Thanksgiving!

God has been very good to me this past year and for that I give HIM thanks. Some recent/current things that I thank Him for are:

  1. Jesus is my Savior and I know that He is coming back soon!
  2. A hospital visitor did a total redesigning of the www.bongolohospital.org website and I have been able to keep it up!
  3. Eric and Wendy Hofman (Ophthalmologist) arrived at Bongolo Hospital, sent by Samaritan's Purse. Just before I left Gabon, Eric was able to take over the Hospital Bookkeeping that I was doing!
  4. I have had a good six month Home Assignment, mostly in Omaha!
  5. In June I celebrated 5 years as an ovarian cancer survivor!
  6. In August I celebrated my 60th Birthday!
  7. God has been with me and helped me as I have traveled and spoken in many churches these past months.
  8. I have been relatively healthy since being in the States. The asthma flair up that I have had this past month is about over!
  9. I was able to get an H1N1 flu vaccination at my Doctor's office last Friday!
  10. I have been able to see many relatives this summer and fall, including some cousins I had never before met!
  11. I leave for Gabon December 8th, two weeks from today!
  12. I have received my Entry Permit to Gabon (like a Visa)!
  13. Although I will have to pay for the third piece, the Airlines will accept three suitcases when I fly!
  14. My Nissan Patrol vehicle in Gabon is ready for my use!
  15. The Lord is helping me get all the "things" done that need to get done before my flight date!
  16. I get to celebrate with FOUR Thanksgiving meals, one last Sunday with cousins, one with ladies from Church on Monday and two on Thanksgiving Day ( Step Family and other cousins)! I like TURKEY!

"Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done, and proclaim that his name is exalted. Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world."

Isaiah 12:4-5 (New International Version)
