Jessie and Cory::
·
Continued closeness in the midst of being
surrounded by our teammates and ministry happenings
·
Also a praise to fill you guys in on, some of
you may or may not have known that Cory’s eye was bothering him and we didn’t know
what was wrong, but now a week later his eye is completely better and he is
wearing his contacts again!

One of the guys at the church, Alex, was hurt in an
accident and had a seizure due to his injuries, so pray for his health and recovery.
Also his dad was with him in the accident and broke 1 arm, 7 ribs, both legs
and his back, so please definitely be praying for his recovery. He was taken to
Quito in order to get treated, but from the updates we are getting from the
church we hear that he is doing well and on the road to recovery.

Ulysses is our ministry contact for the church
at KM 17, and we found out this past week while working in the fields with him
that he has been sick for the past 6 months and does not know what is wrong
with him. One of the girls on our team, Lauren, is studying to be a doctor so
she gave him a shot, so we are praying that he will be healed but we would love
to have you guys join us in those prayers!
