Off to Malekula

We wanted to give you a brief update as we are waiting at the airport to fly off to the island of Malekula, (Warlop village) where we will be ministering for the next few days.

We have been having many adventures here in Vanuatu and are loving it! We were all totally amazed by the Yasur volcano and were able to stand right near the exploding lava sprays. You are not going to believe our pictures when we get home!!

One of the last times we did our drama and open air ministry there were multiple healings. One of them was a person that could barely see who got his eyes totally healed . OK, so that was even more exciting than the volcano! Please continue to pray that the Lord will continue to show himself strong through signs and wonders!

The weather has been very hot and humid lately. We got absolutely soaked last night in a rainstorm. It is difficult to keep things dry and get our tents functional again between travels, so we are hoping for drier weather ahead of us. We will be camping near the ocean the next few days so it should be a bit cooler anyway.

Some of us are a bit tired of all the "lap-lap", which is their national food. In our opinion it is all beginning to taste like burnt banana leaves. We are guaranteed to love anything you cook us when we get back home! :))

Prayer requests:
Continued safe travels-specifically for crossing a big river in the next day or two.
Continued good health - thanks for praying ...it's working!
Continued favor with the natives in each village and multiple salvations- body, soul and spirit.Thanks!

Hugs,
SOLD Out '09

Thanks for the updates! It is fun following your adventures,and hearing what God is doing.I only wish it were possible to post more often,but when you do post, it's like Christmas to me! Tell Ari that Annie misses her! She keeps telling me "There goes Ari!" when we are driving somewhere.
