"...the waters returned from off the earth continually..."

In one of our earlier posts, Steve said:

"The Bible refers to “the enemy coming in like a flood”, and that’s about the extent of the cholera situation in Allegre, at the GTH CTC (cholera treatment center)." 


Now I am reminded of the verse in Genesis, in which Noah was waiting in the Ark, until the waters dried up:
"And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end... the waters were abated."
The situation here has greatly improved, and it seems that the flood waters are receding! The last day or two, we have only had a few new people come in, and they haven't been very severe.


We have a total of only 5 people in the CTC today!
Praising God for His goodness, and for answering our prayers!!

We even have some beds put up now!
It is such a blessing to be able to catch our breath, after such a busy time...

Jared is pumping up the Gator tire, after making a run to the dumping site.


We do have one little guy that's about 18 months old, that has been in the CTC for several days; he just isn't bouncing back as we expected him to. We think he was malnourished to begin with, and had cholera on top of that. Anita is going to try giving him some supplements today; hopefully that will help him out. Would you pray for him? I'll get some pictures of him, and put them on later...


Have a blessed day, and thank you again for all you do! God is working in a mighty way here, and we are so thankful...
