This morning my mom headed to the airport to fly to Malawi for 5 weeks. She is co-leading a missions team that will be working primarily with people/families who have HIV/AIDs. She has gone on missions trips like this before, but never for this long and has never led a team. I’m so excited that she has this opportunity and know that God has big plans for their time there. Please pray for her and the work she is doing. Also for my dad and little brother she left at home – my dad is doing better and started back to work (he is not quite up to full-time yet, but he is adding an hour or so each week so that he can build up his strength and not overdo it), but with all the health problems he recently has had, it was harder for my mom to leave him this time. But my 15 yr old (well he’s almost 15) brother is home with my dad and hopefully they will help each other out – my brother knows how to cook and do laundry so he can help my dad!
Another prayer that is on our hearts…..Andy’s cousin, Mark and his wife Jen and their son Connor in Georgia are going through an incredibly difficult time right now. Jen is 5 mo. pregnant with a baby girl and they just found out that the baby has 0% chance of survival outside the womb. She is going to have to deliver the baby next week and say goodbye. Please pray for their peace and strength as they go through all of this.
