I don't know if I mentioned this before but all the workers and personal associated with our charity in Swaziland "Community Connections" has embroidered this on all their Jackets and shirts
We are For Social Profit
As they work and go around the country of Swaziland people are always stopping them and asking about the charity and these words explain it all:)
I don’t even know where to begin about my leg; something happened that is almost to UNBELIVABLE to even share? On Sunday I was invited to speak at the Community Gospel Chapel on Salt Spring Island. We haven’t been to church in 4 months so it was just wonderful to sit and enjoyed the singing and praises to God. The people were so warm and hospitable and I sensed a real sincerity in their church that I have not felt in some other churches.
Anyways I was not sure what I was going to say until a few minutes before it was my turn, they told me I only had 10 to 12 minutes and not to worry if I go over because they have a trap door in the floor and I’ll just end up in the basement LOL. I’m sure that many of you know how hard it is for me to talk about my passion for charity work in less than an hour:) Well a few minutes before I hobbled up front I finally figured out what to say, and I think I did it in less than 25 minutes :):)
After I was done talking the elder of the church asked me to stay up front and he called Jackie up too, he said he was impressed that they should all pray for my leg and he invited anyone who wanted too, to come up front and gather around me and pray. Well I think nearly the whole church came up and prayed. As I sit and write this I am still amazed at what happened! Before Sunday I was on 3 Advil and 2 Tylenol ever 3 to 4 hours just to mask the pain enough to try and walk. Well since their prayers I have had no pain and I’ve needed no painkiller at all! The next morning I woke up and Jackie went to change the bandages and when she unwrapped it she gasped when she saw it because it was nice and pink and the hole caused from the necrosis is starting to close nicely. The doctors said this would take 8 to 10 weeks to close but it had only been 9 days since I was bit. I thought about posting a before and after picture but I think the before is too gross to put here?
Well I have seen a few Unbelievable things but this one is an absolute miracle thanks to some wonderful Christian people who believe what they preach.
