fresh green cow dung, anyone?

Creative cooling. Yesterday I experienced a cool breeze--most refreshing--but then I had to close the refrigerator door! Oh Well.

Truly though, yesterday we shopped for necessary things to begin living in Guyana and then at 4pm we took a break at a very civilized place. The Oasis is a free wireless internet Starbucks type of place with real coffee (not instant), nice reasonable food—even a buffet at lunch and yummy desserts, with air conditioning and service! All in one place—amazing.

We do really need your prayers though. Everyone in our extended family is going through newly discovered difficulties that we all need God’s wisdom and grace for. Terri will have more in our next email update.

2 missionaries here in Guyana have emergency health needs. One has a shoulder that quit working due to Bursitis and the other has internal bleeding.

We will be going to Berbice after the weekend, then back to here to Georgetown, and then back to Berbice—all next week, Lord-desiring.

One parting note—Our new to us car just ran the Guyanese gauntlet. While driving the speed limit, a van pulls past us on the shoulder of the road, we swerve to allow that van to not run over a bicyclist in front of him and then an on-coming car splatters our car and windshield with freshly deposited cow dung. Have a nice day.
