I am not sure what happened to the month of September, can someone tell me if October stole it away??? This has been a month that has been very productive and yet unproductive. You know, it’s one of those months where you got things accomplished, but it wasn’t really what you had in mind.
We have so much to look forward to in October. My dear friend Dr. Jane Jennings is coming to Pak with my other dear friend Dr. Susan McCollum. They are both part time volunteers at the hospital. Jane and I have grown so close over these last few years, and she is a dear and sweet granndmotherly type to me and my children. She is one of those people who you know truly LOVES you. It’s nice to have those people in your life.
I will update the children. Christian is sleeping tonight under the stars in the Himalayan Foothills. The 10th grade class has gone on a hike this weekend and he went with them. He is enjoying this school year so much! I knew he would, and yet we are so sad he is so far away. Jesse, Hollis and Derek are all doing okay. They rode on a donkey cart today, which made their day. Derek’s handmade bunk bed was delivered today (on a donkey cart) and after it was unloaded all the kids (plus Nannette Howard and Carlie Howard) rode on the cart around the compound. They were having so much fun and it was fun to see them enjoying themselves. They get torn emotionally here. They really miss some aspects of home, yet when they find something here they enjoy, they REALLY enjoy it. Jesse told Wendy the other day that he would like to come back here when he is older. I hope he does just that too. Although this place can be intimidating at times, there is so much goodness we see here. Please pray for our family that we continue to follow God’s will for our life and that He continues to bless us as he has done thus far. What an awesome God we serve!
Wendy is doing okay. She gained some experience the last time we were here, and she is definitely using it to her advantage this year. She is cooking more, seems less stressed out about things, and as she told me today, “She is taking it day by day”. I will take that as a positive 
The hospital is doing really well. The work, focus and direction that we have given to it is paying off. That hospital has so much potential in the ARP church and the majority of our 38,000+ members really don’t have a clue about it’s greatness!! We are making a difference is people’s lives both spiritually and physically. One quick example. One of the doctor’s shared this story with me: A patient came into the hospital for his regular check up and he told about how he was a secret believer. He had been a patient of ours before, and the hospital made an impact on him, and he decided to forego his religion, and take up the cross. Now, he is a secret believer, because he would probably be killed if he came out as a follower of Christ. But he wanted to share it with the doctor , I find this amazing. How many of our patients are secret believers, or have become secret believers because of this hospital? I know of one! Praise The Lord!!
I need to go, please know that we are doing well. Our support is still below where it should be. If you should feel the desire to help in our work here, please partner with us and send your support to World Witness c/o Branham Support One Cleveland Street, Suite 200, Greenville, SC 29601.
Thanks and God Bless!
I love the delivery truck that brought your furniture—looks like fun riding on it. Tell Hollis we still consider her a member of our Sunday School Class and even the kids will mention her and our prayers are with your family as you do God’s work. Also, miss Wendy at Night Circle, know that we miss you all and pray for your safety and glad to hear things are improving with the adjustments. Love to you all—Mot
