda' up to Sheryl, I never was very good at planning 'meetings' or 'conferences.' 105 in soCal (on the WBGTI) is probably about the same as 115 here due to humidity and other factors, don't sell yourselves short. Yes, too bad Sheryl and Josh did so well camping without me, goes to show how inessential I really am in their lives...

Chris & Wendall: Thanks for your report on Sheryl and Joshua, and THANKS for your prayers, we are SO blessed here because of your care. It was hard to tell in the VTC how much Joshua had grown, I'll just be overwhelmed, I guess, when next I see him! God's blessings on you both.
