Parasha Vayechi & Kenya Trip Video

Shalom and Blessings.

Tuesday we had a full day at the hospital in Ramat Gan (Tel Hashomer Medical Center), as is usual when we go there. I met with the pulmonary technicians and underwent breathing exercises and tests. B"H, all was found to be normal...yay! Then I met with the pulmonary specialist who examined me, read my chart and discussed my history with regard to the possibility of me being exposed to toxic pollutants, work related airborne contaminants, and exposure to TB, when I was younger. In the final analysis he concluded that I had a serious lung infection probably brought on by pneumonia and because of my compromised immune system I am having a slow recovery. I was advised to get another chest x-ray in two weeks. If it shows clearing of the infection then no need for anything else, full recovery will come in time, if not clear, an additional CT of the lungs will be necessary and then we will go from there. The doctor felt confident that I will have total restoration and recovery in time, as do we, because God is in control. Thank you for your prayers, God is listening. We pray for everyone and love you all very much...

A member of our congregation in Nairobi was in a serious mini-bus crash involving multiple deaths and injuries. If any are acquainted with the bus system in Nairobi then you will understand that these mini-buses are poorly maintained and wildly driven. It is a miracle that there are not more crashes and deaths. Ellen and I have taken "Metatus," as they are called, many times and by the grace of God and through prayer while riding in one, God has kept us safe. Please pray for Rosemary's total and quick recovery. Tuesday she spent hours in the operating theater. I spoke with her Wednesday and we prayed together. Hospitals in Kenya are not like those in the U.S., Canada and Israel so she needs additional prayer for favor with the doctors and nurses so as to get the care and attention she deserves and needs.

Things are moving along here in Israel as we endure the rhetoric, lies and false promises that come with elections. If we did not know that God was in total control of the process, we could be taken in by the politicians. Cannot help but feel sorry for those who are unsaved and put their trust in these people. Something interesting, but typical for a fallen world is that; we do not have a government, we do not have a budget and as a result hospitals and health care providers are running short of money, but that did not stop the members of the Knesset voting themselves a pay raise this week. They will now earn 3.7 times the average national full time wage earner in Israel. Come quickly Lord Yeshua!!
