Health update

Today little Howie tested negative for malaria. We're very thankful, but he still seems to have all the symptoms, so we're keeping a close eye on him. It could be that he does have malaria but it's in the incubation period and won't show up on the test for another week or so. Please keep praying for him.

One of the other Americans who lives here, Jenny, went to the clinic this morning with Little Howie because she wasn't feeling well either. Come to find out she has pneumonia and typhoid. She is spending the night at Sister Frieda's clinic tonight so she can get her IV meds, and will be home tomorrow. A few of us spent most of the afternoon with her. She is already feeling better and was in good spirits.

Thank you for praying for both Howie and Jenny. We would love continued prayer for the health of all of us. It's very tough to do ministry here and to love on the people of this town and community when we're not feeling well.  Thank you!!
