September 5. A nice cool morning again. When we went for a walk, it was still cool out so we took the southern route where we would walk part of the time in the sunshine. The northern route is very shady, and I was feeling the coolness when we first started out. After our walk, I worked for a while on a craft project. Translation time was scheduled for 9:00, but Daddy had to take Christy to pick up a friend’s van. Her own van is in the church parking lot (unless Jeremy already picked it up) since it had some serious problems on the way to church last night. Later in the morning, I wrote a couple e-mails, got a couple greeting cards ready to mail, and got the August progress report written up. We did get to work on translation this afternoon and completed most of chapter 8 of Luke. While we were working, Fred came by to talk to Daddy again. (Please pray for Fred. He has some special needs spiritually and is looking in the wrong places to satisfy those needs). Then I made some soup for my supper; and while it was cooking and while I was eating it, I worked on lessons in Jon which Mike had asked for before we left PNG. There was quite a mountain of dishes again this evening. “….So Moses finished the work.” Exodus 40:33 Moses finished the work that God gave him to do. God has given us a work to do also. Should we not finish that work? September 6. Enjoyed our walk after breakfast in the cool morning air. The day warmed up quite a bit more today, temperatures going up into the 90’s again. The same is expected for the next few days. At least we have cool nights now. When we came back from our walk, I started getting my journal notes from last week ready for Connie. Then Daddy and I finished checking over the rest of Luke 8; and this afternoon, we started on Luke 9. The checking was a bit more difficult today so went quite a bit slower, but we were thankful for the Lord’s help in what He enabled us to do. At 10:15, Daddy, Connie, and I left for my appointment with Dr. Prime. Then we went up to GNC to get me some potassium. Gave the checkout lady a tract. She said she goes to Lily Baptist Church, but wanted to read the tract anyway. From GNC, we went to Believe in Abilities thrift store to see if the curtains were there that Christy and Connie had seen there before. They thought they would be nice curtains for their bedrooms. The curtains were gone; but I found a pretty long-sleeve light purple blouse and a velvety dark purple jumper with pretty embroidery along the bottom, and Connie found a spaghetti strainer that sits inside a saucepan. She wondered where it had been all her life. We also went over to the furniture section and looked at some kitchen chairs, but discovered they had gotten wet and we were concerned about mold. It was already lunch time when we got back home. After lunch, I finished getting journal notes ready and then sent them off to Connie. This evening, I started printing “Bai Mi Maritim Husat?” (Whom Shall I Marry) booklets, but the black ink is quite low so will fill the ink well tomorrow morning and then print some more.
