Great trip, but …

Don’t you think there are some things everyone should experience at least once? Like international travel, true love, a pair of shoes that really fit …

Malaria is not on that list.

I returned from a very successful trip to Indonesia on Wednesday, Dec. 3. But two days later things went from bad to worse, and when it became clear I had something more than jet lag, Julie took me to the emergency room. Malaria was the eventual diagnosis.

Today I just got back from a doctor’s follow-up appointment. I am basically feeling well, but I am weak and tire easily. While full recovery will take some time, I am getting back into the swing of things – including writing to update you!

Thanks for all your prayers for and help with the trip to Indonesia.

Please be in prayer about our finances. We had more than $500 in unfunded ministry expenses in November, and our income was at the same time almost $1,000 lower than normal. And now we’re going to have some major medical bills on top of that.
