Lord where to begin! I am surely on a journey with God...So this past Monday everything was going very well....lessons and schedules in process for for going out to the villages for the women's training have been coming together annoucements to be made this coming Sunday .....Motor bike lessons had gone well and I was really getting the hang of shifting gears and everything:) But Monday afternoon after coming to a complete stop I lost my balance the bike and I hit the ground like a 100lb sack of sand being thrown out of a truck on to the ground. My hip took the major hit and instantly I felt and heard something crack!and then I could not walk but praise God the bike did not fall on me too. I was out at the Baptist church in Kajo Keji and the pastor there took me on my bike back to the compound where I have been living that was a painful ride....both pastors wives have taken very good care of me and I am so humbly thankful! So in cases like this in Sudan nothing happens quickly so I made it to Moyo.Uganda on Tuesday for an Xray and confirmed that I had fractured the collar of my femur bone had to spend the night in Moyo and the air ambulance picked me the next day to go to the hospital in Nairobi both Pastors wives stayed with me in the hotel...what a blessing from God...So finally on my way to Nairobi and some good pain medicine it had been a pretty rough couple of days. The doctors and nurses have been very good to me. Most likely I will have minor surgery to put a couple of pins/screws in my bone which could have me out of the bed within 4-5 days and walking on my own within 4-5 weeks with no surgery I would still heal but would most likely be on complete bed rest for 10-12 weeks That seems unimaginable to me...Dr Gakuu believes I will be completely back to myself walking just fine once I heal
PRAISE GOD!
Although I must admit that I was very disappointed that when I had to leave Sudan. I am clinging to Romans 8:28 that God will work all things for good to accomplish His purpose for those who love Him....
and Jeremiah 29:11
For i know the plans I have for you declares the Lord plans to give you hope and a future and not to harm you!
How amazing and abundant is our God!
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Please continue to pray for me and for the women in Sudan especially Rose Dima and Gloria Kaya that God will raise up strong leaders in this country that have a heart for God there by renewing this place!
I am not sure what date a time I will have surgery but I am praying for a quick recovery so that I can go back to Sudan and continue what God has already planned for me to do....I hope to heal right where I am and the finish my work and return in January 2009.....God is providing lots of time to study and prepare to continue to full fill His purpose....I am working on a lap top that has been loaned to me for a few hours this evening in my hospital room by a missionary here in Kenya..he is actually the pilot that flew me out of Uganda to Kenya....Please keep him and his wife in your prayers as well that the Lord will pour out blessing upon them. They have also offered to help me find a place to stay here while I recover after I leave the hospital.
I look forward to hearing from all of you as well.
In His Service always-
