Xanga Post Friday July 7, 2006

This will be quick.  I’m running low on battery on my computer.

First of all here’s a pic of Liza and me with our faces painted.

Next is a picture of a girl named Randy.

Randy has TB and is HIV positive.  Her only medical treatment comes from a clinic on the campus of Refilwe run by volunteers.  She is not responding to her TB treatment and is on ARV’s for her HIV.  As you can tell from the pic, she is in good spirits most of the time.  She wants to grow up to be a nurse to help other sick people.  Please, pray for her healing and for God to continue working in her life.

My new African name is Themba.

Lastly, I’ll close with another Alphie pic since so many of you are now in love with him.

Blessings.  See some of you soon.

    im sure mom (and randy) have told you that she is my favorite (we all have our favorites) and i have spent many days crying, holding her, praying over her when she is sick, at her worst. i have been praying in faith for her healing and i know the lord is going to be faithful and give it to her. she believes that she can be healed and “if we believe we will receive”. if you can please give her a huge hug and kiss for me and tell her how much i miss her.
