Latest news from Foundation For His Ministry

Foundation for His Ministry Weekly Praise & Prayer Newsletter   Praise Reports:    .  After visiting with doctors in Canada, Oaxaca missionary Elaine Croft found out that what was thought to be a serious ear infection was actually not infected. We are grateful for answered prayers and quick attention from doctors - which we are told is a miracle in itself in Canada.             Elaine with her husband Ian  .  We recently received this report about Sergio, one of the missionaries at the Baja Mission who spent the summer in Wisconsin getting new prostheses:  Just thought you all would like to know, we heard from Dirk at the orphanage tonight.  He says he hasn't seen Sergio in the wheelchair since he got back. On his new legs, he assisted in digging the grave for a missionary who died at the orphanage, and he's on the rescue squad and the fire department the Mission operates for the whole area.  He's, also, driven a stick shift truck to deliver wheelchairs to those in need. It appears now because of all you have done and all of your prayers, that Sergio is living the life he always wanted to live. He's "one of the boys" and smiling all the time.             Sergio .  Keith Euhus, a long time supporter of the ministry, sent us this message:   Today my oncologist reviewed my recent CT scan, found no obvious remaining lymphoma, and declared me in remission! That doesn't mean I'm cured, since it typically returns/continues about 6 years from first treatment. But for now, I'm in remission!  God has been gracious! Thank you for your prayers these past two years.            Keith in Mexico .  For those in the Southern California area, Duff Rowden will be leading worship at our next prayer group dinner on November 7th at 6:00 at Lutheran Church of the Cross in Laguna Woods.
