Daddy's in Sudan

So, Billy left for Yei, Sudan on Saturday and I started to feel quite sick right away...not missing him sick only, but REALLY sick. Some dear missionary friends stepped in and cared for Elsie Jayne while I prayed Jesus would touch me!!! He did! After I went to the clinic to be tested for malaria and crazy parasites!...It was just a really un-timely 24 hour bug. I trust it's also an encouragement that Jesus is really working in Sudan and helping my teammates and husband there. Join with me in praying God orders their time as they meet with our Sudanese pastors and converse with them about the future of WGM/AGC in Sudan. Pray Jesus continues to keep Elsie Jayne and I as we trust Billy and the rest of the team will return tomorrow (Tuesday) evening. Don't forget to praise Jesus for no roaming cell phones before you go to bed tonight!!! I did get an email from another missionary friend telling me she had seen Billy, so I know they arrived in Yei on Saturday just an hour later than they had expected to! That's great!
Elsie Jayne is growing while daddy is away. She has just discovered the rubber ducky that has been in her tub with her every night!! What delight I find watching her own delight and discovery! Jesus is so good to us!

Praying for you as you are home alone with your sweet baby. I know it's never fun when Josh goes away with the youth group! It is strange to adjust to your new role in ministry. If you ever want to chat about it- shoot me an e-mail. Love you much!
