And we're back...

Post by JMG » Tue Oct 17, 2017 4:23 am

Hardly a full month in the tribe and we are back out in town. My wife is once again experience some troubles with her pancreas. One our mission nurses flew out on our last supply flight to draw blood from Jessi. The next day the doc e-mailed us and the results are not good. At this time our doc is not comfortable with Jessi being in the tribe so we will be living on the base for the foreseeable future. I will be traveling in and out of the tribe to teach. If things don't improve by December we might have to come back to the States for a year-long medical furlough. I'm tired.

God moves us in ways we don't always understand for His own purpose. Keep trusting in Him. Praying for Jessi's health and clarity in God's will for you and your family.

You always have my prayers, JM. I know how hard it can be. Please keep us updated.
