Mom-in-law JoAnn Hayden visited Tina Prelgovisk and I in Puerto Rico, the island where we live and work as missionaries. In spite of her 80 something years, she went on walks with Tina, helped out around the house, and even went with us on workdays to our new church building and did hours of good work.
We were especially touched when she presented us with a gift. Her late husband Joe Hayden had visited us here with her on the island and helped us in a number of ways. In lieu of flowers, she asked for donations to be made in his name toward advancing the work of missions on our mission field. The gift was presented in our Sunday morning service and our people expressed their gratitude to her and those who had contributed.
After visiting us, she flew to St. Croix, US Virgin Islands, to visit great-grandkids Ian and Abigail, our daughter Bethany, and son-in-law Abe Kennedy, pastor of Southgate Baptist Church. I'm glad she got to visit her great grand-kids and make some good memories with them,
We were doubly blessed to hear that Southgate Baptist voted to support us for $100 a month! Thank you, fellow islanders and near neighbors, your support is greatly appreciated!
Prayer Requests and Praise:
- We have water! We have electricity! We have insurance! They were a long time coming.
- We have begun Wednesday morning prayer meetings 10-11:00 AM. They are well attended. We are beginning Sunday School this coming Sunday.
- Chairs! A fellow missonary church is selling 52 upholstered chairs for $15 each. We would like to get them. That would be $780.
- Summer help! Scraping, painting, and building improvements need doing. Like to help? We could use people here to help in the work and others to help with the supplies. Your help is desired and deeply appreciated.
