Dear friends & family,
The last few month have been quite a challenge for us.
One tropical storm after another, with sustained high winds, and almost daily torrential rain downfall, causing a bunch of landslides on our main road to town, but also long periods of power & internet outages. Our ladies Bible study did not meet for many weeks, due to weather, but also due to sickness (cold & flu). Same with the children’s work.
We had to go to the neighboring island to renew our car tags and that was very challenging as well. To do that, we had to drive on to a small roll-on-roll-off boat ferry. The dangerously high waves tossed the small vessel back and forth, for about 40min. We encountered many landslides as well on the way to main town Odiangan, but made it ok. We chose to stay a few days in a “motel” to wait for the sea to calm down and we made it back home safely.
We thank the LORD for keeping us save and sound thru all of it! Praise Him!
Please pray for the different efforts of our ministry to start back up soon!
In Him,
Patrick & Karen
“…to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen” – Jude 25
