Our latest update on Benjamin is that he is doing fine and recovering in the hospital still. They expect him to be there for about another week before moving into the guest house for further recovery. We praise God for how he has helped this life-saving event to happen, for everyone who gave to help it happen, and for all of your prayers and care for Benjamin.
I am writing this post from the El Sauzal orphanage near Ensenada, Mexico (we have an internet connection here- yeah~!) We praise God for how he has helped our team also. We are having a good trip and enjoying our time here with the children. Everyone has been healthy, and although our nights have been a little sleepless (thanks to a peacock which calls out all night, roosters, barking dogs, and sleeping on air mattresses) everyone is keeping a good attitude. It is not always easy to try to accomplish things in a foreign country (although they do have a Home Depot here)! Things are different than how we are used to doing them and it isn’t always easy to find (or make) what you need. But we are doing our best to tackle some improvement projects here, and hope that beyond our small repairs that the lasting impression will be that we were a reflection of Jesus to them.
Thank you for your prayers and support of all the work of Ten Talents, and I look forward to sharing pictures with you soon!
God Bless You,
Lisa
