Along The Way (21/Oct/05)
Friday... It has been fun to have Brenda Johnston from Hope's Promise in Namibia here with us this week. I look forward to folks getting to spend time with her at the Haven's home Saturday evening and to having her share a bit with us on Sunday morning. I think tonight we will try to take her over to the coast and have a seaside dinner.
I've been continuing to struggle with putting my Namibia 2005 experience into words - specifically written words - for my trip summary. I've been posting it in pieces here on the blog. I ran off a paper copy of the document so far and it numbers 16 pages. I know that I am not even halfway through what I hope to cover, so this may be an epic before it's done. And while this is going on, the initial planning is underway to put a Christ's Church team together for a trip back to Namibia in the summer of 2006.
Those of you who know my brother Dave and his family in Florida and have been aware of his need for a kidney transplant - they have scheduled his surgery for Friday November 4th. His son-in-law Scott is donating the organ for him. Isn't that great? "So, you want to marry my daughter? What's your blood type?" Dave and Scott would appreciate your prayers.

Darin,
I'm going to send along some Engelbert to Florida with you, so that Dave will have some easy listening music to recover by. Since he'll have the time, perhaps he can find some messages from God in the lyrics and share them with us! I can't get over how he chuckled about that!! Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all.
