Ben & Andrea are Home

September 11, 2009 by Vic and Patti Labutes

On September 9th our daughter, Andrea, her husband, Ben and their 3 children arrived in Florida. This was not an expected trip. They had recently moved into a village and had begun a ministry in Northern Asia. A lot of work and money had gone into renovating a house, setting up a ministry and settling into village life.

Ben had experienced some relatively mild allergic reaction to a certain plant in the past but this summer the symptoms became severe. He was able to get some relief when he began taking some powerful medications but the side effects were also nasty. It became clear that they had to leave the country at least until he can get some help for this problem.

Pray that the doctors that are treating him would have wisdom, that God would restore his health and that they would know God’s will about their future ministry. This could cause them to consider transferring to a ministry in a country where that plant does not grow.
