Friday at Liteta I was so encouraged to see the improvement in one of the little malnourished boys on the ward. I met him 2 weeks ago only 1-2 days into his stay. He is only skin and bones, about two years old and weighs about 12 lbs. He had that far off stare of a starving person. Friday he was up to eating regular porridge and foods. He looked alert and interactive and even tried pushing me away during my exam. I love that he is aware and alert enough to push away this strange muzungu. 

Saturday we enjoyed celebrating the life of one of our coworkers daughters.  She was diagnosed with Burkitt's lymphoma one year ago.  Through God's grace, many prayers, the perseverance and patience of Christine, John and her mom and dad, she is a vibrant eleven year old back at loving school and playing with her friends.

Exciting times coming this week as a team from Mississippi comes to help put up three tabernacles (churches) at the three sites we did the Holy Spirit conferences at.  Please pray for good connections to be made, the churches to grow and for safety as they put up the buildings.

Please also pray for one of the main missionaries leading the team.  Archie's mom passed away last night and he is staying here to see the project and people come together.
