We are in Brisbane with Lynne and Eileen, friends we have known since the
early '90's. It has been nice to just relax for a few days in good company
and enjoy the sites of this part of Australia. In between rain storms we
have even seen a bit of sunshine!
Eileen is also leaving today, flying to Southern Sudan for a 4 week period
as a translation consultant helping several language groups who are
working on their NT translations.
Sunday we went to their church - a morning service and an evening service.
During the evening service we had a chance to talk about some of our work
in the Solomons.
We are leaving on the 3:30 A.M. (Ed. Ad-lib; that will be Tuesday in Australia and 10:30 a. m. Monday in Armstrong!) shuttle bus which takes us to the domestic
airport in Brisbane, then on to Sydney to the international airport to fly
to Vancouver.
It has been quite a journey -- and it is almost over. The time has gone
very quickly. As you have read our blog, I hope you have seen yet another
glimpse of God's steady faithfulness!!!
Just as we were preparing to leave for the airport in Honiara, we checked
our email one last time.
This is what it said.
“Hello,
We had an unusually long ante-natal clinic today, finishing at 5-30pm rather
than lunch-time, but the staff were delighted that the toilets flushed all
day - not heard of before! So thank you again for your effort which is
already appreciated.
Glad that you both got seats & hope you like the photos attached.
Love from Jenny & Graham
Helena Goldie Hospital
PO Box 166, Munda
Western Province
Solomon Islands”
Thank you for your prayers and being part of our team!!
Until we meet, trusting God for an uneventful safe flight to Vancouver.
Margreet and Henk DenOudsten
