December 31

To quote one of our favorite doctors here, "Hello, hello, hello." Every day he triumphantly enters the room that way with his middle eastern accent. The nurses affectionately call him Bob the Builder because, well, he looks like Bob the Builder. With a mustache. Or so they say. I just looked up a picture of Bob the Builder, and I'm not so sure. Anyway, this doctor is a repeater. He says most everything twice. "Hello Bawbra, hello Bawbra." You get the picture. Like I said, though, he is an exceptionally good and caring doctor who always encourages us and always tells us to pray!

Barbara is needing a lot of encouraging right now. She continues to progress very well, albeit slowly. But she is going bonko stir crazy. As well you could imagine. No, maybe many of you can't. I'll bet a few of you know what its like to be trapped in a tiny room for an extended period of time. Add in immobility and difficulty communicating, and you get the picture. Please pray today that God will heal Barbara's spirit and help her to experience joy here in the fire.

Really, that's all I have to say. Oh, except praise the Lord for the WONDERFUL way His Holy Spirit moved among us again today in worship. One lady shared that she came expecting God to do something amazing! Now that's the way to come to worship! We had a covenant service and the presence of the Lord was in the house.

Hi Greg--We're pleased your worship service went so well today. In our worship service today, the song that spoke to me was the line in Great is Thy Faithfulness" which says: "All I have needed, Thy hand hath provided...." We look forward to meeting your Dad and his family at Gray Brothers Cafeteria tomorrow in Mooresville. It's always good to see them. We pray that God will place His hand on Barbara to heal her spirit and give her peace, that He will continue to heal her physically and emotionally, and that He will supply your physical, spiritual and financial needs. In Christ's name we pray, Amen.--Gene and Marcia
