God is good, all the time. Even when we don't understand what He is doing.
So far we remain at 3 cases of COVID-19. Two have recovered and one is improving. No further spread.
However, the isolation order is causing famine. There is food, but people cannot get out to purchase it. Please pray for us.
We received a request yesterday from a pastor who runs an orphanage. The police delivered a 1 1/2-year-old to him. They found him abandoned in the street. His mother had tried to end his little life! Starvation causes people to do the unthinkable.
The pastor was requesting our assistance. This tyke had no clothes, was starving, and probably in shock. Heartbreaking really!
Pray for him also please.
After serving joyfully for 2 months, Eric has left to try repatriating to Canada. He has been a wonderful servant of God to the people, who loved him a lot. He will be missed.
I cannot accompany him. Some requirements of the journey are only manageable for the young! Apparently, I don't qualify :(
Funny how that stage passed without notice. It's like going downhill on a mountain when you don't remember hitting the top!
But, make no mistake, downhill is still enjoyable.
Thank you to all of you who take a moment to remember us in prayer. There is no greater weapon!
God will take us through this, and His promise is that He will remain with us always!
sending love from D.R. Congo.....
