Going to the Nations Prayerletter 3

While at the Medical appointment, Shalese had to have her heart listened to. Leanna said “Wow I can see her gills!” We had to explain that humans can breathe out of water, so therefore they are called ribs! Over the past month we have gone through all the checks and double checks to make sure we are healthy to go. The children have had to have a lot of needles, including the TB (Mantoux test). I said to the boys “Well, it will be the girls turn to have our mantuox test next week” Nathan piped up and said, “Wouldn’t that be called the womantuox test?” He has obviously kept his sense of humor through the whole process! God has provided a contract for our house, for a great price and in this market, it is a true miracle. It is a 4 week settlement, as we prayed for God’s timing; we will go with that! 1 Peter 4:11 summed up for us this month, of how he provides us strength to speak his words and serve for him! Praise God for all his provision and strength to get through all the moves and medicals!
