It is still early Zambia time, we've only finished breakfast. Just an update for all you at home, but we are in definate need of prayers here. This morning we received the news that the doctor has resigned. Apparently things didn't hold up very well during the month Keith and Ida were gone. He said he would finish todays rounds and then he would be finished. Hopefully Keith and Ida gained an extra day by claiming that they havent accepted his resignation yet. Dr. John is the only doctor at the hospital at Mwandi, so this loss would absolutely devistate the hospital, as well as creating alot of stress for Keith and Ida. Jon and Cindy will probably be visiting him later in the day, giving him a little loving pastoral care. This announcement was so sudden and unexpected that everyone here is kind of in a frenzy, trying to figure out exactly what is going on. So please please please be praying for guidance for all those involved with this doctor fiasco today, especially Keith and Ida.
We also just received unfortunate word that Stella, a lovely lady who works in Simba (the house we're staying in), her mother has just passed away this morning.
Im just waiting around with my dad- were supposed to go into Livingstone today to get supplies for the Hippo house.
Blessings to all.
-Cheers-

Laura... Emily... John... all... Just in case you need any referrals I have a friend at International Justice Ministry (IJM) who is contacting their Lusaka office to see if they may be able to be of assistance in locating and/or securing MD personnel for the hospital. More to follow (I hope... and soon, I hope).
