August sun

Sorry for the lack of bloggage, we have had a wicked run of the flu at the church. Almost all the missionaries and students have gotten sick within the last 2 weeks. Including rusty and myself. We are pretty sure rusty had the swine flu, but it's a lot weaker out here and they don't even take you at the hospital for it. Too many people have it, so they just turn you away. We are advised to sleep, stay away from other people and drink lots of fluids. Rusty is doing really good, he just has a cough hanging around. I'm feeling pretty good too, but i also have a cough. They are deminishing, and thank you for all the prayer, i never got a fever like rusty did. We have all been spending some quality time in our beds and in the Word.
Please keep us all in pray tho, we still have students to send home and thru immigraton back to America. Also we will be getting a handful of brand new students in about 2 and a half weeks, so we would like to make sure the whole virus is gone before they come to school.

Aside form that, our August is shaping to be a hot and humid one.
The temperatures have been around the mid to upper 80's, but whats killer is the humidity. We usually have between 79-88%! No hair straighter can compete with that!
Ministry is going strong aside form that fact that we had to cancel a VBS this week due to the severity of the flu on Island. We are continuing to ministry to the Body of Christians on Island and getting ready to send home our S.O.S Students.

Thanks for keeping up with us even when we are sick.
