Well, Teddy and I are safely home in Manta. It was a long couple of days, but we are so thankful for the blessings of the Lord and that we arrived in Ecuador safely Thursday night and that our suitcases arrived safely on Friday night! :-) The Lord allowed us a day together with Tony relaxing in Guayaquil. What a special blessing. We arrived home yesterday about noon.
This is a big holiday week-end in Ecuador and today is the celebration of the founding of Manta. We had a really low attendance this morning, 57. Every class was down. All the schools had special events this morning.
We are thankful that this past week, Darwin decided that the men were never going to be able to clean the property off on their own, and he got some friends he knew who owned heavy equipment to go over and clear it all off in about 2 hours! What a blessing that was!
Tony will be traveling this week. Please pray for him as he travels and visits 3 of our supporting churches and has the opportunity to meet with a few of our pastors. Pray for Teddy and me as we are here while he is gone. He will be gone for about a week.
Thank you for your prayers for our family and for the ministry here in Manta. We are so thankful to know that God is in control and that he has a plan for us and for the work here.
God bless you as you serve Him!
Joy
