Plans to do training in Waldensian Valley

Ron and Bobbie are planning to visit the Waldensian Valley next month to conduct health and wellness training. Danielle Seban has been working among the people there for about 10 years. This is a very special place in the history of God's people. They suffered unspeakable persecution taking a stand for truth.

Elder's wife healed by prayer

Village Health Training


Training in the dark, outside.

Typical village

Welcomed by ADRA

Ron and Gatbel (Sudanese living in US) spent over two weeks in Ethiopia and S Sudan and one week in S. Africa last month. They experienced many miracles as God opened doors for further work in bringing hope and healing. Miraculously, they were able to secure legal NGO (nongovernment organization) status, allowing more freedom and privileges in working there. They were able to do Village Health training--sometimes in the dark outside. God performed many miracles. One was the healing of one of the Elder's wife suffering from malaria. She was laying on a cot in front of their thatched hut, unable to lift her head. After examining her, Ron prayed for her. About 10 minutes later she walked into the training session Ron and Gatbel were conducting. She spent the rest of the day there. Future plans are for further training of volunteers to do Village Health and possibly several clinics as well as a medical launch on the Nile River to reach villagers in that area of S Sudan. We solicite your prayers and support as God opens these doors of opportunity.

Sabbath, Feb 27 Report from Chris Howard

Well, today was my last scheduled work day here...we were short of staff. There is always a constant flow of people coming in and out. I was the only mental health provider so I saw patients all day with my interpreter. Many of the people are dealing with 3 layers of distress...the trauma of the earthquake and everything coming down around them, the loss of their relatives under the rubble, and the fact that they are now having to live out on the street with perhaps not even a shelter, and a lack of food and water. I teach them some coping skills. Let them know they are not crazy and that over time their minds will gradually heal.
Tomorrow we are scheduled to have someone take us in a van to Santa Domingo starting at 8 am. I hope he shows up. Tonight we are having the first sustained rain of the trip. I am trying not to consider the possiblity of landslides in the mountains on the road we will have to travel on through the mountains of Dominican Republic. Anyway it should be an adventure.

PLEASE PRAY FOR THEIR SAFE RETURN.
