Thanks for your prayers as James and Cindy Borody traveled to and from
Egbe hospital in Nigeria. They were very aware of God's hand of protection over them
in the many miles of air travel and the long road trip from Abuja to Egbe.
They met a team of 13 people from Canada and the US
who accompanied us to Egbe in 2 vehicles. They were blessed to ride in the air
conditioned one! The team was part of the the Egbe Revitalization Project. It
was a joy to meet them all and get to know them during our week
together.
James was kept busy in the lab with some repairs,
training, and retraining! He enjoyed being with the lab staff again who he had
met in January. They were thrilled to have him back - and prayed that the
Nigerian border would be closed so he could stay longer!
Cindy saw her housekeeping staff that she had
worked with on our previous trip. They were still doing a good job in keeping
the hospital clean. A huge blessing for Cindy was seeing a young girl that she
had taught in the local school beside the hospital in Jan. The girl was in the
hospital with her family visiting her sister who had just had an appendectomy.
The girl recognized Cindy from 7 months ago, called her by name, and even sang
the song Cindy had taught the class! Needless to say, it was a very special
moment for Cindy. We never know who we are going to touch with God's love, or
what kind of impact we will make.
Cindy was also able to help the new MK teacher on
the Egbe compound to set up her one room school. What a blessing for her to be
able to share her skills and experience in this area with a young woman who will
take on the teaching responsibilities of the Egbe MKs.
God's perfect timing was evident throughout the
entire week. Many stories of his faithfulness, protection, provision, and grace
could be told. Their long journey back home gave them time to reflect on all that
had transpired during their time there.
Thanks again for standing with WWLAB in prayer. The Borodys had
an amazing week, and give Him all the glory that they could be a small part of
reaching the people of Nigeria with the gospel.
