Monday update

Hey everyone!  Talked to Randy briefly today.  They enjoyed their time today serving around 300-400 kids, some school kids and some orphans.  Tomorrow they will work more at Restoration Gateway and plan on going fishing in the Nile River tomorrow afternoon!  He asked that we pray that God will show him whether or not to go back into the village tomorrow.  Wednesday Randy will do a medical clinic and everyone will work around RG again.  His prayer is that they will finish strong, that God will touch whatever needs to be touched in their hearts, and that He will break their hearts for the poor.  He wants us to pray that they will be broken and filled with compassion for the poor.  One quick story from Jeff Connally (via Charlotte).  He said that today all they could give the kids at the end of the day was a piece of paper and a pencil.  When Charlotte commented that that was kind of sad, he said that they were actually really excited.  Yeah.  Kind of humbling to think about here in America.  Again, he wants to thank everyone for praying for the team - there really has been no conflict and Jeff Connally compared the team to a beautifully put together orchestra in which everyone is playing their part perfectly.  THAT is prayer!  Love all of you!  Pray for healing for our family - we have hand, foot, and mouth disease going around with the little ones.  :(

love,
Anda

Rock and roll. Praying that they will be broken for the poor of this world and realize how rich we all are in Jesus. No fears. No concerns like the world. I am thankful for you and Randy on every day of this trip. Praying for you to. You are sending him well. Peace of Christ!
