"To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children, to earn the approbation of honest critics; to appreciate beauty; to give of one's self, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived--that is to have succeeded." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Chad needs your Prayers
Please pray for God to control the political situation in Chad. Some Rebels from Sudan (Darfur region) have taken over the capital of N'Djamena today and may overthrow the current government. Sarah is located far from the capital in a small village off the main roads, so should not see results from the fighting. They have a contact in N'Djamena to keep them informed by ham radio. Your prayers would be appreciated. See comment section for link to the latest news in Chad.

ReplyDeleteHi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteBoth Greg and I have been reading your stories and those of the docs this weekend. We are amazed and inspired by all that you encounter. It's definitely a walk of faith and we are blessed just hearing about your journey. Hang in there and know life will be far too tame once you return stateside!
All the inequity and suffering you process there is a big reminder to me that we were made for eternity. I know it's tough but God will make it right one day! Courage and blessing to all of you.
