Leaving Work to prepare for the trip



Last tuesday was my final day at Hydranautics. I am so grateful for the 3 years spent there. I learned a lot about the water industry, particularly reverse osmosis. I hope to use that skill and knowledge base in the future should the need arise during our mission trip.

There are so many kind people who work there, and my hope is that my friendship blessed them and encouraged folks as they contemplate walking with the Lord. I was able to share with several people there, on a one to one basis. A handful of folks gave their life to the Lord there after they heard the gospel. A few times there was powerful, miraculous answers to prayer for physical healing. I'll never forget my collegue's words after his back snapped back with no pain: He said "that fool healed me! I can't believe it!" I told him it wasn't me, I get no credit. Later on, I had a friend who had terrible leg pains and another who was scheduled for back surgery...but the doctor had to wait, because the Lord healed them.

The others I shared with? I don't know. Hopefully the seeds were planted and they will take root.

I'm especially grateful for the manager who hired me in my time of need (Rich), who is a Godly, Christian man. And I'm very grateful for my dear Christian friend Ric, who was a constant encouragement for me personally. He preached the Gospel with his life, w/o words first. And his life was miraculously spared after a terrible bout of leukemia.

Here's a picture of some other friends after they threw a potluck for me and tammy.
