Greetings, and Prayer Please

Happy Sabbath. It's about 100 degrees and night has come. The bats are
dinging in the trees. Our bug light is on and a 12V fan is blowing on
our sleeping Gideon.

We just got back from the hospital where we got Gideon tested for
malaria. We are waiting for results and should get them anytime. He
barfed last evening and today he has been a little more fussy than
usual. His latest fever is about 101.3.

For his bath, however, he was fairly normal. For the last several days
we have a fun routine. I get my face down low next to his. He pauses in
suspense and then vigorously splashes in the water. Water splashes
everywhere, including on my face. Then I flap my lips and wipe my face.
Gideon giggles and laughs over and over again. He loves water and bath time.

Please pray that Gideon will sleep well and that he does not have
malaria. We may start treating him even if the test result is negative.
Pray that we will make the best decision.

The Bible school at Bongor was rescheduled again. The pastor called this
morning and said that his brother died this morning. "Could we postpone
the school another week?" he asked. The devil is hard at work. He knows
the importance of this training and is doing his best to disrupt it.
Please pray that we will be able to give this training and that many
people will decide to get ready for Jesus to come and to help others do
the same. We plan to postpone Bongor for now and turn toward Pala and/or
Broum Tousu next, then to Bongor in mid-late April.

Three churches will be erected (Lord-willing) near Bongor this coming week.

The Bendele church library is scheduled to open next week! There will be
a radio announcement. This is an exciting project we have been working
toward off and on for a couple of years now.

Looking at current events, even in the news recently this month, I
cannot see how this world will last much longer. Prophecy is clearly
being fulfilled, as accurately as ever before. We have it all spelled
out for us in Scripture and in books like The Great Controversy. Earth's
history is soon to close. We do not know when. God knows that. But we
can know that it is going to be soon. Be watchful and ready!
