The Missionary in Lebanon we are praying for - Gale update (dieing of cancer)

 This is actual email from her Husband David.  Last names removed for safety of those in Lebanon.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Gale can no longer use her legs.  Her right arm is nearly limp as well.  The pain in her lower abdomen is a concern.  Apparently it's a tumor(s) … and this is uncomfortable.  It is a joy to serve Gale at this time and we really have no complaints.  Yes, it's a bit hard at times but isn't it amazing how God brings blessings right in the midst of such tough times?

This morning Gale seems especially tired… she even said something like, "It may be my time to depart."  We are being cared for by local believers who soooooo kindly bring meals every 3rd day…….. and sometimes more often.  They also drop by to sit with Gale so I can run errands.  We are sensing the love of the body of Christ.

I'll keep you posted.  I know Elijah and Liz are hoping to come fairly soon.  Our old friend / adopted son -- Boulos is here with us.

Love to you,  David
