Living in De-Nile



The hubby and I just got back from a conference in Cairo. While we had truly informative, helpful meetings during the day; we also got out to see some sites in the evenings. There were about 80 of us exchanging information and ideas about how to communicate the Gospel in some of the most difficult places in the world. The participants engage in letter writing, telephone counseling, internet ministry, and even tv and radio production. Mark did a presentation answering some technical questions and discussing statistical trends. During the meal times and our treks out to the pyramids I was thrilled to connect with several of the women, encouraging them and learning how to better pray for them. One woman is fearful of another war in her country this year, one woman is discipling a girl who is being beaten by her family, another wants to move to another country in the region to minister to women. Praise God for these faithful ones who continue to find their joy and peace in Jesus.

Where does a Cairo native go to buy his wheels?

Camelot

I clicked on the pic of Mark speaking at the conference, bacause I wasn't even sure it was Mark - clicking on the pic enlarges it - anyway, that is quite the communication device you have there Mark - can I get one in the States? I then clicked on the pic of the 2 of you in front of the pyramids for any hidden gems - but, no - only 2 of my favorite people in the world ..... half a world away.
We love you guys,
Don
