Medicine Delivered to Kolmerek

Things in Bor town and Kolmerek are doing well. My mother is feeling much better but continue to pray for her. I have spent most of this past week in Bor town and was able to hand out all the certificates to the pastors there in Bor town for the training they received. I also spent the week working on the dowry for my new bride. Things are very tough in that many other people are interested in this girl and the dowry is getting very high. Many of them have a lot more cows and things to offer but I am trusting God to work all of this out. I’m also working on getting a loan from other people that will help me in getting the cows and things I need to win the bride.
The medicine from the June 2008 trip is still being enjoyed by the people and has been delivered to the local pharmacy in Kolmerek. The people were very happy to receive the medicine and the pharmacy assistant has been helping the people with some of the drugs that don’t require a pharmacist to administer. My cousin who is a pharmacist is supposed to be coming soon and will be able to help the people even more by being able to give injections when one is required.
Please continue to pray for the people of Kolmerek as many are sick - we thank God that medicine is there now to help them. Pray for me and my mother’s health and also for God to work out this situation about the dowry for my wife, that God would be glorified through it all.
