Summer in the States

 

Greetings from the US. We are back for a few weeks to have some time to connect with family and supporters. So far we've helped celebrate a wedding, visited family, and spoken at three supporting churches. Of course, there are always details to take care of related to personal issues and health too. Pray for God to make this time as effective as possible until we return to Ecuador in early August.

Scott is trying a new low-carb diet to help with his stomach issues. (No potatoes, rice, pasta, bread, fruit, bananas, sugar, beans, nuts, starchy vegetables, etc.) He feels much better and is no longer losing weight. Please pray for continued improvement in this area. We've made some progress on our visas and residency documents, there will be more to do sometime after we get back to Ecuador. For now we have to wait because of a backlog of cases in one of the government offices. We gained a new granddaughter, Caroline Grace, on April 26. Thank you for praying for a healthy baby and a safe delivery!

We'll be traveling for much of the next three weeks, visiting children, grandchildren and seeing several of you. As always, it won't be possible to see everyone, but please know we are extremely grateful for the part each one of you plays in touching lives in Ecuador!
