Borrmann Update October 2, 2006

Adeline had her appointment with the pediatric Pulmonologist and was given a thumb up. The test for cystic fibrosis came back negative, meaning she is clear of that disease. Praise God! The next step is to see an allergy specialist on October 10th, to see if her pneumonia and asthma is directly related to allergic reactions. This appears to be the situation. We would appreciate your continued prayers for wisdom for the doctors in determining what is happening with Adeline and an appropriate course of treatment.

Brandon’s protein levels are back within the normal range. It’s difficult to understand the reason behind the high reading was actually normal; it seems a high reading would be bad no matter the cause. But evidently when it is high after walking around in the morning it is caused by the body excreting the extra protein stored up from the night before, as was the case with Brandon.

Our commissioning service on October 15th edges ever closer. Our intention was to send out personal invitations but we had some problems with our printer locking up. Many have inquired about coming and we wanted to let you know, in case you don’t get the invitation in time that the commissioning will occur in the morning service at 10:45 am. In Sunday school, we plan to show a brief multi-media presentation about our time on deputation. Scott will be preaching in the PM Service. If you are interested in attending, and need housing or have questions, please call us, 704-473-0602 (Scott’s Cell) or 704-473-3950 (Deb’s Cell)

Green Meadow Bible Baptist in Kalamazoo, MI just took us on for support which puts us at 95%. We are praying the Lord would allow us to be at 100% by October 15th, our commissioning day.
Outfit and passage money is steadily coming in and we are now over 53% of our needed amount. It would be difficult to list many gifts, ranging from $100 to $5,000, which we have received towards this need. Not as difficult though as it is to find the right words to express our gratitude for the financial sacrifice of others in a desire to help us arrive in Uruguay. God bless you all for your generosity and heart for world-wide missions.

Thank you to all who emailed to let us know you were praying with us about the house. Sadly, nothing came of the showings so the house still needs to sell. We are waiting to hear back from some companies we contacted that specialize in real estate investment. It sure would be nice if they would buy the house.
