As a community, our spirits are good…

We will be cutting the generator in about an hour until dusk tonight.  We had a relatively peaceful night, although gunfire continued sporadically throughout the night nearby.

I think people slept well; most adults slept with our 2-way radios glued to our ears to keep posted by our guards and staff members who are posted to \’watch the road\’.

This is getting old; I\’m reminded, though, of those who live this way days, weeks, months, even years at a time.  I think I will understand their mindset just a bit more now.  People, even students, have begun to greet each other with their favorite Bible passages about God\’s protection.  As a community, our spirits are good.  However, we do have some who are struggling.

Well, I want to make sure this goes before we loose power.  Thanks for your prayers.  If you e-mail us, and right now those e-mails are pretty special, please send a copy to us here at bobnloisgillespie@hotmail.com as well as a copy to lgillespie@ica.ed.ci. We\’re not getting mail at either place consistently, but each place occasionally.
