Many of you know my Dad has been through the wringer in the last several weeks and months due to an infection that developed in his hip joint this past fall after a clear period of good health for over one year. After a full removal of the hip prosthesis, and then a full hip replacement 10 weeks later, the infection reappeared at Christmas. So again the artificial hip has been removed, and again they are doing antibiotic therapy and possibly another opening of the incision tomorrow to place more antibiotic capsules in the tissue there. Once this happens, he will remain without a hip joint for several weeks and then, Lord willing, be taken back for a prayerfully clean re-installation. Really asking for miraculous sustenance through all of this and for my Dad's testimony of Christ to be shown to every caregiver in Hughston Clinic Hospital.
Pray for leading wisely, pray for my Haiti trip at the end of this month, and for the Lord to continually give clarity for His gospel in us and through us here and in Birmingham as Vickie works there for now in helping Kyle.
It was incredible to see all of you at Christmas and to sense the Lord's ministry to us through all of you.
In the name of Jesus Christ,
Chris (and Vickie from Birmingham)
Welcome to some pictures and letters of God's grace in our lives, and how God has brought our family to embrace the command of Christ to make disciples of all nations. Pray that He will use our lives to make His glory known in every nation. Ask Him for grace for the gospel not to stop with us!
Praying for you all, Chris and Vickie! How is your Daddy doing? And your Mom aside him?
ReplyDeletePraying for wisdom and guidance and miracles on many fronts for you. May God be glorified in all that surrounds you and your amazing family.
