Adventures In Madagascar

Missions Trip to Madagascar Reminder

Since the  Hamiltons  will  be  traveling back to the US this fall and winter,  we  have  changed our trip  date to July of 2008.   We  are  going  first  and  foremost  to  be  a blessing to  the Hamiltons.   While there,  we  hope  to  put on one or more "workshops" for the midwives     and    other    medical professionals  in  and around Diego.   In addition,  we would like to  bless  the  medical  professionals with a gift that will help   them   in   their   practice.    Please   pray   for  David, Deborah,  and  Kristin  as  they  seek  God's direction for the specific topics to address in the  workshop(s).   Also  pray  to see  whether or  not  God  would  have  you  join  us  on  this adventure.   It will, no doubt,  change your life as you go to serve  the  Hamiltons  and  the  Malagasy  people.    We will have the official  "sign-up"  at the beginning of 2008.   More details to come.


 David, Deborah, MarLee and Liam Hamilton

We  send  our  love  and prayers  to  the Hamilton family!
 

Tidbits from EBONY

  Babies in Ebony
Need Your Prayers

From one of my colleagues in Ebony:

"This picture is of a 4 month old that I saw in the hospital on Sunday. She weighs 2kg (4.4 pounds, smaller that a premature newborn). I have seen too many such infants lately. Three weeks ago, I examined an 8 month old baby who was starving and had pneumonia. The parents refused to take her to the hospital, even when I offered to pay and do all of the work. They said it was just too much trouble. She died a week later."

My Grandfather

My travels have taken a pause as I sit with my grandfather in California.  He is not well and very near the end.  I feel called to stay with him and delay my trip to China.  I'll be here until Mid-July.  This is a special time and the Lord is near!

Love, Elizabeth

 

 'Behold, I will bring them from the north country, And gather them from the ends of the earth,
 Among  them the blind and the lame, The woman with child and The one who labors with child,  together,
 A great throng shall return there...And My people shall be satisfied with My goodness, says the LORD.'
 Jeremiah 31:8, 14
