Updates

Kerri's Health:
Kerri is doing much better. She has not had any episodes since last Thursday and is off all medications except for the blood thinner. Her first appointment with the neurologist, since being released from the hospital, is scheduled for next week. This appointment will help us in determining the timeframe for our return to Zambia. Please continue to pray for her health and wisdom for us as when to return to the field.

Speaking Engagements:
Since being home, Kerri and I have had the opportunity to share about our ministry with a few churches and small groups. This past Wednesday, we shared at CLC. This is a group of believers primarily from BlueCross BlueShield who meet once a month to encourage one another in their personal walks with Christ. The time went pretty well and it was good catching up with many of our friends who I haven't seen since leaving BlueCross.

We will continue to be on the road speaking with different churches through the middle of February. This Sunday, we share with a Sunday school at First Baptist Church of Columbia and then I will be sharing during the sermon time at Rehobath United Methodist Church. After that, we travel to Whitmire, S.C. and Hartsville the following Sunday, followed by a trip to one of our supporting churches, Lake Oconee Presbyterian, in Georgia the weekend of the 15th. Please pray for us as we share about what God is doing through ACTION's ministry in Zambia.

Our Zambian Pigs:
Since we've been in the States, our two pigs have become escape artists. If you don't remember, we bought some pigs to investigate the costs associated with raising and breeding them. It was an effort to see if piggeries were a viable income generation activity in Zambia. Unfortunately, for Wilburn and Fern, there isn't a spider weaving encrypted messages in her web in an attempt to save them. So, due to us being out of the country, the pin not being able to hold them and our inability to care for them, we decided to find them a new home - Hog Heaven!
