This past week has been a little difficult for me due to a chest infection that I picked up. I did not attend the Sandy Bay BWA, or Tuesday's Cape Villa Bible study or Wednesday's Deadwood study. An x-ray has revealed that the lower lobe of my right lung has collapsed. The doctor that I saw was not very communicative, but luckily Dr Sarel Bloem (no prizes for guessing his nationality) arrived back on the island on Sunday, so I will make an appointment with him and ask him numerous questions.
I only missed one day at work, but did some 'heavy breathing' for a few days. I hate feeling useless, and when my lungs are not working properly, it gives me a sense of satisfaction that I can still do office work.
The RMS arrived on Sunday. The Consulate needs extra temp staff during the week between its arrival at St Helena, and its return to South Africa. (The hotel is fully booked for these 8 days). So ... Arthur is working in the courtyard and garden area - sweeping, washing down tables, watering plants, etc. He spoke on the 'gospel hour' on Radio St Helena last Thursday, and will be sharing St Fm's gospel hour this coming Thursday afternoon with Tammy Williams. It is great that there is such a tolerance of straight gospel preaching on St Helena. We pray that it will have the desired result - lives changed and brought into a relationship with the living God.

I am so sorry that you are under the weather. We will certainly be praying for you!
ReplyDeleteIt is good to hear that Arthur has gotten some work, even if it is temporary.
And so good that you can still do your office work even being sick - the Lord is good!
