First of all...Dad: Happy Fathers Day. Thanks for all that you do/ have done for me. Thanks for all of the time that you invested in me. I cant even begin to list all of the time and money that you must have spent just so that we could do things together. You are by far one of the biggest influences in my life and the reason for the man that I have become. Love you.



This week went well. I am feeling better after feeling sick in the stomach and a head cold....thanks for the prayers.

We did a Medical clinic yesterday in a village about 20 minutes away. Before every clinic someone gives a testimony, this time it was my turn. After, there is always the plan of salvation explained. I saw maybe 10 of the 30 or so people who showed up pray for salvation, which is pretty amazing. Things like this are the reason why I came here. As Ive said before, the Gabonese are very receptive to the gospel, much more than people in the states.

But it made me wonder later how many of them actually understood what they were praying for, and if they knew what they were repeating, how many of them actually believed it? I Know that God can save anyone, but it still is in the back of my mind. Maybe thoughts like this are actually doubting of Gods power?

Today I sat through a 4 1/2 hour church service. I think it was all of the Alliance churches of Libreville together in one stadium. There were like 800- 1,000 people there. The Hope house kids were there and some of them sat with us, which gave us something to do. I almost forgot...we all got pulled up to front to dance. 15 dancing white people in an African service is a scary sight.

We have have Tim and some of our interns leaving for Bongolo for a week and a half. This means that we will be here alone because Meredith is in the states for 3 weeks. This will be interesting.

mmmm thats it. Thanks for praying.
