Hello everyone.
I have lots of things that we can thank God for!
- Firstly, my new accommodation is going well, and the youth outreach on Sunday was great. A few hundred young people came (plus others from the town) and heard songs, dramas, Bible readings and a short talk challenging them to follow God in their lives. It was encouraging to see the enthusiasm of the youth here to share their faith (they also go to prisons and hospitals), as well as the support of some of their parents who had come to see them in their outreach program. Please pray for the youth that heard the message and for Christians in the town following up the event.
- Our hospital generator had some particular struggles at the weekend, so as well as thanking God for it's recovery now, thanks also goes for there not being any emergencies during the time of no power and there not being any patients on oxygen at that time. [The very next day we had both of these things requiring power!] Please continue to pray for the ongoing generator situation, as there has been a long drawn out process in trying to get a more effective generator into action here!
- Thanks for a really encouraging healing of a patient's skin ulcer - the patient's wife has expressed that she has been praying to God and seen him answer her prayers.
- Thanks to God for the safe return of the MAF pilot here and the family of another missionary doctor.


- Please pray for our aeroplane situation. We have graciously not had any medical emergencies requiring air evacuation during the past 2weeks of no pilot and a broken plane. However we now have our pilot back, but now 2 planes here that are not working!! A mechanic is coming tomorrow, so hopefully we will soon have a working plane!
- The first year CHW (community health worker) students left yesterday to go on a month-long village placement, serving the village practically and putting into practice skills that they have learnt. This will be a challenging time for them, so pray for physical and spiritual strength as they serve.
- Please also pray for energy for me as I am feeling quite tired at the moment, as well as not sleeping too well due to back pain.

All your prayers are greatly appreciated! Thank you!
