Our excitement about arriving to the
U.S. was tempered by the news of mass flooding in Sabrina’s home area. On the
Saturday before we left the field, my mother-in-law had to be rescued out of
her place in Denham Springs (Louisiana), as waters from a nearby river reached
the level of her roof. We are thankful
that her life was spared, yet prayer is greatly needed as there is much work to
be done in rebuilding her house. Our sending church in Gulfport (Mississippi)
generously provided a hotel room and a van for Sabrina’s mom so that she could be
with us during our first weekend home; Faith Baptist made it known that they
were very happy to see us (restaurant meals, gifts, and a phone were given by
members), and I had the privilege of speaking there the last two Sundays of
August. The other two big activities of the month were picking up a van that we
have on a missionary lease from a ministry called Righteous Rides in the St.
Louis area and preaching a school revival for a supporting church in the
Beaumont (Texas) area.
