Prayer Requests:

The 4-day trip (January 14-17) to a village 7 hours from Iquitos to take the rest of the gift baskets and to tell the Christmas story to the children, and show Christian movies and teach the church

My team—health and energy to share the Word of God with the children and the churches

Rain to cool things down and fill the rivers so that we can reach the village

Abed's time with us in Iquitos (ring bearer)

Energy for Josue's mom Mama Luz who has been sewing daily for the wedding the last two weeks

Me—my stomach still hurts and I have headaches and fatigue. I vomited and had diarhea all day Friday; that night I went to the hospital, where, after three hours of liquid drips for dehydration, the doctor told me that I have an intestinal infection (possibly parasites or food poisoning); he gave me another round of antibiotics (the 4th in the last few months). I have been in bed all weekend. Pray that I am well enough for the river trip and that God heals me completely
