Weekend Update

We had a nice weekend here on Pohnpei, in spite of the bad weather we've been having. Saturday was a workday for the youth as they are starting to earn money for future missions trips and activities. They were able to earn $50 by cleaning a lady's yard in town.
Sunday services were good with a good attendance. We had about 85 in the morning service, including some returning visitors. Some very exciting news is that our church not only met our Faith Promise goal, but went over the goal amount! We are looking forward to an exciting year of missions giving!
Most of you probably already know that our next "big" project is to build our new church building. We have been working on the land and filling in the swamp area along our current property. A lot has been done already but still more to do. Please continue to pray for this project. I will try to get up some current photos this week of the work being done.

Thank you so much for starting your blog up again! It's wonderful to be able to "hear" how you're doing all the time! You haven't said, so I have to ask: How is your pregnancy coming along and when are you due? I think of you folks often and pray for you everytime I do.

your sister in Christ,
Mary

P.S.
the picture of the little girl sitting down in the hula skirt is me. The odd thing is when I tried to put in a name ...... well, you see what happened! LOL
