Happy Birthday Caroline!



Okay, one more birthday this week. My friend Caroline is a very compassionate and poised nurse. If you’ve been to Faith Alive, she’s the tall nurse who works in an ARV team, goes on home visits, helps deliver babies, does surgical post-op, coordinates daily health talks, sings, dispenses Plumpy Nut peanut butter, and helps with visitor hospitality. She truly is amazing, with a deep faith in and love for Jesus and people in need. Caro says she GETS to heal and encourage people at the clinic. She lets them know “there are still so many tomorrows.”

To celebrate, six neighbor children came over. They laughed, prayed, sang, and danced, danced, danced together – so much so that she finally had to ask them to leave when her knees started to ache!

On another note, please pray for Dr. Chris as today he begins a quick trip to the U.S. for a wedding. Because a Nigerian man lit an explosive on a flight to the U.S. yesterday, Dr. Chris may have to endure extra questioning. Let’s pray for traveling mercies, and respectful treatment by airline security and personnel.
