inch long scar

hi everyone! i went to the dr. yeaterday and he unwrapped my hand. it looked pretty good, purple and blue from bruising but the incision looked pretty. i syill have to keep it wrapped up and can't use my hand until next thursday! i think because of the location of the incision he fears if i use it too soon it could come open. poor greg! he is doing everything!cooking, dishes,hair, sooomuch! the boys have been a big help too! they have been helping annie a lot by pouring juice or getting things she needs. they are all great! you don't realize how much you use your hands until you can't use one of them. ok enough of this boring stufff..you wanna hear something cool?

last night greg came back from discipling our "new leader." his name is prisilliano and he has never really accepted this position as leader but WE knew that is who God had planned to do this job. So....last night greg came home all excited and said, "He accepted!" Me:"Huh?" greg~"Pris~ said he would be the leader!"we were both very happy to now have a leader in place before we leave. his face then fell and he said i am still bummed that no one responded to our call to be baptized. (we had a baptism scheduled for this Sunday the 17th) he continued and said how he thought he had taught it clearly and how the first thing Jesus says to do after someone decides to follow Him is to be baptized. I tried to encourage him that, yes he had taught it well, and many may just not be ready at this point. i then said, ya know how they are, they are last minute people, there is still time! He kinda shrugged and walked off. No kidding....not 5 minutes had passed and knock,knock,knock. (it was 9:30 pm)One man who we had been praying for came by to tell Greg that he and maybe another guy wanted to be baptized! Heehee! God is good! Please pray more will follow! They decided to change the date to have more time to plan. The new date..............................................................................MAY 24, 2009.......................................................
yes...that is exactly one year from the day Annie had her accident. Ironic? No...that is GOD! So, Annie's accident brought them all together and we now have a church and we will be celebrating with a new believers baptism one year later! Yay God! Love you all!

So...Katie,to answer your queston, we will be having a baptism to celebrate Annie's healing after one year!
