Count Your Many Blessings

"Count your many blessings, Name them one by one, Count your many blesssing, See what God hath done. WOW!!! Not only what He has done but what He is continuing to do. We have had a beautiful week-end and it is not over. Harlan and Barbi Moore arrived safely Friday evening and Jim & Colleen Copple arrived Saturday afternoon. We all met along with over 300 Swazi's at Sitsatsaweni for a beautiful Dedication Service of the Nurses house and the water system. The community has come together so much since we started this project in July. It is exciting to see them working together. Matron Anna said that she was about to close this clinic due to no place for the Nurses to live and that it was very hard to find Nurses to go there. Other than Nurse Ndlovu who had been there 4years without his wife and 2 children, no one wanted to come. Now Nurses are begging to come to this location. They have 2 very fine Nurses and Nurse Ndlovu's family will be joining him before Christmas.

We planned on feeding 200 people but we fed 350. God helped to multiply the food so all could eat. We have seen this happen here before. What a mighty God we serve.

Today we worshiped at Sharpe Memorial Church and again were blessed with the Spirit of God in the service. Harlan & Barbi sang which blessed us all.

All we can say is Praise God for His many, many Blessings.

Praise the Lord for the great report! I failed to update the class this morning on your activities this week-end. We have a Council meeting in a while and I will brief them. I visited Martha Mobley this week-is in rehab and having some other problems. Sue Rahhal always asks about you--she was ill with a virus and not out today, but I stopped at the nursing home to see her. Reagan Conrad sang in class--"When I Grow Up"--she will be 7 on Thanksgiving, so we sang to her. You two are high on our list of blessings! Love, MGD
