The Expected and the Unexpected

Thanks for your continued prayers and gifts for my Wycliffe ministry. God is using them mightily. The past two weeks went smoothly, facilitating logistics and making preparations for coming programs. Next, we will host two groups of colleagues for Connections, July 24-28 and July 31-August 4. We are grateful for your prayers that we would serve these co-workers well and that they would feel that they have been celebrated, cared for, and connected well with the resources available to them through the Wycliffe USA headquarters.

On a personal note, today's update is from Brownsburg, Indiana. Mom took a tumble last Saturday evening and fractured her pelvis in two places and broke a finger. She spent Sunday through Wednesday in the hospital for observation. I flew in Tuesday evening. I am thankful for technology that permits me to work remotely and also help out as she continues her recovery. I'll head back to Florida next Friday, July 21. My family is overwhelmingly grateful to the Lord for His protection and for the assistance and care of so many local medical professionals and church family who have come alongside. We'd be grateful for your prayers during the six to eight-week time projected for her healing. It's been encouraging to see her progress even in the two days I have been here.
