Hi All!
Again, we are OK! Thank you LORD!
And, thank you(!) for praying with us and for us!
Yesterday, it finally stopped raining and we visited with some of the folks in our village. There is a need for rice and building material, but it is hard to tell how much of what is truly required.
Patrick will try to meet with the barangay captain (village official), Jun Hilario, to do further assessment. Of all people, Jun’s house was totally destroyed and needs to rebuild from ground up!
Power was restored yesterday afternoon, as well as our internet that same evening! Praise the LORD! We are expecting short, intermittent outages due to ongoing repairs…
Also, our well pump is pumping water as I write this! Praise the LORD!
Yesterday, 1 of the 2 ATMs was online long enough, so we were able to withdraw much needed funds! Praise the LORD! …Karen is in town right now, buying needed groceries & supplies…
The LORD answers prayers! Praise Him!
In closing, please continue to pray for how we can help our neighbors in need…we need much wisdom in this regards, because of the cultural expectations (jealousy, corruption, etc.)…
Thanks for praying with us and for us!
In HIM!

” Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgives all yours iniquities; who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies…” – Psalm 103:1-4
