Itch

So, back from church and just hanging out at the house.  We went to the C&MA mother church this morning which has two services.  The service we went to had about 3,000 people in it.  Wow!  The second service was said to be even bigger...  Anways, we had another village trip yesterday for med stuff.  Not as eventful as the day before with all of the bumps and mud, but successful nonetheless.  We also went to another village to scout it for next week (another med site).  Make sure the chief knows we are coming on thursday.  It's a beautiful village because it's right on the coast, but it is a pretty far and bumpy ride there.  Oh well.
One negative thing about the trip was the amount of mosquitos that were flying around the village.  We all got bit up pretty bad...  I just counted all of the bites and the final total is around 98, give or take a few...  Was not fun last night or this morning with all the itchiness.  I love anti-itch cream!
I continue to stand in awe of the work God is doing in men like Pastors Jacob and Joseph.  They are passionate for the Lord and want to see His name sent everywhere.  It seems like they never tire or grow weary in any situation.  I ask that you pray for them because the Lord is doing great things in and through them.

  1. Hi Zachary, Sounds like you're having too much fun. It has been great to read that you've been doing well along with your Mom and Dad's story. Moe is home this weekend and tried to email you but you were probably trying to talk to Mom and Dad. We continue to pray for you and your team of workers. I know this experience will go down in history for you. Be well, keep the bugs fed and talk to you soon. Aunt Charlotte
