Say "Hello" to my little friend....


I struggled to hand over the most enormous check I've written since I've been down here. Once it's gone, it's gone and there's nothing I can do about it but I had to take a leap of faith. I bought a car. Yes, I bought a red, four-door, 1998 Ford Escort (trying to help the Big Three out...) Now let me tell you, this was no easy thing. In the States you buy a car there is a mountain of paperwork, you're able to talk with the mechanic, talk with your mechanic to find out what's really wrong with it, etc. Not so in developing countries. Forget about long, drawn out paperwork. Speaking with a mechanic? Not likely unless you happen to know slang-Spanish (and he tells you the truth). What are you left with? Prayer. And that's what I've been doing since I've been down here and God has just answered enormously. Thank you all who have given to this cause/prayed for this to come to pass. It has truly been a huge answer to prayer!
