MIssionaries are Rich
Many Americans have the impression that missionaries are poor. There may be a bit of truth in this if we are compared only to our North American friends. As missionaries in the developing world, however, we are frequently confronted with the real truth that no matter how much we have "given up" to go to Africa, we have so much more than most people in the world. I remember being very sobered when I realized that the ball of mozzarella cheese that I bought for our Friday night pizza in Kenya cost more than most Kenyans make in a day.

Update on my mom
Just wanted to give everyone an brief update on my mom ...
Thanks so much for praying for her. She has been doing great. She is in the hospital right now for her 4th and final chemo treatment. Physically, she has responded well to the treatment and had minimal side effects.
For the sake of clarity, I thought I would let you some more specifics. In all her scans before her treatment, the doctors could not find any cancer in her body. These treatments were precautionary -- to kill any cancerous cells that they do not know about it. As far as the doctors are concerned, she does not have any cancer in her body. So, after this week, she will just go on a regular cycle of scans. Other than that, she's already healed. We praise God for that! I think in all my asking for prayer for her that we did not make that clear.
Here's how you can pray: Continued strength during this last treatment, that her body would recover quickly, and that all her scans from here on out woutld continulaly to be clean.
We are looking forward to Christmas break with mom not on treatments and being able to enjoy her grandkids again. Thanks for your prayers everyone!
