Roofs, Roofs, and more Roofs...

2009-09-02T19:10:00Z

The summer season ended with a BANG! For months we have been praying for the completion of roofs on the ministry grounds. A new roof for the hospital, preferably one that didn't have 100+ leaks, a roof for the missionary house for our family, and a roof for the little building close to the hospital that we affectionately call "the snack shack". God answered above and beyond all we could ask or imagine. In a matter of three weeks time in August all THREE roofs were completely finished. It is nothing short of a miracle. ...

We were starting to think that all of our remaining summer teams were going to cancel due to the political unrest in our country, but God gave us a breath of fresh air brought by a team from Seacoast Church in South Carolina.

In June we had the pleasure of hosting a medical team from Westmore Church of God in Cleveland, TN.
