Prayers for John David

This morning I received a phone call from Charlotte regarding John David needing our prayers. Recently he was diagnosed with having malaria and is receiving medical care as we speak. Please keep him, Charlotte, the girls, Linda and James (who is traveling with John David) in your prayers. The symptoms of malaria include: Pain in the abdomen or muscles; chills, fatigue, fever, night sweats, shivering, or sweating, diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting. Also common symptoms are: fast heart rate, headache, mental confusion, or pallor. Malaria is caused by parasites released through the mosquito bite which attack the red blood cells and body.

Again keep John David in your prayers as they begin their long trek home from Uganda. They will be in the US by Saturday.
