Thank you all so much for your prayers! Mike's hand is getting better! It is hardly swollen anymore... in fact, you can see his knuckles for the first time in over a week! He is finally able to bend his fingers and make a fist with his hand. We still have to return to the doctor on Monday but hopefully, he won't send Mike to see the hand surgeon. We really appreciate all your prayers! It was a scary (and painful) time! Please pray for a complete and total healing for Mike! (And as soon as we get the internet fixed, we hope to post pictures so you can see his balloon hand!)

We have a work crew here right now. They are from Grace Bible College in Michigan. They are doing a great job and working hard! We have been very impressed! They are a great group of people who seem to have unending energy! They work hard and play hard! In fact, today they finished their work early so they swam out to a reef that is a few hundred yards out and managed to catch a baby octopus. It was pretty cool! But then they killed it. They put it on ice and plan to cook it for dinner tomorrow. =) They have been fun and we have really enjoyed getting to know them!

Also, we have Spring Arbor University (from MI) coming tomorrow night too. It will be exciting to meet a new group of people and to get a chance to work with them!

Once again, thanks for your prayers and encouragement! We love you all!

Love,
