Wonderful news and sad news
So many important things have happened. We want to share them all: Radwan's wife is pregnant, Pastor John's new baby died, Nassif's Malaria, a Lebanese wedding, John's promotion to sergeant, Joshua's blue belt, and more! You'll have to click on links to get more information. The greatest news came during the surprise phone call this afternoon from Pastor Gavin at Christ Community Church (CCC) Omaha. He called to let us know that the team completed their fund raising for their recent ministry with us. All the funds we needed for the orphanage supplies and Modeste Church School came in! In addition, the CCC College 8:08 group is partnering with the Modeste Bambara Church for their future facility construction plans. They will focus on raising funds for this project this fall.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for this sad and wonderful news. As our Lebanese sister Hyame says, "Everything that comes from God is good." Help us to see Your love in everything!

WOW! So much wonderful news to praise our LORD for-- and a babe in the arms of HIS CREATOR (sad but joyful)
thanks for the update and the news. we have been dealing with flooding over here. Our bridge over the Mississippi is open but at risk. The Ft. Madison and Burlington bridges have closed. Many levee breaks and many homes and businesses lost. I have not heard of any deaths or injuries.
FAther Bless those who are working to shore up the levees and protect the Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri towns. Be with those who have lost homes, businesses, and belongings. Give them peace and help them through this.

We were glad to hear of Josh & John receiving the rewards! We are also sorry to hear of Pastor John's new baby dying.
How is Yousseff? Our last word was that he was able to have the surgery for his lung cancer. We have been praying for his healing and salvation. Wade & Myrtie
Youssef is doing well. He still needs to go to Ghana to remove more dead cancer cells form his ling. Work has kept him from traveling.
So is John still in reserves then?
Promoted to Sgt. Does it mean he could still be called up again tho?
Thanks Brother!
We really appreciate your prayers too!
Yes, John is still in the Army National Guard for three more years. His unit is already looking at deployment to Iraq in June 09.
PTL. Louons Dieu! Praying for God's blessing.
Wonderful and sad as you say. I prayed for the needs here and I was so blessed to see all that is going on. What a great site you have developed and put so much work in to! How is Nassif doing now? I have prayed for Pastor John and his wife also.
God bless you all! In Our Dear Savior, Jesus

Hayme is right "EVERYTHING" that is from God is good we just don't think His thoughts and His ways. Sometimes it is overwhelming. I agree, help us Lord to understand it all.
God Bless you, Tim & Kim
It is wonderful to hear the good news. God bless you for the wonderful work that you are doing.
Please keep up in your prayers as we are going through a very tough financial stage in our church. We pray that God will lift us up and urge every heart to know the importance of their finances for the Kingdom. We trust Him to open the windows of heaven with his blessings. Thank you. God bless.
