Good Aftenoon, November!

Wow! I can’t believe it’s November already. It is strange to think it is, indeed November here. Currently it’s about 32 degrees with beautiful sunshine! I normally associate November with cold wintery rain, cold winterywind, cold wintery sun and generally cold wintery winter! Oh yeah, you guys would know all about that, right?!

Well it’s again been a pretty busy weekend. Last night we hosted 5 extra people at our huose for dinner and the evening and we had company Saturday night as well. We went to church yesterdaymorning which was amazing. It was just so friendly and welcoming there, and a lady got ordained which was so lovely!
This morning I went to the HIV hospice again. We played games with the patients and chatted to them. Met a guy who has been in there for 4 years. It’s hard to see some of the other residents we know getting weaker and more tired. They are just so thin. There is a girl there who is 11 years old but looks about 6. I always feel a bit nervous before we go in just in case one of the patients isn’t there anymore. Was so good this morning to see all of them! It’s quite quiet in the hospice at the moment because a few of the patients went home last week! Praise God!
Hope you all had a good weekend. Check out the prayer corner as there’s lots you can pray for, and I hope you will add your request, or just how God is working in your life as well.
