PRAYERS REQUESTED

I am asking for prayers for a young woman in Uganda who is having a C-section tomorrow. Her first pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. She is, understandably, extremely nervous about the upcoming procedure, as they are not as routine as they are here in the U.S., and the health care is not as advanced, either. She is the elder sister (or maybe cousin?) of a young girl that Linda and I are sponsors for so that she may attend school.

H1/DIL1 are beginning to sport webbed feet and gills due to all the rain that's been falling in Houston. New Orleans is expected to have more rain over the next couple of days. Hopefully not in the quantities or duration that Houston has been experiencing!

Went to church with Linda and KenEllie at our home parish. Afterward we went up the street to a small local café, Aunt Leni's, for coffe and lunch. It was delicious! While we were there we had the pleasure of the company of one of my co-workers, Jim, who was in the neighborhood. He joined us for coffee and a nice chat. Nice to have you back from Memphis, Jim!!

I'll stop here, while wishing you all a "Happy Feast of the birth of St. John the Baptist"! God is GOOD!!
