10/22/2011 Tammy was very ill, but now getting much better

Sorry for the lack of updates recently.

Tammy and I are in the hospital right now getting care for a terrible virus Tammy picked up.  She was vomiting quite a bit, and couln't even eat small things or drink water.  Our friends from the church took us over to the hospital and we're getting great care here from the staff.  Tammy's improved quite a bit now, and the fever and nausea are gone.  Headaches are gone.  Doctors suspect the virus was transferred through mosquito bite and it is possibly dengue fever.  They are not sure yet, as they are taking the blood tests and waiting for it to distinguish itself with certain symptoms.  But anyways, we hope to get out of the hospital in the next day or two.  Initially they said it could be a week if it were dengue fever, but Tammy's much better now.

Thanks for praying for us!

Lots of good things happening here at Ao Udom Church, but i'll have to update you later.  Please continue to pray for us to finish disciple the young men named "M", "Came", and the young lady "Wa".  We are at the stage where we will try to make them ready to teach others.  Please pray for the college ministry, which Pastor Tae and Ajan Fang would like us to help with.  The church doesn't have a whole lot of college kids yet, and thus far it hasn't been easy for us to bring some of the college kids we are friends with in the neighborhood into a commitment to come to visit church sunday morning.  

Tammy continues to do great things with the english ministry, and the students (young and old) love to learn from her class.  She often has opportunities to share about Jesus to some of her new found friends.

Me, I'm busy here and there with the water factory, fine tuning stuff and detecting different scenarios where the machinery can fail when you are not watching it.  So we're working out kinks.  Before interaction had to be taken every 20 minutes or so, and now we did some new things where we don't need to interact for more than 2 hours.  Praise God. 

Please pray for continued financial support for this project as developing a factory takes time and resources.  Please pray for many new customers to come from this, once we get our FDA approval.

God bless,
Alex
