Just a few more days

We only have a few days left...our time here has flown by! Today we have two sick little ones, Haynes has a stomach virus and Ella has an ear infection. Cathleen got Ella some antibiotic today and we are thankful to have something to blame a few crazy fits on:-) Haynes has a pretty high temperature, acts okay, but will complain about his stomach a lot:-( We are believing for complete restoration for our little family!

This morning I took Port on a breakfast date to Starbucks and then to our morning prayer meeting. Our prayer meeting was so fun today because we are so excited for all the amazing things God has already done here in Beirut but we are believing for even more over these next few days. We spent some time just celebrating and thanking God for all the amazing things He has done...Port LOVED it!

This afternoon we took the kids to play soccer on AUB's campus just to get some energy out of them. Port had a great time until we got kicked off the field, Haynes tried to play as much as he could until his tummy hurt too much. (that's a sign he doesn't feel great when he won't play soccer) We are taking some early naps because we are having a team dinner downtown tonight! Brian went to visit the neighborhoods around here during our naptime...can't wait to hear his stories.

Here are a few stories to report from the group that went to the Corneish...One group was praying for a little girl that was deaf. So many people started to gather that they had a crowd of people wanting them to preach after they finished praying...still believing for her ears to be open! Another group were ministering to some women. The women were so excited that they went and got the husband. He was so touched that he said he wanted them to come start reading the bible with his whole family (it was amazing that women were ministering to him and that the head of the household was being transformed!). Some girls went to a woman's home to follow up. They prayed for her to be healed and the woman told Melanie that she didn't need to translate the prayer she felt God heal her! We have made over 50 contacts for our long-term team to follow up with as they move to Lebanon.
