Dearest one … 

It was a true joy to launch this most recent team, heading to I/K, L, and J.  You may be wondering if I miss these trips, as I traveled extensively for almost 15 years.  Of course I do!  Yet I have great peace and contentment concerning staying back and supporting them from start to finish.  With all that is going on ‘there’ and ‘here’, I feel grace’d upon that I am still able to pour my life into both!!! 

   

This team is already having a remarkable journey, in how they have been able to:  
*   serve gifts to the refugees brought from the USA in medical supplies, clothing, etc. 
* hold a ‘time of refreshing’ conference
* meet with key leaders to encourage and bolster them 
* meet with key diplomatic leaders to further expand our influence in the region 
* meet with key Syrian refugees and leaders who are serving needs in their home country of Syria 
* start and further lifetime relationships that will extend exponentially via ZOOM and other communication venues 
* distribute wheelchairs via the Lebanese military, due to ‘special’ connections 
* have fun and eat too much of that mouth-watering Lebanese food !!!  🙂   
         

Nora’s health 
Several months ago, we communicated we were concerned after Nora had an MRI of her brain.  She has experienced chronic fatigue, difficulty remembering appointments, and where she puts things, etc..  Since then, we have pursued more medical opinions (Thank you, Chip Pettigrew … and others!!!) and evaluations. Last week, she was finally able to get in for an extensive neurological-psychological evaluation that lasted 4+ hours.  She left exhausted!  More pursuits of how to best proceed are ahead, as both the MRI and N-P have indicated measures of memory decrease.  And while we are not consumed in concern now, we are seeing ‘something’ there, and will take all actions for preventing further memory loss, and possibly even reversals.    At present, she has chosen not to pursue any vocational activity, as we evaluate what lies ahead for her and us as a family.  

Dan’s health
Besides being impatient with my age and recovery speed, I am doing fine, after my surgery bout in July.  I joke that I simply cannot bounce back like I did when I was 61!  LOL !  I ain’t no young’n anymore.  🙂 

Dan,
Nora and I are so grateful for you and your continued choice to be with us on this journey!   

In truest “word” …

    Praying for all the teams and for “Team Emig”! Mary Kindness: Martin Luther King Quote Everybody can be great… because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love.
