Calling the Shots


Yesterday I made 200 Prayer bookmarks to hand out with letters asking for support to possible sponsors. Today I called the Health Dept. to get the necessary shots for travel in Uganda. The only mandatory shot is yellow fever, but to be on the safe side I am including typhoid, hepatitis A, and a prescription against malaria. I had been informed that shots would be $1,000 or more, hence the $4,500 on my handy-dandy thermometer. The total is actually $251 making my new goal $3,751! Wow, Uganda gets closer every day. Please continue to pray for me as I make my preparations, and while I am on the field. Thank you.

Typhoid - $64  one shot
Hepatitis A – 2 shots 6 months apart $38 a piece
Yellow fever – $101 one shot
Malaria prescription – $10 per fill
$251- Total

Phil 1:19-26 says
- For I know that this will turn out for my deliverance through your prayer and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, 20 according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. 21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. 22 But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. 23 For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. 24 Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you. 25 And being confident of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy of faith, 26 that your rejoicing for me may be more abundant in Jesus Christ by my coming to you again. - NKJV

In Christ,
David Greene
